Cats Home From The Vet Totally Tripping Balls

PlayhousePals says...

Poor woozie babies. Last year, after my Elwood came home from a dental procedure, he was so comfortable curled up in my lap he just peed. Jake pees in the carrier before we even see the vet ... no need for drugs. Reminds me, gotta stock up on pee pads before their yearly exams this coming Monday. Sigh

Canada vs. USA -- Debates

RedSky says...

I watched some snippets of it for amusement. It's pretty clear the US debate, especially during the primaries are geared towards entertainment. I really hope this isn't the direction that debates go here in Australia although our short campaign cycle means we usually only get a few debates anyway.

They did ask the obvious tough questions of candidates like Trump (bankruptcies, PCness) but the willingness to let them ramble on with empty platitudes and campaign lines (not just the moderators not keeping them in check but the audience's willingness to lap it up) really speaks to how it's much more about emotion and attitude than content.

Happy 100000th Mile, Van!

Payback says...

My truck rolled 200,000 in the middle of the afternoon on a Friday, half way through one of the city's busiest intersections. I stopped and me and my friend got out and did a victory lap around the truck yelling at the top of our lungs, 200,000!!! 200,000!!!

The other drivers weren't as impressed as we were.

RSR RAW: Porsche 918 Hot Lap - Spa

Enzoblue says...

The 918 Spyder has a Dual Clutch transmission that's usually used in automatic mode.

I'm guessing the adjustment he was making was brake bias, but who knows. It's a hybrid car so could be a lot of things.

Was also a bad lap from this guy. He missed a few apex's and I've seen porsche's flat out on some parts of this track where he wasn't. You can see his reaction when he's shown his time and he knows it wasn't his best.

Max Verstappen drives Dad Jos around Monaco

oritteropo says...



I found an actual transcript, translated to English (and video with the original sound, instead of having it turned down):

00:01 Max: Do I have to put the seatbelt on? CameraMan: I would put it on
00:07 Max: Nice isn't it! 17years old, can't drive on the road but here in Moncaco you can!
00:15 Jos: Well Max, we're going to do a lap of Monaco. You're going to tell us how you're going to do it.
00:25 Jos:It's quite weird to get driving lessons from your son!
00:28 Jos:Are you going to keep the car in one piece?
00:30 Max: Yeah no problem
00:33 Jos: Jezus Max! ehhh Fuck!
00:40 Max: There is a bump here so you need to go around it.
00:42 Jos:It's not fun at all to drive along with him to be honest.
00:45 Max: Come of the brakes here, back on the throttle, as close as you can get to the wall.brake as late as you can.
00:53 Jos: Everything ok with Olav in the back? (dutch comentator)
00:58 Max: Try to get some curb here and get a good exit out of here.
01:06 Jos: This is were we enter the tunnel, how fast do you drive here with a F1 car? Max: At the end of the straight around 290kph.
01:16 Jos:Where do you brake? Max: at the 120m mark, but we're not going to do that in this car because I have to safe the brakes a little bit.
01:29 Jos: I don't like this at all!
01:34 Max: This is where you can safe a lot of time towards the chicane and that one is almost full throtle.
01:46 Jos: I'm so glad the lap is almost done! Oh jezus.
02:01 Max: Get a good exit onto the straight.
02:08 Jos: Ok just slow it down now, I'm done with this after one lap.
02:14 Max: What? It went alright didn't it? Jos: Yeah, it looked alright. Olav: HolyMoly!

Massive GT4 European Series crash at Red Bull Ring

AeroMechanical says...

I dunno, I'm still not convinced. We aren't seeing what happened before though, and I'm assuming the inside car is the one doing the passing, which may not be the case. If you're passing someone on the inside and you're two wide in a corner, it certainly is your responsibility to leave room for the car you are passing. Though you could be right, it doesn't look to me as though the outside car turned into the inside car, and the driver certainly never would have done that intentionally because that would inevitably end in them both crashing (assuming this isn't a Prost/Senna sort of thing). Since they're both sweeping towards the outside, the way I see it, the inside car is the one that hit the car on the outside.

Granted, even in this scenario, the driver on the outside could and should have conceded the corner, but he isn't obliged to do so, and I certainly wouldn't have expected it on the final corner of the final lap of the race.

It will be interesting to see what the stewards say. Or said, I suppose they probably already said whatever and I can just google it.

edit: The Jalopnik link text seems to agree with my assessment, that it was the inside driver's fault if anybody is to be at fault.

There's a monkey on the car!

robbersdog49 says...

This is fucking hilarious. Kids are just sponges for this sort of thing. I've got an 18 month old boy and he's not quite talking yet but I'm having to really watch what I say so he doesn't pick anything up. I'm not great at it though...

As for Lucky760: Windscreen yes, but they are in a safari park, not on the road. I'd sit my little boy on my lap like that too in a safari park. I'm not going to pay a small fortune to take him in and then not see anything!

In the UK they call a windshield a windscreen and they call Mom's lap a carseat.

Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 SV: Nürburgring Nordschleife

newtboy says...

Blistering, and more than a little bit twitchy! I think some poo came out around lap time 4:47!
Weird vibration on the straight too, what was that?
