When I was in College in the 1990s two of my college professors previously worked for Chrysler and Ford. Both told stories of how it was common in the 198o for the big three to BUY Japanese cars and tear them straight a part, right down to structural welds. It still happens today, i’m sure.

Can a car with zero power move itself? No.

Torque at the wheels, to be specific, but that’s a product of the horsepower from the engine and the gearing ratio.

The NSX, definitely, but the GTR is actually still within a pretty similar formula. 6 cylinders, 2 turbos, 4 driven wheels, 2 doors

We’re never getting to the point where every vehicle is a fully autonomous electric car. Maybe long after we’re dead

Sorry, that’s a targa, not a roadster. Learn how bodystyles work, Musk.

Jesus! That is far and away the fastest car I’ve ever not wanted.

0-60 in 1.9... I think they just did.

GTA super car? I’m actually ok with that.

I’m waiting for Tesla to announce a flying car.

I mean shit, he got me.

It will go from 0-60 in two poin... ONE POINT NINE seconds... Do one hundred and fif.... TWO HUNDRED and fifty miles per hour... And have a three hund... SIX HUNDRED and twenty mile range... Yeah...That’s it...

Hey! Look over here! (Don’t look at our failure to mass produce the car for the plebes that we promised)

Grip = exit speed = fast.

This x100. My HS was 99% white. The 1% black got harassed by the town cops ALL THE EFFING TIME. Like, pulled over every week for DWB (Driving While Black if you cannot figure it out). If you cannot look at the facts and see the racism, then you are a part of the problem.

To protect...their interests, and serve...you tickets.

A comedian has a good bit about this for avoiding dangerous kid event chaperones. You don’t want the guy whose hand immediately goes up, because kids events are objectively not fun (meaning he might be a predator). You want the guy who is forced to do it by his wife, or grumblingly accepts even though he has football…

I have done the same thing. Last time i got pulled over in the D.C. area because the cop claimed he saw me in an HOV lane earlier (news flash: car companies make more than one red car, ya know in hopes to turn a profit) and mentioned i was being recorded I said ok so are you and my entire trip since I left work. So…

And this is why unmarked cop cars should be illegal. To me, they scream, “we’re cops but are too afraid to identify as such, so we are going to hide.”

I feel like the US policing problem could be solved by basically just finding anyone who really wants to be a cop and not allowing them to be a cop. It seems like an unhealthy percentage of police are just in it to lord their authority over people. Also, I realize not all cops, but sure as shit a bunch of them.
