  1. http://www.caranddriver.com/carnews/11851/spied-2009-nissan-skyline-gt-r.html "Nissan considered a V-8 for the next GT-R but has opted instead for a twin-turbo V-6, due to its lower weight and explosive power potential. A limited-edition 2005-model GT-R Z-tune, fitted with the now-superseded twin-turbo straight-six, generated over 500 horsepower, showing the potential of this car. Britain’s Cosworth is helping Nissan extract more than 450 horsepower from the upcoming 3.7- or 3.8-liter V-6 while still meeting emissions laws." Looks like turbo V6, it is. No word on pricing in this article, but they have about a year to get it figured out. Hopefully, it won't be as high as originally reported. Then again, I couldn't afford it even if they dropped the price by half.
  2. Nah, I know you wouldn't take your prejudice that far
  3. The worst NASCAR crash I've seen, or at least compared to this crash, was a year or two ago. It was a truck race at a 2 mile oval, I forget which one cause they all look the same. A truck was spun and launched into the fence on the front stretch and the truck basically disintegrated and all that was left was the cage around the driver. He lived but definitely didn't walk away.
  4. Have any of you seen the new season of Fifth Gear? I hope that Top Gear doesn't end up like that, it's horrible. I also think that the show won't go away for good, but some steps will probably be taken to keep them from having as much fun as we like to see.
  5. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZV-_dcaFos I'm kinda suprised this hasn't been posted yet, considering the size of the crash and the fact she had almost no injuries. I saw it live and had figured she was dead, or at least broke a bunch of bones. P.S. Don't mind Derek Daly, he's a horrible commentator.
  6. Yeah, I also figured he probably broke some stuff, like perhaps his neck and was paralyzed. But, we can't know for sure so oh well.
  7. Wow, someone just got seriously hurt and you guys are acting all...serious! Aren't we supposed to laugh at others misfortune? hehe
  8. I sorta feel bad for the kid, but I can't stop laughing. NWS for ads on site. http://www.yourdailymedia.com/media/1158828139/Fat_Kid_Falls_Head_First_Off_A_Van
  9. DeVry required us to use TI-89's. I haven't touched the thing since graduation, if you're interested in something a little higher up the product chain.
  10. I remember that episode, I actually tried beating his time with the NSX around Laguna Seca. I could only tie it, I guess I suck +1 on the second part.
  11. Let them keep doing it, maybe it'll kill off some of those idiots and prevent them from creating a new generation of dumbass.
  12. I guess some things escape your attention while weaving through traffic at that pace
  13. Hans Stuck is a crazy old man. I think he's still doing the 24 hour event at the Nordschleife, usually teaming with Boris Said. Watching that video again makes me realize I've nearly got that circuit memorized from driving it so many times in GT4. I just wish I could find a decent map of it for GTR, the one I've found is really shitty and doesn't seem acurate.
  14. Brainiac. Poor Hamster, but that's a badass way to get put in critical condition.
  15. Aren't Subaru dropping that style nose? That Toyota concept looks like a Z06 mixed with a 599 GTB.

    I'll PM you about it.

    What do you do?

    I went to school with a guy who did something similar, only in the Physics lab. He said he just sat on his ass all day long, which is perfect for him. But, he did get to play with some cool equipment.

    What do you do?

    Ah, I thought you were gonna say something bad lol. I haven't actually done anything yet, just had orientation today. Tomorrow I start training in the plant.
  19. I hope you guys pick some Blue Jackets players, their rookie squad looked impressive last night. I'd join but I never stick to fantasy leagues, I never have liked them much.

    What do you do?

    How so? I'll be working at the Delaware plant, second shift.

    What do you do?

    I just started today as a Test Engineer for Liebert.
  22. People make mistakes I grew to hate it in time.
  23. Yeah, he's still around. I enjoy his show now and then, but it's usually just a repeat of everything I've already seen during the weekend.
  24. I haven't been to the IPS spot but am wondering something. Are you guys posting signs that say what you're saying on here? The people leaving the trash and being assholes probably aren't on this board. I'm sure all the members who show up are cool, but the strangers showing up don't know that CR members have allowed them the freedom to hang out there. Therefore, they don't know about all of these posts about the problems. So I guess I'm just making a suggestion and perhaps you've already tried this, but just put up some signs for everyone to see and maybe it won't be so bad.
  25. Repost x3 If you really wanna see some Speed Channel bitching then check out their forums. It's basically the point of every thread.
