Whatever do you mean? :sunglasses:

Auto🥳

It's interesting to watch drivers losing it on track, you can tell the one's being saved by stability control, the car is reacting differently as the brakes are being applied selectively to straighten the car up. Whereas a good driver is controling the slide with steering which looks much smoother.

Catholic?

Sadly, very true. Guess how I found out? It cost me a pro buff and polish.

But it has the same problem as battery vehicles, low energy density. High pressure cylinders are still bulkier than fuel tanks and can't be shaped to fit in unused space as a fuel tank can. And, once the climate cult has been discredited, we'll realise refining existing technology is the smart...

I may have a bit more experience in inserting things in tight places than you. After all, I am a qualified mechanic, so I should have. But I don't find it a problem, pulling out is easy. Putting it back in really needs two hands. One to hold the stick at the top to apply force, the other hand...

I've done half or more of the break in on the highway with all my recent cars. Mainly because we bought them from distant dealers. But, if you vary your speed, give it a rev from time to time and let it overun to draw oil into the bores a bit more, it'll be fine.

Too damn true. The buggers have no ear for music, they have to feel it.

Remote rev? I didn't know about that. Let the fun begin .

I find it hard to measure volume by ear, maybe mine are stuffed. But I can tell the different tone between modes. And a witness I trust tells me it's quite loud. From in a building.

Yeah, I posetd my rant too soon. He might change the world, then we can say we knew him when he was just a content creator.

If the question was phrased in another way it might have made sense. But "intelligent and forward looking"? We're just here to talk/write shit about cars, and lie about how great ours are. It is probable that car forums will die, because guys who don't know whether they're Arthur or Martha and...

How old are you again? War, large or small, is primal, a part of the human psyche. My Grandfather survived the slaughter in Sud Tirol, Italy in WW1. You know, the "war to end all wars". My Father missed WW2, because his Father didn't want him to face the same and immigrated. I've seen (or heard...

My last car would do 0 - 62mph in 4.7 secs and top out at 250kmh, but barely spun the tyres at all. AWD 😁

Look at options on any Euro Exotic. You could buy whole cars for some of the prices

Not Rosso? Still niiice. I wanted my Dad to buy a Fiat 125 (Poor man's Alfa) in the 60's, but he bought a Holden. Tragic.

But, you're happy, right? I'm envious. I should have bought one I saw here 2 years ago. Immaculate, $NZ30,000. I was so rapt up in the thing I didn't even notice the Ferrari Roma next to it.

I had a mental picture of a Darwin Awards vid.

Smooth is the word, sits at 630 rpm all day long. Well, 30 mins anyway.
