Cars are good, Actually

Totally different car!

Perfect... I did the gearbox and diff oil at 22.5k and other than that I’ve just done oil changes. It’s been awesome.

My e36 rally car wasn’t awful but it wasn’t exactly cheap. They made tons of them so junkyard parts are easy to get

Yeah I just ordered some Monroe severe ones from ebay. American cars are so cheap to get parts for.

Yeah I’m pretty sure it does have the air leveling suspension but in the aid it said the air pump wasn’t working anymore, so I guess it’s just acting like a standard suspension now.

Yeah but even being pushed off a cliff, vi would be greater than 0. But then really it would take time for the car to go vertical so the drag would be worse and it would end up even slower

Yeah for a northern car it’s incredible. They must have washed it every snowfall. It was a single owner car. The guy’s son works at a Chevy dealership so they put a new trans in when the original went out at 180k. They’ve also replaced the optispark. I’ve been reading about how terrible it is but just came across this

Your vertical velocity wouldn’t change. If you count the resultant then you get the square root( (horizontal v - drag*time)^2 + (David’s math)^2 ). The sticker just says “off a cliff” and doesn’t specify initial velocity.

Well it piqued my curiosity and I started googling. “Corvette” engine, posi, better gears, tons of cooling. Also not the typical rusted out truck or sketchy van. Wood paneling FTW!

You win! I just picked up a 95 for 2950. Gonna put this thing on and cruise with my race car

Fix the economy so people can find jobs and don’t have to resort to stuff that was made illegal 100 years ago in order to criminalize minorities, and not have to worry about it

Under 80s laws car companies either needed airbags or some way to force people to wear seat belts, hence the automatic ones. The problem is that there was nothing stopping you from not putting the lap belt on, and crashing with only the shoulder belt actually increased chance of injury

hmmmmmmm maybe because the roads are flooded that the mythical supply won’t fall out of the sky to counter the price gouging and people are just trying to survive

Rally is so much fun! Buy a cheap car on Craigslist and race it!

You should go look up some videos of WRC Finland

Yeah... no. I wouldn’t even trust this place for a WRC super special. It looks like it’s getting chewed up just from his few passes

Well great news then, have you heard of the Subaru BRZ?

I’m happy I finally got to see it up close

This year’s was great
