The Mustang Cobra II. One of the best suspensions of the era (How many Mustang II front suspension swaped hot rods are there?) relatively small size compared to the prior generation Mustang, and while the 302 was choked down to hell (because, well, 70s America) it was still a 302 Windsor with the capability to make a…
Funfact: these are all remnants of a carrier-pigeon based service known as UberBoat where privateer mariners could be summoned for quick trips up and down the Eastern Seaboard. The company fought cartels and legal action for years, but worst of all was covering up their accident history, as evidenced by this story.
I'd like to reply with a modicum of common sence. First of I'm British, two carriers is all we need. You however need more, 11 massive ones maybe not. It might be benificial to have some smaller ones like our Queen Elizebeth. Just to point out, the fact the author raised this question as eloquently as he did does not…
As an engineer who works with others who take more of a pure science approach a lot of the time, I always think of an old analogy: An engineer and a mathematician are on one side of a room and there is a beautiful woman on the other. They are allowed to approach her, but they may only go half way to her with each…
1) I state here, flatly, in case some of you don't know, that the maximum acceleration a car can achieve, when the coefficient of frction between its tires and the road is 1, is the acceleration of gravity for the planetary object you are racing on — unless, of course, you strap on rockets. On Earth, that acceleration…
Your move, Shelby!

Are other video games following this trend of reality-based concepts? I mean, imagine "MLB 2k15" where you could alter the anabolic cocktails of your players depending on available team funds. It'd be a full, holistic team management experience!
Man, I miss the old GT-Rs.
Chevy Cobalt, assuming you (or your family) can get in on the action.
it's like boobs vs booty...the argument will continue for ages. In terms of aesthetics. I follow bodybuilding. Aesthetics is a word that is thrown around more times than basketball at a Globetrotters game. It is used to describe physiques that have a certain artistic symmetry and shape to them—-aesthetically pleasing…
I wouldn't call it ugly as much as underwhelming. When I saw one in person at the auto show, all I could think was 'Meh'. Did not stir or excite like a Ferrari should. Too much wind tunnel testing and too little design effort.
I have a lot of issues with the 458. The overall shape doesn't work, compared with the 430, they shifted everything forward a bit. Killed the overall line. The wheels are too big, don't look right. The headlights are too busy, the back end is funky, weird vents, and the front badge - have you ever seen it up close…
Ugliest? Ever? Nah. I've shared some other uglies here.
I think this one off 1953 166MM with Abarth coachwork is uglier.
It's not a meme. It's a turn of phrase. This is a meme.
Extreme airplane expedition, well, for me, considering the extreme danger and the extreme audacity, he had to have had, Mathias Rust, 1987, Red Square landing!
Mathias Rust flying to Red Square in Moscow as a teenager, through the entire Soviet air defence network. Pretty amazing, if you ask me.
