Yup the widow-maker

If that boost comes on in the middle of the turn you have to stay on boost to keep the back end from spinning around like a pendulum. Many people would catch the turn boost comes on, instinctively you want to lay off the throttle because you just got kick

Vacheron 222 feedback…

I maybe close to getting this after 2 years wait… any feedback from owners or guys that saw it live? I own few pateks and the Vacheron 4500 but this would be my first all Gold watch. I love the fact that is a mix of elegance and sporty… I also appreciate

The contrasting vision!

I drove across Arizona to Calif today in 6 hours. We stayed on Highway 8 for 347 miles. No stops, no turns, 65-75 mph for 5 hours or so. Elevation ranging from sea level to 4500 ft back to sea level. No recharging. No worries. One tank and still have 100

Yes, that was very early in its residence in my garage

When I was out at Santee Lakes last week, we drove by the very spot where my 500-mile break-in occurred, and the redline on the digital tach jumped went from 4500 to 6500. It was like a cork pulled out of the exhaust pipe!

I was custodian of just this model, when friends went on a world tour with nowhere to leave the car except my driveway

That was a pretty fun experience but I must say the gearing was a little "short" and at highway speeds the revs were about 4500 RPM. I could be mistaken though, as it was in 1980 which seems to be a longish time ago! Cazalea

I have been doing a drive around our county (desert, mountains) at least once a year in the Lotus(es) since about 2000

Something like this (from my GPS plotter) from elevation near sea level 100 ft to 4500 ft to -276 below sea level and back Cazalea

DB5 Goldfinger Continuation …

I had the pleasure of visiting AM to see the cars under construction. Each car takes approximately 4500 hours to construct, using body panels from original pressings. The 4.0-litre 290bhp in-line six-cylinder engine has a few small tweaks to deal with mod
