    Yes, its a combination of oil and air.

    air helps a lot, tho. cooling fins increase surface area for better convection, and vents are designed to flow air through. You can see the fins below:

    Yes, something like 46/54 F/R is optimal. F1 cars for example. More weight in the rear allows for better braking, giving more margin for loading up the front tires because the fronts start “light”, and better traction out of corners.

    That, or a really, really nice version of the truck they currently have.

    I dont think Powerball winners buy Ferraris. I saw one of those “lottery changed my life” shows and a guy bought 12 near-identical new Mustangs. I think THAT is your powerball demographic.

    the US has doesnt have the ‘ring but it does have ovals - we could call it something like North American Stock Car Racing?

    The 918 Spyder was 1.5 PSI too low on the front left.

    Its like a house on wheels but is somehow beautiful!

    My Dad had a 1947 Triumph Roadster, this was in the 90s and I was a teenager, I drove it quiet a bit. It was an archaic car even in 1947 - pre-war design in a time when England was basically smashed and broken from the war. It was pretty conventional to drive - 3 pedal and column shifter. It did not accelerate or

    You mean like Syline HICAS rear wheel steering, right? RIGHT!!??

    this was not unintentional - Early Celicas, RXs (not 7s), Zs, even early 70s SR5 all intentionally mimicked American muscle car design elements.

    And most RS owners have other cars, with 3 pedals. I have a 991 GT3 and love the PDK. Would not change it. If I got a .2 it would also be PDK. I have an 85 targa with funky floor-hinged pedals and its also a hoot, in a different way. I’m not getting .2 as I dont think the difference is big enough to justify switching.

    Porsche have never sold a GT3 or RS with manual and PDK available. 997 was all manual, and 991.1 was all PDK, so the data is not yet available as to what will sell the most, but my money is on the PDK far outselling the manual.

    Having owned a 991 CS and a 991 GT3, I can assure you the Gt3 is not just marginally better. It’s a completely different character car, especially on the track.

    Yep - making the Vauxhall Viva cool was a tall order, but they did it.

    Lazy white people are horrible at attending rallies, but great at voting.

    Oh and the vauxhall Magnum 2,3 Estate:

    There are some cool Vauxhall’s,,,

    Airlines make all their money off me. First class passengers. The cattle are just making up the numbers. On international flights, you see the first/biz/premium getting bigger and bigger and then 20 or so rows at the back...

    The 918 was on Michelin Cup 2s - same as on a GT3 or RS. Street legal, but a good track tire with a 180AAA tire wear rating.
