The only possible way for EVs to be based is to have a brushless motor connected directly to the accelerator. Oh yeah, and to drop the faggy macbook aesthetic
>>28844235Technically you can't really do that because the initial resistance of a coil is basically zero and only goes up once the field is built up so 100% voltage into an electric motor working against considerable resistance results in a blown fuse or a burning motor.But yes you could get better response just by tuning the software or changing to an open system.But it would get boring eventually.
>>28844246>>28844249Anon, we're talking about an experience, not the actual technology required to achieve it. A BEV that will let us do what we want. If that can be supplied it's not worth it. Ford did a promotional e-stang where they let Ken Block fuck around in it. That is what we want. https://youtu.be/4-7jBLqSlzgI can go pull some 440 powered rust heap out of a field that will not limit me in any way beyond what it is physically still capable to doing.
>>28844251>If that can not be supplied it's not worth itSorry, typo.
>>28844251The tragedy of the modern car...Everything is locked down, leaving little room for tinkering.There was a time when car manufacturers "lost" sources of their motor control software in public places to allow tinkerers to get their hands on it. But this is getting rarer and rarer.Any questions why cars as a hobby are dying?
>>28844251One thing I like to add:In an electric motor the biggest limiting factor is heat. You can overload them for short periods, if you give them time to cool down again.Most BEVs max power rating is well beyond the sustained power rating of the motors and inverters involved, so they have to limit power output at some point to prevent the coils from melting.

>>28843479I'm in the silent generation, although barely. My first ever car was a model A. Been shitposting here since 2004.

A thread to discuss Buick's premiere 2-seater luxury coupe
>>28842838Based boomerpost.
>>288374643800 v6, fwd, supposed to be an SL competitor but it was not a convertible for a long time for some reason. It's like an Allante but much, much worse.Truly a useless shitwagon.
>>28842686That v6 could have been a killer, if oriented correctly.
>>28842838OH FUCK! We doing boomer posting again?! Ah shit, I love this!
>>28843204>It's like an Allante but much, much worseand that's saying something
What can I get that>has at least 4 seats>has actual room to fit stuff>is at least kind of fun to drive>is at least mostly reliable>is at least pretty good/cute looking

E34 Wagon 525i with stickE39 Wagon 530i with stickGolf GTI/R/R32 4 door90s Accord Wagon with stickE55 w201 AMG wagon
>>28843848I meant w210 not w201
>>28843828It fits all of them though? It won't do home depot trips, but it has decent space.
>>28843932>>is at least mostly reliable
Did you know that one of the most popular motorsports in Europe is NASCAR on dirt bikes with no brakes or gearbox?
Nice.
>>28843682U.S. has dirt oval bikes also. Just not very popular.
>>28843682Those Sprint cars are crazy.500+ horsepower in a 1,500lb cartSome over 800 horsepower 1,000lbs+ downforce 1.5Gs on DIRT.
>>28843681That looks kinda like flat track racing.
>>28843681>>28843682I knew both of these things, yes
Will a motorcycle improve my odds of getting a gf?
>>28842256>failure to adequately service your bike is def a skill issueBut not of the rider. Checkmate
>>28842849No. It'll reduce it as you'll need to fund the bike
What kind of motorcycle do girls like? I think a touring bike would suit my needs the best but I also think it's one of the less cool kinds
>>28842474It's just normal long. Wouldn't call it excessively long.>>28843900Read the thread you lazy shitskin
>>28843905>normal longso like down to her butt, i take it shes always kept it that length too
If I lower a Ford bronco, would it become a hot hatch?
>>28844050NTA but yeah, i have no interest in off roading, i just like the way the bronco and wrangler look. I wish there were more boxy SUVs. Get rid of the off road tires and give something better for the street
>>28844052I wish more people could admit they just want boxy macho truggs and don't care how awful the vehicles are to get that look. That said, Ford is losing MILLIONS daily by not selling a Bronxpedition.
>>28844053boxy doesnt mean macho, we're jst tired of the soapbox blobshit eggshit pushed on us for the past 30-40 years.
>>28844063girl please you want it to project masculinity, be real
>>28844068i dont want it to project femininity i suppose pic related projects femininity, its a girl cuckover
Do Mercedes drivers also drive like that?
>>28842331maybe in romania or whatever other gypsy shithole you're from they are like thathere bmw drivers drive like normal people (because they are)
>>28842998
>>28842331Once upon a time I might have been confused by that last one but after seeing that faggot on here parking like that and taking photos to show us it makes a lot more sense.
>>28842331Agter driving an f30 I've come to realise the reason bmw drivers don't use the turn signals is because they work funny. They don't click on or off, they push past a resistance point but stay centered. Guess that's too hard for them to figure out, or they think they are broken.Can't speak for earlier models though.

>>28843678>White wiggers trying to look brown.
>who grassed on us?
Fuck cruise control.
>letting someone else (small gnomes inside the computer) drive your car for youthe ultimate cuck
>>28843618>Willingly giving yourself skeletal issuesEnjoy your tendinitis.
>>28843670I don't use cruise control and I've been driving for like 30 fucking years almost and I don't have tendonitis. You're weak.
So it looks like next year's vehicles will not have Start/Stop features? What else can we expect?
>>28843510I'm a little torn because approach unlock and not having to get the fob out of my pocket is nice when I have to move my mom's car, but I also like turning a key.Maybe a compromise like a covered switch?
>>28843490That's a good one amerifriend
>>28843458usually porches dont move
>>28843454CVT disposable transmissions should be the next to go.
>>28843729CVTs are the king of shitbox commuterslop though.Maybe they could be less fragile though.

Y’all ever go shopping at police impounds? I was hoping to get something on the cheap but the cities are being cucked as usual. Already have reliable transport so if this one shits the bed I guess I can put it up on blocks and slap a modelo sticker on the back.
>>28842296you need to be literally retarded to think the police would make some sort of 'do not tow' record.
>>28842296>call police department>they tow your car out of spite for wasting their timeThe police are not your friends. They will not give you a pass.
>>28843006>>28843059I've literally had to do this.
My first truck was an impound hazardous bio car. Guy ran from cops and got ventilated in it. When I bought it, it had no driver glass, no seat, no floor mat, no headliner and holes through the rear bulkhead
>>28842228you think that's bad, my city has a 12 hour limit on street parkingadvantage is that it's only enforced during the week, on major arterial roads, or if someone actively calls bylaw on a specific block. it's a 3 strikes rule rather than a tow, unless you're blocking a driveway. disadvantage is that some people are faggots. I got dinged once because some cunt was trying to get another cunt's shitbox towed, I assume because they park it for weeks on end, then jump it just to get it to another spot for another several weeks. I think at least five of us on the street got tickets, but it never happened again, so I bet the idiot was one of the other three that got dinged
can they really do 480kmh in 3rd gear?
>>28843130Yeah but only 3rd. Don't try it in 4th you won't make it.
Yeah down the mooney mooney bridge
>>28843130Yes. You just need a deep enough mine-shaft to push it down
>>28843130Yeah put it inside a cargo plane and park it in 3rd gear with the engine shut off Pretty sure cargo planes can go that fast
>>28843130Well, I suppose if you had a straight stretch of track with a level grade, and you weren't haulin' no cars behind ya, and if you can get the fire hot enough, and I'm talkin' about hotter than the blazes of Hell and damnation itself... then yes, it might be possible to get her up that fast.
why don't americans slow down and let people merge in front of them? they would rather crash then let someone "cut them off"
