I love this. We've had so much fun over here with #foxnewsfacts. That 'expert' on the telly wrote a grovelling apology and donated to the children's hospital. I would rather they declined to accept donations from racists but hey ho.

The videos prove that the weather here is Sunni one moment, Shiite the next!

It needs a charge...a charge from your credit card in the sum of approximately $3,000...

When I bought my truck I was told "the AC isn't working, probably just needs a charge" I attempted to charge one time to no avail and after 3 years of owning the truck realized there was no compressor.

I commend the pilot who put the power to her and went around.

Wow, these pilots are really brave...

most CL cars simply need a charge or "just a $40 part installed" which as often as not, comes with the car. Saves me $40!

I agree, and that's what I did with my car (we had the car since new). To be fair, some people are so clueless about cars/strapped for cash, they will sell the car the instant something starts acting up, and "diagnose" the problem with something they heard someone say. They hear about AC needing charge, so they assume…

Same thing with carbureted motorcycles when the seller says, "Just needs carbs cleaned".

HP+ pads are awful. Picture 1. HP+ on my FoST. Picture 2. DTC-60

I swapped my fluid and pad and they still got too hot. There's no air in there and the torque vectoring system just adds to the problem. Most of the time it's fine. I boiled one caliper, once with StopTech 660 fluid on Hawk DTC-60s and Centric High Carbon blanks on the second day of high performance driving. I'm going…

The Focus ST is by most accounts an excellent hot hatch, but numerous owners commented that they have a tendency to cook their brakes on track. The brake actuated torque vectoring that's great on the road probably isn't doing anyone any favors on the track.

In Berlin the bike line is strictly enforced and has said hanging lights. They are miniature in scale and super cute, but obeyed.

Since it's corrective stability control that's heating the brakes, the case could be made that if you're cooking the brakes on the track, you're driving in such a manner that you're relying on the system instead of driving to avoid the system i.e. not driving as well or as fast as possible.

Now if we can just make lights that hang above the street, letting cyclists know when to proceed and when to stop for other traffic.

Not really disagreeing with you, but I had a chance to take a buddies bone stock EVO IIX out to a track day a few months ago. I spent 5 laps catching and passing a guy in an SLS.. He actually got upset when I told him the car was bone stock. That being said I was blown away with how well the EVO did.

The rotors make basically no difference. Pads and fluid would solve it.

Can't have a securely mounted in-car cam? Why? Cause COTA?

Yep. As I'm sure @SidewaysOnDirt is aware, Toyobaru owners complain about the brakes at track days all the time. There are hardly any cars, let alone affordable sports cars, that come with a track ready brake setup from the factory.

Luckily for me, the FR-S stock pads are actually pretty adequate for autocross. :)
