Sekiguchi himself said that he was looking to capitalize on the opportunity for a slipstream offered by the hobbled GT300 car in front of him

They did make a version with NiMH batteries as well, though most were equipped with Lead Acids. ~400 were saved from the crusher in 2003-2004, and a many of those still exist today (I used to own 2 of them myself). Quite a few have been converted to lithium packs. 

I saw my first Toyota MR2 Spyder at the Denver Auto Show - I’d read a review in R&T, but had yet to see one in real life.  Black with a tan top and interior - identical to the one I bought less than a month later.  Sitting in it for a couple of minutes was all I needed to decide.

Subjectively, transmissions in antique cars. Like 50’s or older. I’m sure they were fine back then, but now post Covid with everybody trying to drive at warp speed there just ain’t enough gear.

You have just embarrassed yourself publicly. 

The V10 Ford Excursion can just about manage eight miles per gallon if you’re driving around town, which is pretty damn bad.

I think most telling of actual actions was changing verbiage in the regulation that every single person outside of Massi knew to mean one thing to confirm it did in fact mean *all*. 

Really amazed at the “both-sides-ism” here.

Obligatory

You know what’s easier? Getting my ballot in the mail & then I mail it back at my earliest convenience. Or, if I’m feeling bold, I drop it off at a drop box built like a safe vault. Then I get an email when it’s been accepted!

I think the Bustrain/Trainbus/Catbus is a useful idea for rural/under-served areas with railways that have not degraded due to time. As the bus carries only 20 or so passengers, the vehicle should cause little wear to the tracks. Also, it can be serviced in a vehicle depot, rather than having to maintain train repair…

“you better believe it’s gonna”

If they are unwilling to do that they could potentially give him a car worth $10,000 and it would also be satisfactory. Perhaps a certain 2016 Mazda CX-5.

The grille seems to have survived relatively intact. 

That’s not a bad thing

Post Apocalyptic

Inglorious Basterds works because it doesn’t pull punches or pretend it’s something it’s not, and it’s extremely self-aware. This game is the polar opposite, without any of the self-awareness. It’s crass and dumb, and it gets a lot wrong, even besides its clumsy handling of racism (and weirdly absent antisemitism).…

Sounds like punitive damages would have been on the menu if they had continued down the course they were on before. A cost/benefit study probably concluded they would have been hit with massive punitive damages for knowingly misleading regulators.

1000% disagree.

Let people hate things.
