  2. Fail. That's not even an accurate stereotype. He's the hippy idealist communist.
  3. Also as a bump: since seeing that, I have done nothing to the quantities in my diet, but have made a conscious effort to remove proccessed foods and fructose. Happy to report a loss of a 3 lb, and a better tone to my anatomy. I think I'm making more muscle (though I'm working out a bit less) out of what I eat, with less going to the gut.
  4. Should read; Sales figure prove prius owners are idiots.
  5. Email this to the Gov: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%BCrburgring#Nordschleife_public_access Pose as a citizen who is FUCKING PISSED OFF THAT HE'S SITTING ON THIS GOLD MINE and not doing anything with it. What a fucking moron.
  6. They were too small to fit over the barrel without tearing.
  7. You wont traveling in a straight line.... but you'll be doing it FAST!
  8. It's Muholland, production companies rent it. Hell, there's probably a flat rate through the municipality. Ditto on the sloppy drift, not very tidy at all.... but then again, it's drifting, which is nonsensical to begin with.
  9. Reminds me on the intervention quote from a rockstar: "I get paid to look like this, what's your excuse?"
  10. This is true. HP is directly related to the volume of air being run through the engine, and that air needs matched with an appropriate afr. The size of the engine is nice, but 300hp worth of fuel is 300 hp worth of fuel.
  11. I'm seeing mixed specs saying it makes anywhere from 180lb ft to 300 lb ft. I don't know about you, but I can carry 100lb on my back with no problem, the potential to have 300hp from something half my weight seems to worth it, cosidering that people spend that kind of money rebuilding Vtechs and 12A's for torqueless "race" applications. Imagine replacing a 5.0 or SBC with that... or putting it on a go-kart or on the back of an Atom.....

  14. Documentary footage of that thing firing big ass missiles while cruising at 500mph: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVTbi8kWovI
  15. Alum Creek is unlimited horsepower, right?
  16. Cant operate in stormy weather either. It was just a military tech show-off peice, really. That's why it got funding. The idea of the ekranoplans was to cover open ocean distances rediculously fast (compared to boats), be nearly invisible to radar (at the time), and to deposit large payloads (compared to other aircraft. -It was low enough to be below terestrial radar. -It wasn't "in" the water, so sonar didn't pick it up. -Flew as fast as a plane. -Rode on a dense "cusion" of ground effect air, so less lifting surface was needed. The one in thos pics was fitted with missles because FUCK YEA, that's why! It was rendered useless by anything that wasn't perfect flying conditions.
  17. Group buy? Can anyone store this thing? http://englishrussia.com/index.php/2010/03/12/ekranoplan/ http://media.englishrussia.com/Ekranoplan_photos/70.jpg

  19. DOG PILE! Post your Toyota lols here. http://www.despair.com/toyota.html http://site.despair.com/images/dw/m/toyotaMODEL.jpg
  20. Just noticed that the big bits ont eh side are the fuel tanks, FUCK that's a lot of Hydrogen Peroxide! The crashes are going to be spectacular!
  21. Rockets? Check Spinning blades? Check Explosive liquid? Check Speeds in exces of 100mph? 4 different spectacular ways to die, all in one toy? Check! http://gammasquad.uproxx.com/2010/03/why-hello-there-personal-rocket-copter
  22. Look for that in a Dethklok song. Story reminds me of the horny toads eye-squirt: http://salamandercandy.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/horned-lizard-blood.jpg
