Freudian?

$400 is crazy expensive. Here in the UK you can get rolling for 1/8th of that.

Proper Italian policemen spend most of the day posing in sunglasses.

But it’s still not the OG Portland. Portland, ME was named after the Isle of Portland on the south coast of England. Portland on the south coast of England is famous for a few things: a quarry which gives us Portland stone and Portland cement, a prison, a lighthouse, and a kid’s TV show about the lighthouse.

I’d argue it’s risk rather than danger people want. Crashes are usually awesome, but nobody likes people getting hurt. The trick is to get the (non-manufactured) incidents while ensuring that nobody suffers an injury.

I am an ignoramus when it comes to motorcycles, and the immediate question that came into my head was “wouldn’t it have been easier to do a normal CBR1000RR with some stickers?”; after all, the occasions when you’ll be able to prove that your $199,000 motorcycle is anything but a CBR1000RR with some stickers are going…

If you can say “War with a peer nation isn’t going to happen”, why can’t the US military?

That’s right - it’s 50/50 front and rear with no torque biasing. Fitting an electronic diff is going to make the cars massively quicker, especially in tight corners.

The electronic center diff will make these cars much faster than any power increase ever would - perfect power distribution at all times will make a huge difference.

I was hoping the Azerbaijan race would be around one of the insane Soviet offshore platforms they have there. Sadly not.

#COTD.

Isn’t it a Maserati Ghibli underneath though? Add the time spent on the platform engineering too and you must be up to, ooh, two years and seven months.

He’s beckoning us to come closer to him, in a pub toilet. Seems legit.

Is he giving us the finger?

Their readers will be all “The sills aren’t scraping on the pavement. This is bullshit.”

The problem was that the communication was so detailed that the driver was just following commands rather than doing the work themselves. Hopefully these restrictions will mean more screwups, which are always exciting.

I can see a bit of an issue with this.

It’s there for Euro-shaped licence plates, which have to be fitted front and back. there would be nowhere to put it otherwise.

I guess the biggest problem would be the back door - It’d need some fairly serious re-engineering to allow it to open while on the water.

Here you go! This is what Citroen’s crazy suspension can do with a flick of a switch.
