I’ve never heard of thermal inertia before. Maybe you’re thinking of specific heat?

I have seen the traffic officers issue blocking the box tickets while on foot. Those are definitely moving violations since you get a bunch of points with one of those.

I have been in a vehicle that got pulled over by NYPD plain clothes officers driving a prius. It can happen. It was one of the funniest things I have seen.

Sounds like the F1 Canadian Grand Prix.

I was at the races yesterday and that piston powered boat sounded mean! I’m glad you posted the details about that beast.

This, http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/cto/566487… has been keeping me up at night. I can’t sleep until I have one.

I lived in Hoboken (I know, not NYC but close enough) and had an e39 M5 when I lived there. All of my city friends thought I was nuts. They didn’t think I was nuts when they wanted a ride to the beach or when you happen to have a craving for a philly cheesesteak at some random hour and want to pretend that you are…

You’re lucky you weren’t parked in NYC for this. In NYC they typically tow every car off each street the POTUS motorcade travels down. For security reasons they also do not put up no parking signs so that the motorcade route is not given away. So essentially what happens is you think you parked your car legally, which…

If you end up in Tribeca there is usually a 2-door G wagen parked near the park where W. Broadway and 6th ave intersect.

NY/NJ people add badges similar to your description of the Brits. There are tons of Mercs and BMWs with their respective AMG and ///M badges which the dealer will put on for an extra 1000. Or you could be this guy....

You are forgetting the cost of the consulting traffic engineer to perform his/her study and re-phasing of the traffic light scheme. If the current controllers do not have the ability to perform what the new traffic light phasing should be then those have to be replaced too.

Are you sure it isn’t just the aspect ratio? Doesn’t look vertical to me.

So an algorithm was able to prove that each driving style of 15 people correlated to the driving style of that person. I’m not impressed. That’s like saying a dog can smell the scent of a person on that person...

Thanks for leaving and making room on the 456

I can’t wait to see all of the craigslist ads in NYC for bikes/quads with rebuilt titles. Most likely half of those already were considered rebuilt......

Exactly! No state income tax, guns everywhere, and lifted pickup trucks... I saw some dude the other day with a pet goat while he was protesting against capitalism. This place is great.

Pretty sure anyone from Jersey has a grandparent that’s 100% Italian. I was surprised there are no Italians once I moved out of NJ.

Go Isles!!

A vehicle cannot weight more........the force that the vehicle applies to the tow vehicle can be greater than its weight when trying to pull it out.
