Awesome write Torch. I love this car.

I'd nominated Magnum. I'm not ripped that he didn't get picked, but I am ripped that Michael Knight got picked over Magnum. We rail against in-car distraction here at Jalopnik. KITT was all about in-car distraction while Magnum drove a Ferrari with a stick. He's the guy you want running the show.

In 1987 (the year after this video) Senna did it in 1:27.68. That's still 14 seconds slower than a modern day F1 car. The really cool stat would be "How fast could young Senna, lap Monaco, in a 2013 F1 car?"

Magnum P.I.

I like the BCA airbags as well. Unfortunately it's just not feasible to wear a pack during training and competition. There are a couple of us looking at a way to create something that would function like a built-in HANS device that would prevent forward snapping, and also have a bumper type system under the back lip…

I agree with everything you just said. I also ski patrol and it would be so easy to to backwards neck-support for skiers/boarders. Oddly I've already seen two skiers avoid neck trauma because they were wearing hoodies under their ski jackets. In both cases, the hood on the hoodies had bunched up under the rear lip of…

The follow up event will be great though:

I know it wasn't judgement. No worries.

Game. Set. Match. If this gets passed the pc sensors, then VW is totally in the clear.

Jesus. Could we please forget about Snow. We gave the world The Guess Who, the Tragically Hip, The Barenaked Ladies, Sloan, Cowboy Junkies, D.O.A, Crash Test Dummies, Gob, I Mother Earth, Blue Rodeo, Our Lady Peace, Great Big C, BTO, 5440, Alexis on Fire, Arcade Fire, Bruce Cockburn, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings...…

I had access to my dad's 271bhp, restored '65 Mustang when I was 17 (in 1987 - man I'm old). I was lucky, I know. I also know that through the lens of hindsight, I was damn lucky not to have killed myself in it.

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan cops must be right near the top of the list. This is the group of racist assholes that have repeatedly driven drunks (usually First Nations people, never white kids) out of town, in the middle of winter, booted them out of the car and made them walk back to town. One Cree teenager froze to…

Louisiana perhaps? I have nothing first-hand to back this up. But a friend of my dad's used to do business in the southern states. He did lots of driving from Texas to Florida and through the surrounding area. If he had to go to Louisiana, he'd fly in and take cabs. If he was on the road, he'd go around the whole…

Sonic, Honda Fit, Yaris?... That's all I've got.

Not sure if this is a regional thing or not but my mom used to have #9, the Sprite. In Canada we called them "Bugeye" Sprites, not "Frogeye" Sprites. It wasn't just my family either, everybody I know who knew the car called it a Bugeye.

I've driven that road hundreds of times. The corner is off-camber. If the road was wet and he was going to fast, I could see it happening. And, judging by the destruction of the Audi, he was flying.
