Checks date: not April 1st... and I thought unicycles were peak hipster. I guess I was wrong.

I love the SLR, but it is tame compared to the batshit insane CLK-GTR.

Shoot the hostage.

I expect an elaborate barricade to at least involve 2 toasters.

Are we calling that “elaborate”?

First born’s kneecaps.

No food because if you take either of your hands off the wheel at any time you are guilty of reckless driving and will immediately die.

As a small add on to this that wasnt mentioned is that drafting basically deletes all the air from the nose of the following car. This can rapidly increase the running temperate of the cooling system. If you notice, many drivers that are following in the draft for the restrict plate races (Talladega and Daytona) will…

All of racing is a compromise.  I’m simply amazed these 358 cubic inch pushrod V-8s can spin at 9,000+ RPM, adding the fact that they are doing it at 290-300 degrees F is even more amazing.

So compromise longevity for performance in an engine that only needs to live one race. Got it. 

It was sunlight reflecting off clouds, and perhaps the pilots were initially mistaken in their recollections and could use some more time to collect their thoughts and give a more accurate account that is reflective of their current rank and career ambitions. 

My vote? Time-traveling tourists. Sightings are increasing because we’re getting closer to WWIII, a popular destination in time for history buffs.

Nothing to see here. It is just swamp gas and weather balloons.

If you have a passenger, you have three.

A buddy’s experience with a 550i where a lot of things started going wrong at 60k in spite of the 2012 updates makes me wary of any BMW with an early iteration of the N63.

This is what I want to read here. Real world reliability of these things. I like BMW’s but I like them with warranties. A complex BMW (which twin turbo’s is) without a warranty is a problem. 

One could say that it is idiotic to buy such a long car with truck engine that only seats two.

It does read: 

“He says he spotted the car on Interstate 10 near Cabazon, California, roughly 90 miles east of Los Angeles.”

At least the wheel arches are bad on both sides!
