hmm, half a day’s traffic in _half a day_...  shocking.

by bentley owner standards, definitely one of the poors (i.e. not a 1%er)

salty? nah, just baffled at how rich people will buy something expensive purely because it is expensive but not in any way more functional.

does it do any single thing better than a honda pilot beyond making an obscenely rich putin sympathizing fucknuts feel smug?

wasn’t the meteor just the mercury version of the torino?

bullshit headline. Biden didn’t “refuse to ride the bus”. The Secret Service said “Aw Heylllll naw!” when informed of the plan to put 40 world leaders in a fucking greyhound.

RB would certainly like him to be second in every race. lately he has been getting farther and farther back to the point that RB can’t leverage him against the other teams for pit stop strategy. he is doing enough to ensure the constructors championship, but not enough to help strategy in the individual races.

not…

it’s not that he’s second best to Verstappen that is the problem, it’s that he’s fairly consistently not in position to help with strategy they way Bottas was able to consistently be in second or third and pick up the win if Hamilton crashed or had some other problem.

Perez is also running an older version of the floor (supposedly for cost cap reasons)  yes, max is that good, but the car is also clearly #1 on race pace and #1.5 on quali pace.  Merc is clearly 3rd or 4th on quali pace and 2nd on race pace, Ferrari is first on quali pace and 3rd on race pace.

typo above, I meant Albon and DeVries, not Piastri

I don’t see Toto letting his driver (he is both his manager and team owner and holds his contract) go to AT. too much bad blood with RB to let that happen (even if it would be best for the driver and Merc long term if he did).  I think Albon and Piastri will make a good pair at Williams next season (unless Albon gets…

it was basically Ferrari and Merc throwing a hissy fit when they failed to sign him.

pretty sure AT will only give up Gasley if they get their preferred replacement (and that isn’t happening).

same one I was going to do when I was 16 and my mom killed it at the last moment.

except that is not the actual case. ticket prices are going to be double business class on a typical widebody. to shave 2 hours off of a 9-11 hour door to door trip.

the fuel use is _at minimum_ 4x per seat vs an A321XLR (the closest narrowbody equivalent, can carry 167 people, about half of whom are in real business…

yup, just flew Boston to St Croix. actual total airtime ~5.5 hrs. total trip time door to door ~11 hours when you factor in all the overheads (left for airport 3am for a 5:30 flight (~50 minute drive to airport, time to be through security 1 hr before flight)board, taxi, fly, taxi, deboard, layover in Miami, board,…

is the GT hood vent real? if not, can you delete it? if it is real, can you get it in body color instead of black?

the ecoboost hood just looks cleaner

mach 3? and range that can barely be done by the most efficient, longest range widebody in the air today, the A350-900 ULR? what exactly are you smoking, cause I want some.

fine, touch the car other than cooling fans and tire warmers and drop to the back of the cars on the lap you are on.

there is no proposed supersonic plane with transpac range and seattle to tokyo is 11 hrs subsonic + airport overhead.

9-11 including airport overhead (5-7 in the air, 2 hours on either end travelto , security, checking in 1 hr before takeoff, deplaning luggage, travel from)
