New shocks for the daily

 

This looks pretty bauce:

 

I think I saw a Formula Vee in there, which is mega bawse.

 

LOL, sounds slow and boring.

 

Bullshit.
I had a ton of fun racing Formula Vees. 50hp isnt so bad when the car weighs 900 lbs. Faster than a spec Miata on the technical tracks.


Last I heard, the guy I sold me Vee to was pretty competitive with it up north somewhere.

 

I bet it would be faster if he took off those doughnut tires and got some real racecar rubbers.

 

mmmm Pantera. My highschool shop teacher restores those things. They are harder to fit into than a lotus... and start on fire just as easy as lambos. Hello ford V8 headers tucked in a tiny space. You also pretty much guaranteed have to push start the damn things cause the starters fry from heat in the engine bay.

 

 

Since I didn't see this in the previous 5 pages...

 

I would say speak for yourself there, but I believe you're about my parents age IIRC. About five years ago I started a game to ask waitresses questions about famous people of history and see what kind of answers I get. No female between the ages of 16 and 28 I've encountered as a waitress can answer who John Wilkes Booth WAS, let alone what he did. Same goes for Lee Harvey Oswald. An acquaintance's 16 year old daughter can't tell you a single president on ANY US Currency and think's I'm dumb for expecting her to. My only comment was something along the lines of "would you want to check the dollar bills guys are throwing at you while you're taking your clothes off on stage?" If she keeps going the path she is, that'll be the only way she will ever make any money.


"Now I know what a TV Dinner feels like."

Is it just me, or did someone plug up the holes on the bottom??





Took this today on US-71. Went blowing by it and almost didn't give a second look until I glanced in my mirror. Nearly locked up the brakes after seeing the hood...



Couple geezers..

 

That little video just shows you how effing STUPID "pop" music really is..

 

That would actually make the car significantly slower because of the weight of the tires.

Also, friction is independent of surface area.

 

Ever driven a formula ford? Same wieght, 2x the powa. Which is slow compared to an atlantic, or F500. Open wheel cars ftw.

 

easy there gramps, I'm sure Vivaldi thinks your Mozart fetish is pretty lowbrow too.

 

 

We've all been thinking this at some point right?

 

There was a girl I went to HS with who thought WW2 was in the 70's...
The part where your friends daughter thinks your dumb for asking is the part that troubles me, that sort of attitude is why we're behind the rest of the world in education. No more participation trophies, no more of this "everyone is a unique snowflake who can do anything they want" attitude, it's bringing us down.
