About a month ago I was present when a road train clipped a pole at a crossroads causing a wire break that dropped two sections onto the roadway. Two other cars stopped and between us we managed to block off the road a way back from the intersection. It was dark so we turned on hazard lights on all the cars and just…

Good start, now lets see these violence loving assholes banned from everything else.

Fun fact, this style of VW transaxle is simple to reverse the output. All you need to do is flip the diff 180deg. I’ve seen this done for Formula V and its really easy. Just need to redo the shimming for the offset on the ring to pinion clearance and it just works!

“Hopefully soon people won’t feel inclined to roll around with gasoline stockpiles in their cars and get into fights in fuel lines.”

Brings to mind a recent-ish drug trade I witnessed.

“The skilled pilots of the Metroliner remain cool as cucumbers considering that they just lost a chunk of their plane.”

In a similar vein I also committed a brain fart evaluation of the roof rack ability of my 58 Kombi, this was in my early driving years.

So this is for people who think fake tan and a comb over are a fine look.  

Judging by the skill level on display in the “Mad Maxican front end” this is good for parts only.

Go for it, hell, you’re probably over qualified compared to most of them. Only problem is the number of cool sounding electrical pioneer names to use for your company is getting slim. I don’t think Coulomb is taken yet...

At this point, if you can still put your pants on right way around you’re doing ok...

Yes DAF did too, but I did some Googling and found what I was looking for. The original Das Kleine Wunder was a scooter with a belt drive CVT.

Was it DKW that had that crazy CVT that used rubber belts? 

I didn’t say it authenticates, I said it associates with anything it sees. WiFi operates in a promiscuous manner searching for AP’s in range, the process it goes through when it finds one is called association. This entails an exchange of a whole bunch of information that you have no control over including your device…

Cars with fucking WiFi, stupid.

Road trip from Adelaide to Perth one time, late at night like 1am maybe missed the turn to Ceduna and didn’t realise until I notice the ocean in the moonlight and a sign informing me Port Lincoln was only a few km’s away. Decide to drive on through around the coast as turning back was pointless, dawn breakfast at Port…

Goats eyes have rectangular pupils, and goats are pure evil.
