I feel your pain on the “fanboi” front. Driving a MKIV Supra is very similar. Stop by Starbucks with the wife and grab a coffee so you can sit in the car and talk? Nope. “Knock, knock” on the window 2 minutes later. “Hey is it a turbo? Want to sell it?” It’s like driving a circus.

One of the inherent strengths of the Supra, and one of the huge reasons for its success is the inline 6. The ability to modify the motor to three times its original rated horsepower without having to replace the internals is the main factor in the Supra’s tremendous success.

V configuration motors are inherently more…

Is it me, or does it seem to be the sole goal of the governing body to make sure that anything resembling entertainment is complete sucked out of F1? It seems everything they do is designed to make racing boring. And that’s no short order. But they’re being amazingly effective at it.

Is it some sort of social…

I suspect you’d be towing it in. That car brings a new definition to drive by wire.

I suspect it has a lot more to do with how you ride, and what gear you wear more than anything else.

When it’s cold enough I’m in leather. When it’s hot I’m in usually in mesh with CE armor. I’m always wearing helmet, boots and gloves. I occasionally will ride without a jacket. It’s a risk, but it’s my risk to take.

I…

Doesn’t count, he didn’t mow down a crowd of spectators.

I honestly though you were kidding Doug...

In my experience, it seems cops spend the vast majority of their time sitting still with the A/C running. How long can a model S sit still with the A/C on before it flatlines the battery?

My new excuse; “Justin told me to!” :D

No more wasted trips to Tosche Station! Brilliant!

Just bought this about a week ago. ABS, EFI, etc... It’s a modern bike in all respects. It just looks like a classic.

I use BlackStone. After setting a baseline with a virgin oil analysis, we ran tests over several oil changes and determined that 8,000 miles is the sweet spot for my Supra’s 2JZ using Redline 5w-30.

If I do track time I just change it, but for the street 8K seems to work perfectly, I could probably go 10K without a…

Brilliant!

Mary, repeat after me:

“Would you like fries with that?”

Just say it over and over, you’re going to be saying it a lot in the future... Practice makes perfect.

Mmmm.... Clothing soaked in carcinogens... Brilliant!

You can add any Single Turbo Supra to that list as well. We’ve lost more to “mechanic test rides” than I care to think about.

I think the Bugatti symbol on the rear is a dead giveaway...

One year ago this Thanksgiving, my wife and I were headed to my sister-in-law’s house for dinner. We were behind a woman who was driving in a manner quite similar to that video. We called the police. We followed the driver (at a safe distance) until the police pulled up and pulled the person over.

The dispatcher…

The Naza-M flite computer with GPS hover can hold my hexacopter within about an 18” cube, even in high wind. My hexacopter has a “Return to home feature” that causes the drone to return to its launch point if radio communications are lost. I have turned off my transmitter several times. It usually lands within 6” of…

This wasn’t the wheel lock. I’ve seen this before - this was lack of power on a car with power steering. It’s one thing to bypass the pump - it’s quite another to fight all of that while it’s still in place.

Primary fault here is inexperienced people towing WAY too fast.
