Considering the majority of police cruisers(at least in the northeast) go on to serve for years and years as taxis, probably a good few.

Doing that without tugs is amazing. Honestly that would be difficult with tugs.
God the Tomcat is a beautiful thing. Also two awesome F18 liveries in this set. What’s the story on the blue/white?
I want one of these so I can be even more smug when it comes to parking than the stupid smart cars in my NYC neighborhood
That exhaust soot tho... I know it’s a result of being from the same era but it looks like 70’s airport footage.
Ha, I jumped with them last year...
It’s sad that this bike turned out this way. You’d think the formula would be simple at that price point, and Ducati seemed to be able to do it with the Desmosedici ages ago. It’s hard to believe that they’re reusing switchgear at nearly McLaren prices.
Holy shit thats the funniest thing i’ve ever read.
After reading viper pilot and seeing how frequently the vipers need to refuel I was wondering this myself, it seems crazy for our Air Force not to procure this comparatively cheap and supremely useful upgrade.
Obviously the suspension articulation leaves something to be desired but what this video demonstrates is that the various differentials do what appears to be an excellent job of distributing power to the wheels with grip. Honestly this does it better than all but very dedicated offroaders I’ve seen that have on/off…
The Z06 driver is obviously an ass, but to me the real fault is with the instructor. He should have absolutely curbed that shit WAY early in that session.
Also, to me that trans is a negative, have you seen what clutches for that thing cost? It’s madness. You’re in for about a grand MINIMUM on parts, and good ones are closer to 3. Craziness.
How do you figure? Depending on use the P can either stand for Plastic or Polymer either way I don’t see what distinction you’re making
That's not a supra drivetrain, that's a NA-t conversion
Obviously this isn’t going to be as fast as the big established teams this year, but I think it’s going to make for interesting racing. Having such dissimilar cars, cars that will be faster in different sections of the track and under different conditions will make for more exciting racing. Time will tell how reliable…
A checkmate crashed the other day, crew ejected safely.
Headroom makes sense, as the G35 had a sunroof as standard on all but the very base model and the Z didn’t have one as an option. Did the G you were in have a sunroof? Mine did, and I was close to it at 6’2” 210, but I drove a friend’s slicktop and it had about 3 extra inches.
I had an sv650 and think it was possibly one of the best beginner bikes you could get, but they’re getting a bit long in the tooth now, and the gladius is ugly, so in the spirit of newer machines...
Former G35 owner here, out of curiosity, in what dimension (width, height etc) did the G have less interior space than the 350z. I’ve driven both and never noticed a big difference.
Cool car and I love a good sleeper, but that’s waaaay to steep.
