It looks like a shitty, cheap and ugly rental Camaro that’s been in a terrible accident. I quite like the look of the current generation Corvette but this...How many more months or years before GM needs another bailout?

Looks like a Camaro backed into a Pepboys.
Why would a sidewall be more effective at connecting a contact patch to a rim than a couple hundred individual spokes that connect the full width of the tread to the full width of the wheel?
Old 2-stroke Detroits were notorious for this; bog the engine down, it hits to almost TDC, then runs backwards, scavenging oil from the leaky Roots blower, and just won’t stop even with the power and fuel shut off. It’s the reason why a lot of trucks back then had those exhaust flappers- to stop runaways.
That video is eerie from about 2:50 to 3:34, it sounds like a moaning beast that is on fire, but won’t die. That was amazing to see.
Dyno operator needed to hit the master brake stop switch as soon as it went bang. And get some real fire suppression equipment.

Or the J10.
Let’s go! Pedal through the metal!
I can’t fathom being in possession of a car such as this and not driving it. I constantly have the urge to go for a drive, and I don’t even have anything all that special. Walking past this in my garage everyday for 25 years and just smiling and moving on would be a physical impossibility for me.
It’s OK, you’re amongst friends. You can admit it.
That is exactly the problem. The MCAS wasn’t even in the manual, neither the Pilots Manual nor, apparently, the FCOM for the plane itself. Some airlines weren’t even told about it. Southwest and American Airlines pilots learned about it in a roundabout fashion. The only saving grace is that, again apparently, they…
Yes sorry, I was not clear. In order to pull 4g, it needs to have sufficient down force, which requires it to be at speed. So it’s only pulling that in high speed corners. And of course I am talking about lateral and longitudinal g-forces, not vertical.
