Yeah, but this F40 will likely see less daylight than a vampire.

I think Baltimore being "Charm City" has them beat.

I’ve always said the Lotus Elise used the wrong Toyota engine. It should have featured the 5th generation 3S-GTE. Not quite the same as this engine but close to 300hp and that’s before Lotus’s customary re-tune.

It’s “That Guy!” time.

“Philadelphia” translates from ancient Greek as “brotherly love”

Is engineering not science?

Funny you mention 07/08, the two seasons with the least amount of overtaking in F1 history. Also, Kimi never won the championship, the McLaren’s lost it.

I’ve become friends with guys that started a local shop and one is a master volvo mechanic.

I’m going to go all “AND ANOTHER THING!” again.

Also going to add a fun fact about the Hanford device and car speeds.

Slow your roll, Blackstock.

At the 2019 Indy 500, average race speed was 175.794 mph, while the qualifying was 229.992 mph. Twenty years ago, average race speed was 153.176 mph and qualifying was 225.179 mph

Seriously, at a Volvo dealer $1000 will get you an oil change and a 12-point safety inspection. 

I don’t really understand the 918 love. The Carrera GT evokes much more emotion than the 918 ever has. AWD hybrid, yawn. I guess the top exit exhausts are cool.

Those are different models (and makes) with the same name. RX is right. If two vehicles are of the same model, they must be of the same make. Just because two models have the same name didn't mean they are the same.

Pretty sure that’s a Lambo dude.

That has to be a fake. It isn’t nearly as ugly as a real one.

Every Dyno I’ve seen of a car with B58 has been 320+hp at the wheels. Just check stock Dyno for M240i, 340i or 440i. None really make the rated 320-335hp at crank really. I think the B58 really makes 350- 380 depending on variant and tune

Came here to say #3, every manufacturer does that. Ford clearly sent out ringers to the press at the ecoboost launch; setting 0-60 times that haven’t been repeatable in a stock EB.

3. But Ferrari is run currently by a bunch of shitstains passing old cars as new, not letting journalists set lap times on their cars, giving cease and desist letters to owners, controlling who buy the damn cars, and selling way more hats and accessories than they should. 

15% is an old rule of thumb but it isn’t far from the truth and the drivetrain must lose Something. Percentage losses aren’t a horrible assumption either as its relatively unrealistic to assume friction somehow diminishes with higher loads in most of the things that create load in the drivetrain
