Is there a law that requires all Chrysler 300's to have 22" aftermarket wheels? Read more

"Yeah, good on you to give credit to "Maximum" Bob, but completely ignore the rest of what he says — which is that the "change" is coming from spurring the rest of the industry to act, not to make the damn cars yourself, you fool." Read more

I like seeing funding behind audacious plans. High achievement always takes place in the framework of high expectations. Draw up a spec sheet for the internet, write "requirements" at the top, put yourself in 1960 and tell me that's not a little loony. Read more

How are all those dentists and lawyers going to find time to get their bikes back to the dealer? It takes 40 minutes alone just to put on the Harley Davidson boots and the Harley Davidson bandanna and the Harley Davidson gloves and the Harley Davidson pants and the Harley Davidson chaps and the Harley Davidson helmet… Read more

Did FSAE for four years. Had a blast, got very little sleep, and my grades were terrible. Read more

I also had about 5 people at the track tell me something like "Did you see that top gear? You're gonna run out of charge on track and we're gonna have to tow… Read more

Maybe I'm just super old, but I always think its funny when news reports list someone who is 18 as "a man" instead of "a kid", especially considering that said "man" is dooking in other people's cars for fun. Read more

I'm GenX and I'm doing better than my parents, and so are millions of other hard working, non complaining Gen X people busting ass to move technology forward and make the world a better place, in the midst of whatever situation we've been given and however many dead pseudo-spokespersons we've lost.

I've seen one Google streetview car. the dude in front of me was taking a picture of it. I took a picture of a dude taking a picture of a car that takes pictures. Read more

I think it depends on the crowd and area. All the sportbike riders I see in LA are wearing full leathers, but when I go back home to Oklahoma, everyone is wearing t-shirts, especially the look-at-me Harley crowd. Read more
