fuck yeah that is amazing

I NEED IT! SO GOOD! HELMET, SUIT, ALL ON POINT!!!

That bothers you, but not shrimp vs prawn?

You can’t move an entire assembly line overnight

why is it called a beach?

what the hell is this on the monterey slideshow

The first gen was also sold as a Plymouth Arrow Truck! This is my absolute unit. 2.0 4 speed

Way overpriced. If it was a nice LT1 wagon maybe it could command that price

the indy 500 does only allow the top 33(?) qualifiers into the race

the wheel controls on snowrunner are terrible. The older games actually let you use the clutch and everything, was so much better

The pedals are a bigger upgrade than the wheel. I still use a G27 wheel but I have the clubsport 3 pedals with load cells, and they immediately made a big difference. Going to force instead of travel for braking gives you much better feedback.

Definitely felt this while driving my FR-S. It’s cozy

Seatbelts do 90% of the work in a crash though, and have equally complex engineering

the 150k car was basically just to raise money and pay for the development of the high volume car. pretty common move for startups

the solar was the whole thing. the company founders did that university solar challenge. it also let them use a smaller battery (and smaller everything) and still get decent range

Are you telling me this guy might be insecure?

I work in brake controls tuning ABS and traction control. The rivian would blow some of the tires off since there’s no coupling between them, it would be pretty hard to steer. For the same torque demand even if the rears are working the fronts would be to the moon. For the lightning it would likely go to brake-only

You would just blow the tires off. There’s no rev limiter to hit so they could just spin up and basically go to 100+mph. And especially on the ford with an open diff, it would be terrible

But is it better than DRS? (rhetorical question, of course not)

Yep, just got back from Lake Superior Performance Rally
