It is a rotating rack to store cruise missiles, loaded up with said missiles.

It is such a low bar but I respect Ham for this. He immediately called the police and immediately admitted he was at fault, and he wasn’t even over the legal limit.

“ekranoplan” might be my favorite word ever to say.

A Fixed-Gear Bicycle.

You have clearly never been to Maison Kaiser.

I wish F1 would do a one-off year of anything goes as long as X space is left around the safety cell. I’m talking ground effects, blown exhaust, movable aero, and any engine and tires you want. Just one year. The racing would probably be terrible but the individual laps would be incredible.

You write such well-researched and thought-out pieces but when I see the photos all I can do is drool.

We (my parents) bought one of these bad boys new 2006, on which I learned to drive stick. My dad is never, ever, ever selling it, and it utterly kills both of us that my girlfriend doesn’t think it would be a good city car for us in San Francisco.

I love these kinds of thoughtful posts about procurement but hate all the feels they give me when I look at the photos and know we could have had so much more.

this. sploosh.

those canopies also look like the non-gold ones. which is to say, “meh”

This is is the worst car I’ve ever driven. Everything is made out of plastic, the handling sucks, and it has zero performance until approximately seven seconds after you put your foot down.... at which point it revs at 8,000 but still doesn’t have any appreciable pickup.

The Porsche 918 of my dreams is any Porsche 918.

splooge.

The google hole i had to go into to figure out what FSAT meant was, well, long. And made me sad about the Vulcan more than anything.

Oh God. I barely was able to get through Transparent with Amazon Prime’s clunky video interface. I might have to get a Roku specifically to watch this, but avoid Prime.

So is this part of the drone control system or is this an RF-4?

The video references that the QF-16s are more economical. They’re probably cheaper to service both in terms of more existing parts and that they only have one engine, but I’m sure a huge part of it is that the F-16 is Fly-By-Wire, and the F-4 is not. Probably a lot easier to rig up.

....the tri-jet of the future? What is this, Dianetics?
