The car thread ...

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Summarizing a number of looters, they perpetrate the vandalism quickly, then cowardly scatter. One looter is too many, they feel entitled much like liberals. When will the peaceful protesters denounce the rioters/looters carrying out the destruction of their communities?

Turning liberals comments against them, angers them. Vulgarity is your repertoire in response.
:lol: :lol: You really are a piece of unfinished work......my comment about the looters in the stolen "luxury rides" was a response to YOUR post. How is that "turning liberals comments against them?" You posted from a story in the NY Post ( :lol: ) about looters. I commented on it, and I tend to use explicit terminology whenever I have to deal with moronic situations like you continually bring up. But you just keep on thinking that you've "turned liberals comments against them" if it makes you feel more relevant or logical. At least that will be something you are not a victim of. How many times today do you expect you'll be a victim? What will be the nature and severity of those things that make you a victim? Do you feel a sense of well being when you're a victim? Every time? How intense is the angst you have when you're not being somehow victimized? What happened in your life that made you a perpetual and constant victim? I suspect you were dropped on your head as a baby and things just went downhill from there. OBAMAGATE! get some

Once again you display your complete abject ignorance; none of us here has praised rioters or looters. You're so used to being a victim, you actually perceive things that don't exist. I myself have twice made an attempt to explain the looters to you, as has O really but you persist in your delusional nonsense and your preference to be a victim at any cost. I've seen more than a few video clips on reputable media outlets showing city officials throughout the country making statements against looters. You must have missed them......BECAUSE YOU INSIST ON BEING A VICTIM NO MATTER WHAT. What happened in your life to turn you into a perpetual and universal victim? Did it hurt?

Here's a Yugo with two V8 Cadillac engines. This sort of rig would be nice to have in some of those places in Asia I've been where there were apparently no traffic laws or rules. You go.

Dang, that's awful. I think the worst aberration I've seen personally might have been the bug-eye Sprite with a 427 Cobra in it. This is waaaay worse.

Yeah, sort of what I thought. This thing is so over the top I had to post it for others to see. It probably doesn't need a heater since it can rely on the radiated heat from those engines on a cold winter day.

shouldn't any article about anything with two 427s at least mention top speed, or even cruising speed?

Or did I miss something

Yeah, a lot was missing. Like are both engines really functional. I saw a dual engine truck at a show where the engine in the bed would fire up, but didn't really drive anything. I have no idea what sort of Rube Goldberg set-up you'd have to have to run both of them to the wheels.

Like a tank, one for the front left and one for the front right wheel.
