This is subtle.

It was a pretty good show, then it started becoming “Americanized” a season or two ago. In my eyes, it had already begun its death spiral. The focus changed from practical builds for resale to slightly goofy, gimicky things. Less technical, more drama, etc.

It really takes you out of it when gravity and inertia don’t exist. It’s really neat getting to jump from building to building, it after a while it’s gonna get old.

Great. Now I have to leave Canada, buy a bike and grow a beard.

Keith was okay. He touched his balls a lot, but otherwise had no bad habits.

It’s from Ancient Greek mythology. Chiron was a centaur. Shakespeare also usd the name in Titus Andronicus. Chiron was the shitty, spoiled son of Tamora, Queen of the Goths.

KY-ron.The KY is like shy without the “s”. Ron is pronounced like the name Ron, who coincidentally is everyone’s shitty co-worker.

It seems to me that what he and other asshats like him are afraid of are reprisals when we honkys aren’t in control anymore. There’s a price to be paid for hundreds of years of colonialism and cultural genocide. But, I don’t think that will be the case. As a matter of fact, I believe whoever is in charge, regardless…

It looks like a late 90s concept interior from Pontiac. Could be the lighting, but it appears to be made of plastic and Play-Doh.

Oh shush. You’re one of those troglodytes still using imperial measurement, kinda. I say kinda, because you got those weird little sissy size American gallons, not manly gallons like the rest of us, and we’re so cool we don’t even use em.

So much for the legendary Ferrari timing belt service.

This appeals to so many of my inner nerds. Like, 27 of them.

I race RC cars (rubber tire on Ozite carpet). WD40 makes an excellent traction compound. Wipe your tires down with it, let them sit for 10 minutes then wipe off. It softens the rubber very nicely, just like actual traction compounds. It’s also great for removing tire marks from the other cars that have used you as a…

So...basically the car backfires on purpose and breaks IKEA wine glasses?

Hey now. The 1980s, teenage version of me still has a boner for this thing, even if the current, getting too damned old me thinks the wheels are cheesy and it could use a few modern detail on the exterior.

Sadly, nothing of the sort happens anywhere near me. (Calgary, AB) Local track shut down years ago, because a new subdivision got built and people didn’t like the noise. There’s no such thing as an empty parking lot with owners willing to let anyone even park on a Sunday. I’ve heard we occasionally have timed rallies…

My gawd! That was better than almost anything I’ve seen in years and definitely more exciting than F1 or NASCAR these days. They both need to be replaced by this.

Hell yeah. These were the awesomest Saabs.

I could agree more. I love oddball engines and/or odd engine swaps. My fox body LTD was going to get a 300 straight six or a 4BT if it weren’t for peer pressure. I ended up sticking. 5.0 v8 in there and regret it to this day.

Can’t say that I agree this is easier or simpler than starting an engine on a stand or even just sitting on the floor. No pedals, gauges, steering wheel....what the hell is with the steering wheel anyway? Is this one of those weird modular electronics things?
