Energy Department money comes out of the budget and is therefore subjected to Congressional oversight. The TARP money was a special "emergency" fund that was completely administered by the executive branch and was not subject to any Congressional oversight.

Now playing
Foot to the floor seems to work pretty good here.
I also had this one back in the day that I thought was pretty cool too.
Ford RS200. Pic is not mine, but I've got this and its in good shape too.
That makes sense. So most likely the trucks were actually fairly close, but since there wasn't any immediate danger to anybody no sense sending the trucks in to a risky situation.
I realize this was an unmanned test and I'm assuming it was performed in a remote, safe location, but why did it take so long for the fire trucks to get there? Seems like for a rocket test fire you would have fire equipment standing by.
I have nothing but the utmost respect for guys like Mr. Stoschek and James Glickenhaus who not only have these priceless one-offs commissioned and built, but then take them out and race them. Seriously awesome to see this in action.
SCA mission silhouettes
Pretty sure the extra vertical stabilizers were permanent as the SCA was basically only used for transporting the shuttle. It appears that it did ferry the Phantom Ray a couple times.
Is there something wrong with me? I ask because what jumped out at me in the picture is the fact that the car appears to be a 2.5RS with a 6 swapped in there.
Sorry, man the Triton V10 was part of the Ford Modular Engine program. It was a 90* V10 that shared the bore and stroke with the 5.4L V8. It used a split pin crank and balance shaft to help with some of the issues of not being a 72* vee angle.
A Lambo looking car with an American V8 rumble you say? I'll just leave this here for you.
I'll see your Japanese vending machine and raise you a Chinese one. According to Wikipedia this is in Shenyang China.
Congrats on the racing license Lindsey. Now go drive fast!
I've got to go with the old Marlboro livery. Because I'm sure Gulf has been spoken for already. Though I assume this has been too as I didn't bother reading through the old posts.
Tough to say. The 'Ring is actually a very tight track and most of it has too many corners coming too fast for the Veyron to make use of its top speed. Throw in the fact that it is also known to be a pretty rough track and even on the long straights the Veyron might not be able to make full use of its top speed…
The Veyron SS held the fastest lap for two episodes. [jalopnik.com] At a quick glance the Gumpert Apollo Sport held the best time for the longest until it was upstaged by the Veyron SS. Two episodes later the Ariel Atom V8 bested the Veyron SS.
Been there, done that. Scary trying to miss the rim when you're laying on your side under a car and swinging a sledgehammer. Also even though it was on jack stands it was still an uncomfortable feeling. Now I'll wipe a little bit of antisieze on the back of the rim first.
That is absolutely false. The officer does not need to read you your Miranda rights when they place you under arrest. They only need to read you the Miranda rights when you are being formally interrogated.
