    Florida's new drag racing law

    Re: Florida\'s new drag racing law I bet it won't stand up to the first lawsuit. Kind of like the federal asset seizure laws. If you can afford an attorney, you get your stuff back, especially if you were never convicted of anything, and/or charges were dropped.

    Help! Car died on acceleration!

    RayG, when the car bucked for a second (your second post), did it seem 'mechanical'? I've had a broken motormount on a TH350, on pre-OBD car, and I could 'tell', but it didn't shut off. Does the transmission seem as if the shaking could be caused internally, not from a bad motormount?

    Help! Car died on acceleration!

    I've had a sudden loss of power under acceleration due to a bad alternator/battery. It was a night with all accessories on. However, after it died, it wouldn't start. The battery wouldn't hold a charge, and the alternator wouldn't charge/supply power.

    Not cooperating is not grounds for 'reasonable cause'.

    A new danger for everyday drivers

    It's not ilegal not to cooperate with the police, only to lie to them. After checking to make sure the car was in the garage, you could tell them it is secure and that's it. You are not obligated to let them in, regardless of what they say. And if they say 'If you haven't done anything wrong...

    Aluminum Flywheel Question

    Personally, my alum flywheel upgrades have been as a full upgrade(clutch/f-w/etc.), I would not do it just for that. When you need to replace the clutch, upgrade.

    Gallardo dyno video

    Back in the glory days of muscle cars, they used gross hp rating. The engine without the accessories. However things changed in the mid/late-70's (or so), and they started using net hp rating. The engine with accessories. But that is still without drivetrain loss (15-18%). So, 414 RWHP from a...

    A Viper for the Ill-informed Public

    For this one bad driver I can come up with a dozen that were responsible with high HP cars. And for every other bad driver you give me, I can come up with more that are good drivers. a bad analogy, but: When you buy a bushel of apples, at least one will be bruised/squishy/unedible. You always...

    Local teen killed last night in new SRT-10...

    Maybe the reason he got it at 17 was to get a years experience in other cars. Maybe no one told his parents he was a bad driver (speculative) and he did stupid things while driving. Orrrrrrr, he was a good driver (again, speculative) and he failed in one area: Learn gradually what your car...

    How should my car be broken in? And when to do the oil changes?

    Skip, I agree about the 'setting'. Growing up, I would always hear run it for 1/2 hour on the highway, this way and that way for breaking an engine in. However, I decided to borrow from a friend who races 750cc motorcycles. Naturally you will have some miles after getting it home, but this works...

    Local teen killed last night in new SRT-10...

    When I grew up, we had teens with BOSS302, SS 396, a chevy II with a blown small block, Mach 1 428SCJ, etc.. It was how the teen was raised. One person I went to school with had a scooter, would do stupid things on it, and killed himself while driving his mom's car. I wasn't surprised. He was...
