They've hardly managed to refrain from personal insults. (prick got a good run).

I asked if my 'doubter' was "15 or something", which, as it turns out, he was. I stated that making these...

As difficult to understand as your post was, I gather, or rather, assume, that the original post I responded to was actually posted by a 15 year old boy.

Now if this person is really 15 years old...

You can buy Porsche 'Big Reds' as they call them, on the internet from maybe a dozen places. They cost about $1500 per set with cross-drilled rotors and pads, brand new in the original Porsche box. I...

The Cayenne outsold the 911 and the Boxster 'added together' in the last half of 2003, and the trend continues. The fact is that Audi (AKA Lamborghini) can't afford not to make a Lambo SUV, and, it...

I sat in a sidewalk cafe in Dusseldorf on a street called Koenigs Alley (or similar) and sat there drooling the whole time as it was like a supercar show cruising the street there. Apparently it's a...

Let me tell you, having driven all over the world, and clocked up a million kilometres, many as a professional driver and hundreds of laps on Superbikes at 260 plus speeds, this Ferrari was doing 280...

The GT3 felt like a 400hp go-kart and even though it was slower than the Gallardo (on the street) I could feel every crack and nuance in the road surface.

The Gallardo felt fast and surefooted,...

Years ago I saw a book with many of his designs. The truck was shown with it's trailer, which was connected to the prime-mover with an aero curtain and the wheels were covered. He is most famous for...

Only 7% of Germany's autobahns are unlimited speed zones. In rain conditions the speed is 130kph. In summer, there are roadworks everywhere, particularly in east Germany, and millions of tourists on...

That's the whole point of this thread. Subaru makes claims that aren't true. The torque split they profess to make is actually a viscous coupling that only applies drive to the other wheels based on...

Pro`por´tion
Noun 1.
proportion - the quotient obtained when the magnitude of a part is divided by the magnitude of the whole

Torque proportioning is a little like brake bias proportioning. The...

All manual gearbox four-wheel drive Subarus use a centre viscous coupling.

All constant all-wheel drive cars use a centre diff. In the same way that a normal differential allows the inner and...

When an athlete takes a banned substance in order to qualify for the Athens Olympics we call him a disgrace to the nation and a cheat. No-one hides behind the impossible standards of elite...

The ANZAC test, a football game played on the ANZAC eve is between Australia and New Zealand with very few WWII veterans making the starting 13. In my travels around the world I have never met anyone...

I think if we're talking about the best Aussie and Kiwi drivers the list should be of the greatest 'Oceania' drivers. Where the hell is Australasia anyway, wasn't that Paul Keating's sad 80's sell...

The Sydney Lamborghini sales manager called me recently about a test drive in the new Gallardo (pronounced GAY-ardo). I met him at the Sydney Motor Show last October and he followed me up with a call...

I should have mentioned that the German trucks with the exhaust outlet low and in the passenger window, also had soot traps, which are like mufflers the size of fuel tanks. No black smoke comes out,...

Regarding the HumVee post and the conclusion that I was a 4WD terrorist. OK, just to clarify, I drive a little german cabriolet and my wife has a Mazda6 Wagon. If either of us were hit by a Humvee...

Why do rice-burner drivers always put an exhaust outlet on their cars that they can fit their head into? Bigger is not better.

There is a point at which exhaust diameter exceeds optimal gas flow....

I was driving along the crowded freeways in western Europe where I was surprised to find that many large trucks had their exhaust outlets pointing right at the passenger window of my rental car. The...

The BMW is UGLY. The art form is fitting all that driving tech inside a shape that looks beautiful and performs as well. This is where the BMW fails.

Using F1 technology is a bit like like...

In a head on collision between a Subaru liberty and a HumVee, both travelling at 60kph, I suspect that the safest car in the world would be crushed, trampled over and all the occupants would be...
