I dunno... Take the pain of letting go once for 20 to 30 million?

A 0-60 time of 0.5 seconds is really really difficult.

Not to put too fine a point to it, but one of those was actual space-worthy hardware, and the other one was a full-size structural mock-up.

The difference between Larry’s setup and my own is pretty similar to the difference between a Spec Miata and a Ferrari 499P Le Mans Hypercar. Both will get the job of driving around a track done, but one of them will produce a much more impressive result.

Uhm, the DS3, when it was still a sub-brand of Citroën, had quarterly sales numbers that regularly out-performed those for the Mini.

Well, there was Silk Cut too, which exclusively sponsored Jaguar and their endurance efforts: Iconic and only seen on Jaguar sports-prototype cars.

Nahh, in fairness, you can both see what may have been intended and still think it’s a turd.

Yes, there’s that, uhhhh, butcher’s chart too. But while memorable, it isn’t actually aesthetically pleasing. At least not to me. But it is certainly iconic!

Uhm, a certain oil company wishes to have a wo...

Uhm, there is a big difference between not having properly studied movement of glacial ice in the mid to late fifties of the last century (which did lead to much higher maintenance efforts than foreseen) before digging tunnels in the ice and climate scientists now.

But this is a hoax, right? Right? Because they keep saying that global warming isn’t a thing, so this can be a thing. Right? There is no ice melting and we don’t need EVs and battery renewables, right?

I can’t help you there, since I haven’t seen that documentary, but that one user review on IMDB seems spot on for 30 years ago.

EDIT: I might be off on some specifics. I'm not sure about the 300 gr. That might be quite a bit lesss, come to think of it.

It’s difficult to properly translate, since it comes with more context than just tolerating something.

Well, you’re close!

So, advantage to Verstappen? The Dutch have had a policy of tolerating pot/weed/hash for decades. He ought to be familiar with it. Not per se its effect, but its smells for sure.

Magnets themselves aren’t the problem though. It’s what they attract that is causing trouble.

Don’t forget Valentino Rossi! He almost traded in two wheels for four at Ferrari. He impressed so much that 7 time world champion Michael Schumacher was saddened he didn't make the switch!

Uhmmm, yes and no. RCC is black because of carbon. But RCC was only used for the tip of nose of the space shuttle and the leading edges of the wings.

No, it’s a simple matter of physics and aerodynamics that dictate the shape.
