  1. Sly, consider this: 1. Put your maxima in neutral 2. Strap a solid fuel rocket to the top 3. place on magic treadmill 4. light rocket 5. stay off the brakes. What happens next? You want to try and tell me that you're not going anywhere?

    actually, I think it *is* a good idea. A premium 4 person ragtop from Buick that would fill the slot the Cutlass Convertible left and absolutely smash the Sebring and Solara convertibles It can be front drive.... just make sure there is a HF 3.6 in it.
  3. ok... so I was right... either way it's worded. If the belt is moving in the opposite direction of the plane at a speed equal to, but opposite direction of the plane, the plane will still take off. Any speedometer attached to the wheels will report a speed double the actual speed.
  4. yeah, that'd make a great base engine for the 900s

    It was only a "mid-engine" because they turned the transaxle 180 degrees and put the wheels in front of the motor rather then just under and behind. It was still a transverse mounted, FWD setup.
  6. What will happen to the I6? It would be a shame to lose such a great engine after just one generation.
  7. but... but... Pushrods r teh suck!
  8. yes. forward motion is provided by the thrust of the engines, not the spining of the wheels. All the belt will do is stop the spinning of the wheels completely and match the forward speed of the aircraft.

    I only want a Bengal if it can comfortably seat four, has a decent trunk, and has at least a 3.6 driving the rear wheels..... The Bengal was FWD BTW.

    Please don't feed the trolls
  15. right... it's a wannabe 1968 utopia site...
  16. I like how conservatives like to tell kids that condoms don't work, the morning after pill is the same as having an abortion, and that there shouldn't be an HPV vaccine so there is an incentive to not have sex. My favorite local conservative is the guy that drives around downtown at lunch in an old Uhaul truck with a picture of an aborted fetus on the side. The conservatives that murder abortion doctors are rather fun. but most of all, the conservatives that consider me sub-human, dirty, and immoral because I would like to have my long term commitment to my partner legally recognised in case something were to happen to one of us..... those conservatives are my favorite. I like to generalize about conservatives too...

    Are magnesium paddle shifters a major criteria for choosing a car? Me, I'll take the 6-speed manual myself.....
  18. As far as language, I don't have an issue with it. No one can see text on the screen unless they're specifically focusing on it. They're certainly not going to pick up on random curse words in our posts... unless of course they're set to largest, bold, and red. pictures and sigs on the otherhand.... I forget who it it, but any posts with 15 anime chicks with bouncing chevy boobies, I have to scroll off the screen when I'm at work. I'd be content with a NWS in the titles of threads with pictures....
  19. Even the later 4cylinder models aren't bad. 34mpg highway isn't unheard of. Alero Mazda Protege
  20. I'm partial to the '58 myself
  21. well, the EPA specifies the procedure.

    I guess this is the new car to rip styling off of instead of the Passat.....
