@Prawo Jazdy and The Velocity Trumpets: aw shucks

One of the nice parts about the 'Ring is that it's way closer to a real world scenario than most tracks. It's incredibly long with tons of variation and limited visibility. It's not glass smooth and filled with fancy runoff areas. It's sorta the anti-track track.

How should I raise my kids?

@stoke™, now with more Alcon!: A 22 year old parent is still a parent.

@EMTtech: The "service position" is what the dealer expects you to assume when it comes time to pay for a timing belt change.

@McMike: This is definitely the first engine that popped into my mind.

@Jeb_Hoge: If you look around for V8 E34s, you'll find that most of them are still on their original engines. Anything that *usually* goes to 200K miles is nowhere NEAR worst-engine-ever.

@dculberson: Murders are hard to keep off the books but I've heard enough anecdotal evidence of women being basically told to fuck off by the police that it's impossible to believe any published crime stats.

Wow, how wrong I was. My liberal bias reared its head there for a minute. Reading the headline, I initially assumed the plane was owned by an oil company.

@snap_understeer_ftw: Have you priced MK1's lately? This is pretty good for what clean ones are running these days.

Lots of cars look awesome as they age, but if the point is that the car looks younger than it actually is, you'd be hard pressed to pick something other than a Bangle design. Almost everything about the '02 E65 worked its way in to other cars. After 8 years, it still looks brand new. Pre-Bangle bimmers look great,…

@spiegel1: Gates, as a high school student, would get up at 2am to go code a mainframe at a hospital that wasn't being used from 2am-6am. For fun.

So, Audis still can't oversteer, eh?

@dangertree: Note the similar trap speeds but much lower ET for the electric.

BUT WILL IT HAVE POP UP HEADLIGHTS?

@tonyola: This is a classic car. You might as well fault a 356 for being slower than a new GT3. :)

@Engineerman: The M3 is faster, but that's just not the point here.

@Elhigh: You make the mistake of assuming the car would be driven.

@SlowMo: The 85th percentile rule has become engineering dogma without being backed by good science.

@tonyola: Airbags deployment speeds/forces in the USA are made strong enough to support an unbelted passenger, true, but that doesn't mean they're not still useful for belted ones.
