Forget the engine, look at that test cell!

The TVR Cerbera Speed 12 could have been a fantastic product if it didn't have enough power to break the dyno and be undrivable in basically any condition.

Median car price seems like a more relevant statistic, for the same reason we look at median home income, not average.

Got to figure out how to put it in dyno mode, or usually there's a fuse or some fuses you can pull to turn off the stability control.

Of course since it was a Dynojet, you do have to remember to take away about 10% to get back to reality.

I thought they had gone under already. I know they have sold off some capital equipment, such as their dyno.

makes way more sense than this:

that's what I was thinking. If $20k covers 3-4 people, and not $20k/person, then this is really a bargain compared to "normal" 1st class.

I saw someone die.

I'm not very familiar with these engines, but that does not look like the right carb for a 90 HP engine. Am I right in thinking that's a 4bbl Holley? And did these cars really come with those?

I'm a big fan of CAE's shifters

That is the most laid-back in-car audio ever to come from a rally car. I defy yous to find more nonchalant driver and co-driver.

I hate to be the chart & graph equivalent of a grammar nazi, but nothing gets my goat worse than a graph without labeled axes and units. A legend would be nice, too.

In Colorado at least, they angle the plow to the left or right, depending on where they are in the road. Passing a plow on the right that is working the left side is a must if you ever want to get to where you are going.

That's been my desktop background at work since we got our first snow.

It was cold enough at my house that the digital displays in my Audi refused to work at all until the heat got going.

Not the weirdest ever, but there was one of these parked near a really gross looking hotel (which is now condemned and being torn down) that looked like it hadn't moved in 20 years and was being lived in.

And the crowd goes wild!

I hate it when someone claims an engine is "too powerful for a dyno". It just means they couldn't be bothered. There are many, many dynos out there that can handle over 1000 HP.

I'd like to know what kind of dyno they used to determine that it has 5000 HP. I don't know of any engine dynos out there that can handle that much power and still spin at anything near normal speeds.
