When I went to SEMA last year, I saw what GM and Ford had to offer on the EV side of things.

I was pretty stoked to see what GM might do with their “off the shelf” conversion stuff.  The E10 pickup was neat, and I’d been told they were working on a better modular setup to replace existing fuel tanks and stuff.  Which

8.27 @ 168 is full on hauling the fucking mail.

This also shows that the acceleration up top isn’t tapering off quite like it used to. Older EV’s would run out of chooch around the 1000ft mark and other cars would mph past them if they were close enough. Estimated ET with the CobraJet’s MPH is 8.11 seconds in the 1/4.

Welcome to the late 90s, early 2000s? You could get smoked or even cleared reflectors back then.

And from past experience, reflectors aren’t gonna do jack shit about preventing somebody from hitting some shit, the car could be fluorescent yellow or have flashing red and blue lights. Some people are going to hit it no

Gotta get that multi-function tailgate done first.

Huh, I think 3D versions of that track can be found on Adam & Eve’s website.

It’s like it got syphilis, lost its nose which had the tiny kidney grills to reveal this gaping maw in the fascia.

Or maybe this guy behind the vinyl wrap and his nose is poking through...

Chry, Chry alot.

And you can replace the whole front end with like 8 bolts and 20 minutes of work, 30 minutes if you take a smoke break and crack open a cold one for the “got the parts off” break just before putting the new parts on.

chest-level work surface”

Can we stop for one damned minute and talk about how fucking bonkers this is? The goddamned tailgate opens and it’s at chest height on a stock truck?

What.
The.
Fuck.

I remember playing in my grandparent’s old C10 as a kid, the tailgate was at best at thigh height on an adult. Why? Because I

I know there’s already some “yeah, but” comments in the thread already. I remember how everybody and their fucking dog said Hamilton was fucking up with leaving McLaren so early in his career and had been successful to jump off to Mercedes who had not even proven themselves yet.

He made a sound decision, and here we

That’s pretty fuckin cool. Looks like a lot more car than I’ll ever need, and 8 hours is about max that I’d want to road trip with my girls anyway. One can handle only so many hours of disney sing alongs.

Hi.

So, they took some pages out of the Gran Turismo book with some “Special Stage” layouts?

The Buick V6 back then was nucking futs.

Taking a drag to a different level.

From what I’ve been told, usually it’s a no.  But if it’s a high enough demand vehicle, good luck bartering for a lower price (look at the $70k sticker C8's going for $100K+ from some dealers).

Where dealerships really make their money is on the financing side.  You can usually work up a better deal if financing

It’s gonna have to start from within.


DNC should have pushed somebody out there other than some tired old white dude.

I have way too many friends that were like, “RIP DNC” when they started pushing Biden on everybody. He’s going to pick a female POC just to hopefully draw whatever sympathy votes they can possibly snag on the “yay, I’m being progressive and

Where I work, we mainly sling GM performance parts, but we sling Mopar and Ford performance parts as well. So I get to see what moves, what attracts customers, and other things in the market that just work. We’ve even approached higher ups asking why TF they aren’t selling things to a certain segment and their reply
