Okay, but for the love of God, can they make it sound better?

Say what you will about the SLR, it has the best execution of side exit exhaust of any production car ever, including the Shelby Cobra and the C2 Corvette.

Why the hell did they make the rear wheels 22"?!?

While I agree that the SP38 was the prettiest one-off in a long time, I disagree that it was the only pretty one.

Are those splitter turnbuckles? I really don't like that look.

My next daily?

While I loved 7, flawed as it was, Frontier was really on another level.

My formative years.

I mean, there’s not much in the way of diversity. P42s are the backbone of the fleet, outnumbering everything else by an order of magnitude.

The Capitol Limited should be a at least 2 GE P42s pulling a whole slew of Superliner cars, all of which rely on HEP. Superliners have been around since the mid 80s. You may have been hearing a straining AC condenser.

If you haven’t been on trains in the Northeast, then you’d be on trains pulled by diesel-electric locomotives. A diesel engine (prime mover) turns a generator, which provides current to power the electric traction motors which turn the wheels. In some cases, some of this current can be used for head end power(power to…

It’s a high speed electric train power by overhead caternary wires. It, like all other electric trains around the world, carries no onboard fuel, and head end power is supplied directly from the cat.

Autos. GM outsources its manuals from TREMEC and Aisin.

So, having seen Gulf, Martini, John Player Special, Falken, Castrol, Alitalia, Penske Sunoco, and Marlboro already mentioned, which are also my favorites, I present to you my favorite racing liveries.

Han Swolo, what a man Swolo.

My first car love was the Z32, which I still carry today, even though I don’t really fit in one.

We brine in NY, but there is too much traffic volume to plow to black. Our highways are all compacted snow if we get more than 6 inches in one shot. I couldn’t get a Limited with a manual, I wanted leather, and honestly, the Sport manual that I test drove felt like stirring a box of rocks. I locked the CVT in…

I’ve driven RWD V8 manual cars with snow tires and AWD automatic/cvt cars long distances with substantial grades in heavy snow.

As a Jalop, I most appreciate that all the race cars in these movies have a third pedal.
