Quote from Dennis93 :Why doesn't Barrichello just realize that he's getting to old for this stuff.

He should start doing some Nascar or something, it'll fit him better i think.

blasphemy!

Go Pro cameras were everywhere at the rally I was at this weekend too... we watched some of the stage video with the co-driver and crew that were staying in the same place as us. The quality was pretty awesome. I'm a fan.

The organizers had some of them set up on the edges of the snow drifts to catch the cars whizzing by... people had them in the crowds, some on poles that they could stick out to get closer.

They really seem to have a hold on the action camera market now. They are everywhere, and not even just in racing.

Quote from Cornys :Downforce. The teams would just plaster tape over the whole grill if they did have a functional grill

It also adds drag.

No, the Cruzes are the old regulations, besides, I don't think that's legal in either set of regs.

Oh my gawd that livery is... quite the sight. It's like they let a 8 year old design it in paint, only using the default colors.

I don't quite know how he manages all of that so well... unlike Zanardi, he can't use a prosthetic leg to brake IIRC. Zanardi was unable to race until they worked the system out with the prosthetic, because of the downshift issue. I'm not sure how Watt is managing it.

Right handle appears to be upshifting, left handle seems to be brake. Throttle is left hand, presumably. Is there a secondary system for his left hand that allows him to downshift?

Quote from JJ72 :what....I think the production car looks good.

I have an irrational hatred of large sedans. They just feel bloated, no matter what designers do. I seriously can't think of a single one that I like

You won't even notice it in a year. Recent cars seem to have been moving towards larger grille areas, your eyes and design sense will likely adjust in time.

See: new Dodge Dart, new Focus, Chevy sonic, Buick Regal

So I'm pretty much the only one here who loves the looks of that, I take it? Hate the original production car, but I like that.

It will look better once it's stickered up. They always do. Pretty much every car looks like shit in plain white.

Those lights are terribly ugly. I suppose they will be rather functional though, and that's really all that matters

Possibly a race at MIS
SCCA club racing events - likely will be at Mid Ohio sometime, Grattan, possibly Nelson Ledges, Road America for June Sprints, maybe Runoffs if I can swing that.

Quote from Yuri Laszlo :Andorra, with a much more stable government and a quarter of the population speaking portuguese also doesn't have one.

pssshhhh no fun. it's far more amusing to imagine those cars being riddled with bullet holes as they cruise the streets of Mogadishu.

Quote from Yuri Laszlo :So, apparently, the site owners had 23 cars, including 15 Mercs, a Lambo, a Maserati and a RR Phantom. **** this, I'm starting my own file sharing site and couldn't care less if I get caught after 10 years. Does anyone know of a country without a extradition agreement with the US?

Somalia. No real government = no official extradition agreement. Have fun with your Rolls!

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Yeah reading that seems that SOPA is put on hold and the whitehouse has already issued statements saying they won't veto anything that would stop the functionality and dynmic-ness of the web.

Also in that link it stated the portion regarding DNS blocking would be removed. Still baby steps I am fairly confident it won't be passed.

If Congress were to get a 2/3 majority, it wouldn't matter what Obama thought. I don't think that will happen since 6 co-sponsors pulled out yesterday, but it technically could still be passed over his objection.

The next discussion if SOPA is dead becomes the OPEN act that has been put forth as an alternative. I haven't read that one yet to have a real opinion of it.

They've all been arrested now. 17 year old is being charged as an adult, others are younger and being charged as juveniles. Also, it didn't appear to be gang-related, it was just that they wanted to beat the crap out of someone.

why do you assume I've never heard of DMCA?

I was just saying that I have seen people elsewhere on the internet using this as an excuse to advocate for completely scrapping copyright law altogether, and I don't think that's the point people should be getting from all of this.

Quote from bmwe30m3 :u might think your girl may look good, but she's no Susan Boyle.

Are you saying that you find Susan Boyle incredibly attractive?
