“Hyundai Accent WRC”

Easy...

Fully. The pre steroid version (the one we all know and love) is drop dead gorgeous.

The latter. Simply put, bombs are heavy as shit so need lots of wing area.

The cold war is over, we won. The soviet union fell to pieces trying to compete. Putin obviously wants to blow some shit up, for dealing with that I think ‘stockpiling’ conventional weapons is a grand idea.

Ain’t nothing cold about invasion, son.

That’s the North Atlantic in this video. Small ocean, but can be very mean. I heard somewhere that Iceland has the most consistant 30ft+ surf on the planet. Wouldn’t doubt it. Biggest wave ever *recorded* is in the Atlantic, roughly 100ft. The Gulf Stream puts a lot of warm water right into a lot of cold water, which…

Intense is right. Plowing over swells with throttles on full feeling like you’re not making headway but actually being pushed backwards does get the heart pumping...

Find a ferry that runs in the winter, wait for a storm that’s big but won’t make them stop running, and it can be pretty great. It can also suck like nothing else on earth. Of the “promise to the lord to never do ‘x’ again if you please make it stop” type sucking. Won’t be like the video above, but still amazing with…

Even if that tug couldn’t move it very far (I bet it could), keeping the carrier from going broadside into the swell would probably be the biggest issue. As long as its pointed into the wind and into the swell things should be okay. If the carrier gets sideways (broadside) to the swell it can start to rock, and that…

As a cool wooden tribute to a beautiful car, I can dig it. But, as a $20,000 1:1 model? Have to vote nope.

No, really. The ‘emergency’ that it is meant for is a brake failure. If the pedal goes to the floor, then you pull the handle. Pulling the handle in a car with a properly working brake system is for fun only.

From a quick search it looks like this is the ‘short course’ record which is fought for between production road cars.

It’s got a flywheel in the bike and the stand is a hand crank. You could get it to spin silly fast and that thing would take off like a bat out of hell and launch any ramp you set up with gusto. With minimal setup you could get it to do full-on clean jumps 5-10ft long and land and ride away.

Title should read: “How to be a Douche”

By that metric, neither are any of the cars in this article... I think the (tongue in cheek) point was that trailering lets you drive crazy-ass vehicles. ‘Race’ cars don’t like traffic, idling at lights, lots of stops and starts and all that goes with driving on the road.

Regardless, you can’t drive it on the street. (Zonda R, yeah?) The point being made is that trailering cars lets you drive crazy ass machines. I’ve managed to get plates for ‘race’ vehicles before and it sucks! ‘Race’ cars don’t like traffic, lots of stops and starts, excessive idling, and so on.
