@Ben Wojdyla: Good point. I'm a mechanical engineering major so I should probably know that, but I like pointing out things that appear to be silly little mistakes. They make me feel smart.

So correct me if I'm wrong here, but if the masses of the two vehicles are the same (m1 = m2), then the force is zero? You sure that's not supposed to be m1 + m2?

This would make a phenomenal birthday present for my grandpa, who is quite possibly the worst driver in the world. Of course knowing him it would just end up parked in his driveway, filled with junk, and not driven for 15 years.

I grew up facing backwards in the back of our mid-80's Caprice Classic station wagon on 7 hour trips to Minnesota with my parents and four siblings. I only wish we still had that beast when I turned 16, it would have been quite an experience to drive a vehicle with a 305 making only 160 hp.

Pretty sure these places are more common than you think. There's a small town of rich assholes who seceded from our town a while back, and there's no trespassing signs all over the place. They're tucked away in a corner so there's no benefit to cutting through there anyways, but the streets are so nice and curvy, and

@slackinfux: I'm sorry sir, but you fail at the maths.

Funny, I used to live in a gangsta's paradise on the north side of Chicago (Rogers Park). Now I'm just in a yuppie paradise north of Chicago (Evanston). I need to get out of this place.

Could someone please put these kinds of races on NBC or FOX instead of that one car fits all NASCAR garbage we have now? Damn I need to get the SPEED network soon.

@lilwillie: Wow, $25 for every Prius sold is ... (doing lots of complicated math) ... $25 million. Ouch.

@Uncle Trash: GM uses UGS NX. I know because they sponsor our CAD program at Northwestern and that's what they teach us here. Which would be great if anyone besides GM used it, or if GM would give me a job, but no dice on either of those.

I was a young lad of 10 at the time, I can remember sitting in my room and watching the last two innings. I still subconsciously hate Craig Biggio for getting that groundout in the 9th. I'm pretty sure that season is going to be the highlight of my life as a Cubs fan, young and oblivious to the harsh truths of failure.

It's $3.85 in my small town about an hour out of Chicago, which is one of the highest prices in Illinois besides the city. Have no idea why, we used to be cheap compared to the rest of the nation.

That was probably the least funny thing I've seen all day, and I was looking at an oscilloscope earlier today. That's just sad when your video loses in making me laugh to a green sine wave.

@amblito: When that engine is in a '95 Neon, I would much rather listen to music. Especially since I can hardly hear the engine in the first place, unless I'm really laying into it and then it just sounds painful.

My uncle has a '63 TR3 that he got from his car collecting father-in-law. He let me drive it once, most fun I've ever had in a car even though it was without a working speedometer so I was worried about how fast I was going the whole time.

Apparently the buyer is really into SUVs, his last two eBay purchases were a Hummer H1 and a 1941 Willys Jeep. I'm jealous.

I know this isn't what you're looking for, but it's the first ad I found and I almost died. Note that it says the rims do not come with the truck, but it says nothing about the little girl...

My one experience at Joe's involved me holding on to one of the aforementioned poles to keep myself upright while rubbing against a coed who seemed attractive at the time. Great memories. I'm the drunk guy that people look at and think "what a douche".

Finally something to make me forget about the loss of the real SRT4. Yeah the Caliber version is powerful and all, but there's nothing about it that makes me think track demon. This car though, this I am excited about.
