So I arrive at my destination like 10 minutes later than I would have. Big fucking deal. It's relaxing. I highly recommend if you're driving on the highway.

We're dumping Sled Driver, a 142 page coffee table book full of photos from an SR71 Pilot. It would be awesome if any of you aviation enthusiasts could pop over and provide commentary or information that we might have missed.
Come check it out!

How do you guys deal with these types of lights in the winter? Unlike a Miata for example, there isn't a button that will prop them up. Only way they go up is by turning them on next to the steering wheel. That leaves them ON though, even with the car off and will obviously drain the battery. What do? Don't want to risk them freezing in the winter when I need them.

Someone stole my neighbor's headlights last night. Dude is so pissed off.
Being where we live, it was probably niggers, but idk because niggers would have probably broke something in the process.

Superchargers increase engine displacement by forcing air in...
Could you decrease engine displacement by running a vacuum instead? The crankcase might need to be under a vacuum, too.
It would be intended as a fuel efficiency device for larger motors. Idling and cruising would benefit, yes?
The primary issue would be adjusting the fuel air mixture on the road when switching modes.

>Could you decrease engine displacement by running a vacuum instead?
No, your point is that you want to reduce the amount of air going in. Using a vacuum wouldn't be very effective. Instead you could just make sure the throttle doesn't open as much so it allows less air in. Most manufacturers already do this with their drive-by-wire systems.
