The new Lamborghini Huracan Performante with active Aero has done a lap in 6:52.01
Top speed at the end of the long straight was 304kph. Or 188.897mph. Pretty incredible lap time for such a "slow" seeming top speed?
No Turbos. No Hybrid. Just an engine and their new active Aero flaps that open...
This guy posted some pics of his odometer.
He had 390,000.0.
He just posted another pic at 399,000.0 miles.
Do you think that it will roll over to 400K or return to zero?
Anyone have more on their car?

Looks like a pretty useful modification when it's used for what it was designed for. Cleaning balloons off of high voltage power lines.
But when do you think some asshole is going to get their hands on one?
I hope this doesn't give the firebugs that light our hills on fire every fall any new ideas.
I am looking at a Thor. 34 foot based on a Ford 450 chassis with the 6.7L Powerstroke.
How has that engine been? I won't be modifying it. Except for better mileage (maybe) It is already so much better than the Ford V-10 in terms of power, torque, and mileage.
The price for a clean, one to two...
Another TV star has passed away.
Star of The Mary Tyler Moore show in the 70's as well as many other TV shows. She started her career as a dancer.
She got her Academy Award nomination for her work in "Ordinary People", by Robert Redford.
Mine has started out weird. As usual.
I got a call last night from a friend. She and her son lost their ride to LAX to get on a plane to Texas. So I said "sure, I'll drive you"
Their flight time was 5:15am so I planned on leaving at 3am. So we FINALLY got out the door at 3:50. Made it to the...

It will only go 57 mph. Looks pretty good in the pictures. Should make a great escape the apocalypse vehicle if Hillary wins. Bet it will tow more than any F-150 ever. But is it street legal...
Do you think that this will trickle down to catch cans, tuners, blowers, exhaust systems and so on? This is just a follow on to the post by one of our sponsors last week...
The McClaren was destroyed and the driver taken to the hospital. Another "gray exotic" was also destroyed. And police say one or two other cars fled the scene and may have been racing...

Regarding chains and tire choices. What would give you the best chance of keeping control if you do not have any experience?
Snow tires.
Snow tires with studs.
Mud and snow tires with chains one the...
Really clean looking build. And it's not even fully shaken down yet. Would that tire fit under our street cars? :rolling:

What is the absolute smallest tank you would suggest?
I am leaning toward getting a tank that is large enough to only require two or three fills a year. That way I can buy when the prices have dropped and still have enough to last through the high price seasons.
The area that i am...

HE SAID, "YES."
I CALLED BILL GATES AND SAID, "I WANT YOUR DAUGHTER TO MARRY MY SON,"

Looks like a beautiful place to run in.
And I always thought that the Veyron would be even faster. Maybe they can go over 250, but they just need a really long run up to be able to do it.
Here's the Veyron. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpDpOWoXidw

One hung jury, two not guilty, and then the prosecutor saw the handwriting on the wall and dropped the remaining cases against the other officers, as well as not going forward with a meaningless retrial of the first case to be tried.
Now. How long will it take to get the stupid, racist bitch...

When I heard that Al Sharpton was guest preacher at a black
Columbus church, I decided to check him out in person and see what
it was all about.
I sat down and Sharpton came up to me, I don't know why, maybe it
was because I was the only white person in the church.

I just read an article about them on Keller-Hearts website.
The main thing that was determined in testing is that the addition of the nanoparticles improved the heat conductivity of the oil by 17%. That's a 17% smaller chance of heat damage to bearings and a reduction of heat in our pistons...
