Shit, I used to live a few blocks away from number 9, and I didn't even think of it, because it was so routine for me.

H-click.

Americans would say, "what's 'whilst'? And, what's a 'clutch'"?

"steer into the skid." This made a lot of sense in the '60s, but nobody who hasn't done some front-wheel-drive rally has any idea that this means that in a front wheel skid you actually have to turn the wheel away from the direction you want to go. And since 90% of the appliances on the road today have built-in…

See, Santa's elf didn't actually get drivers to slow down. He just generated revenue for a municipal bureaucracy. The only effective way to get drivers to slow down in a safe way is to not design roads with a 45 speed limit that make drivers feel like the appropriate speed to go is 75. Let the road tell the story…

Why are they all so awful?

It's raining, and the track is wet.

The buffalo Pontiac.

I used to have a tire pyrometer. I thought that made me a nerd. But then I met a guy who had handbuilt a rig with three tire pyrometers with the sensors evenly spaced on a rack made out of kebab skewers, so he could measure inside, middle, and outside tire temperatures at the same time.

I swear I've seen a picture, which the internet is not polite enough to provide right now, where he's got his prosthetic legs on, and the right one is green and the left one is red. I think it was a promo picture for the BMW he was racing like 3 years ago.

It's nice to see all the Supra love in this thread. Supras are awesome.

Actually, I think it would be nice if he would stick to trailers.

If you want to turn it into a Tim Horton's, you should make it a DeTomaso dealership.

In reply to pdoten, since apparently "this comment cannot be replied to because it's too short," I would point out that #6 might also need to come with a new head gasket. I just put one on my '86 1/2, and I've never been happier.

H-click.

NP. One of the best redneck driveway projects I've seen in a long time. The tiniest violin in the world is playing a sad, sad song about the door panels.

I kind of like the fact that they call it the "12C" at some point, showing that at least they haven't been brainwashed by the marketing department to call it the "McLaren MP4-12C (Registered Trademark)" at every possible opportunity. With a car name that stupid, you've got to very quickly allow nicknames to crop up…

That's an awful lot of money. And I'm like 6'3, so I don't see myself fitting into it. But I can't call it a crack pipe, because it's just too beautiful.

The SL and SL1 were the single cam, which was 85 hp until 1995. The SL2 was the twin cam. I think it was 125 hp.

'cause it's mine.
