‘Base camp’ isn’t that far away. Porsche trucked theirs up as high as they could go then drove the rest. Not like they’re doing hundreds of miles.

Porsche’s attempt sounds all high and mighty (pun intended) until you realise the previous record holder was not a multi million dollar factory effort, but two locals in a lifted Suzuki. The ‘experimental’ 911 with portals beat their record by a measly 46 meters.

Yes. Well they used the vehicle to install emergency radio transmitters:

If they’d done this in a 1969 Dodge Charger, you’d be flipping your shit right now.

You still watched to the end. What does that say about you?

Correction: the narrower the powerband you have, the more gears you need. 

Update: I just asked ChatGPT to write how the evils of capitalism caused a Bentley with too many gears to kill people, and ChatGPT refused!

Donuts are fried. 

Reference to a Rage Against The Machine song about cops.

Stanley is replacing a car for someone that purchased a travel cup from them. State Farm won’t even pay someone that has an insurance policy with them

I want to see how fast a pit crew can put on chains.

For fear of sounding like a Tesla fan boy, where is the struggling? A couple tire squeals? That’s it?

So what you’re saying is that it got you from A to B quickly and drama-free, and this is a horrible bad thing, and somehow doesn’t make it count as infrastructure? The cost of construction was a huge cost savings over expensive traditional infrastructure, less congested than surface traffic, and much quicker than
