>he makes a thread
LMAO OP just mash the pedal to get to speed and be looking at the freeway to figure out sure the gap will be. Have your blinker on and people will notice you more and help give you room.

Is this the UK version of "oh gosh should I go fast or go slow when I'm merging onto the freeway from an on-ramp"?

For What It's Worth, in the USA you're expected to already be going as fast as you can (within speed limit) by the time you're reaching the end of the on-ramp (by the time you "join" the "slip road"). If you're going slow then it just mucks things up

If you're not keeping pace with the main carriageway you make it harder for everyoen behind you to merge

Points will fry, too. Good thing is, they can be unstuck or replaced pretty easily.

In what world would an EMP or solar flare happen?

I have my trashcan of nokia's and Motorola radios in my garage for years and that shit still hasn't happened.

>tfw I never have passengers

>>17429685

I have owned my car for almost 7 years and in that time I think my rear seats have been occupied by humans 30 times.

Everyone has a car, and everyone drives their own car to events, restaurants, nights out, etc.

that's most likely how it's going to go but ICE engine development will become way more niche, with EV becoming the powerplant norm. in a sense ICE will be kind of like rotary engines?

>>17429679
ICE and non self driving will become a niche market like horses are today

>>17429707
maybe not as niche as you think. there will be a sort of counterculter undercurrent that'll keep them somewhat popular, like motorcycles are.

also i'm not so sure about outlawing them. look at classic cars today, they meet no safety or emissions standards but legally they have an almost protected status and people, even non car people REALLY love them.

id love this 734 here let's go let's meet in ludington

Ferrari Dino V6

I'll argue that the SHO 3.2 sounds alright when it's louder than stock.

Here is the part in the parts list.
"SUPPORT, FRONT SUSPENSION"

>>17428988
Just looks like a baby reinforcement for a Macpherson Strut. Not all suspension arrangements need such things, like strut braces.

I am asking because I recently installed a strut bar ad removed the parts in question. I used pic related made from laser-cut 4mm stainless steel. Both parts are connected with a 30mm square tube. All holes were anlarged to 10mm to remove the heat affected zone.
I noticed that the car body's surface at the relevant area is not totally level. The part where the damper is mounted with the 3 nuts is slightly recessed compared to the area directly around it. So before installing the new parts I put a washer on each stud, so that the level of the stainless steel part is raised slightly. Everything should be perfectly fine this way, but it bothers me that I do not know the purpose of the parts I removed. Thanks in advance.
Oh, as expected, I did not notice any change in steering behaviour. I just did it because I like building stuff and had a little time to kill.
