MrZig posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_eVE6KQ4Jg Anyone know how it was actually driving that course? Are the turns, acceleration, and braking pre-programmed into the guidance system, or is it based on something like following a very precise GPS route? Or is it doing all that based on real-time sensors that can see the cones?

Seems like when the driver's not trying to run over spectators, the car's trying to light them on fire.

Look at those tiny cars with their tiny tiny engines. For the next quarterly department meeting at work, we've arranged for it to be held at this place: http://www.dieselhouse.dk/index_UK.html Probably the only purely diesel-related museum in the entire world and home of the bigass H. C. rsted diesel engine, the biggest in the world from 1932 to 1964 with 22500hp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JyRY9aiMOQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b224PbkSEBg And a bunch of other diesel-related stuff as well. As a huge diesel nerd, this is going to be sooooo cool!

Triple A posted:Ford Escorts, driven sideways. I really wish that the WRC would revert back to rear wheel drive. Much more fun to watch. Also gently caress your 600hp turbo drift machines, have a 2L NA with what 250hp at the most throwing them around corners for km on end instead of a nice safe racetrack.
