KozmoNaut posted:MCM tests whether electric superchargers work. I enjoyed this. I had always wondered what would happen if you took a huge rear end compressor and air tank and rigged it up to the intake. You would need a very large flow pressure regular and set it to whatever you wish. Or you could run 250 pounds of boost for 5-10 seconds  .Fake edit: blah blah blah its basically NOS but worse. Yea I know. It's just like a leafblower supercharger.

I apologize in advance for this video's quality, but nothing warms the cockles of my heart than seeing a Prelude with bolt-on body kit, a vinyl from a Fast and Furious film, and a non-functional wing try and Gymkhana itself around a parking lot whilst scraping the body in gentle turns. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bml8DONNSCo

He cuts off the guys he's interviewing a lot though. At least sometimes they have "extended" videos where the guys talk more about what they're doing. He's got some really nice cars and I'm glad he's talking about them and showing them off.

MCM is surprisingly good. It's like a more goofy, technical, Australian Top Gear (for the rest of the world).

He does tend to cut off people, but I think part of it is his talk show experience and needing the segments to be relatively brief for the website. Another part seems to me that he's just that enthusiastic in a "listen to all the weird poo poo I know" kind of way, he seems a bit spergy about cars in general.

Around here (Northeast US, and I don't know how prevalent it is.) people use "Mad" to modify an adjective. Ex. "That's mad cool!" or "That's mad stupid." I like their usage more.

Also, he brings up how Caddys were the cars Americans wanted to own from the 30's until the 70's, but I'd say it wasn't just Americans. Cadillac in that period was every bit as good as Rolls Royce, and people all over the world wanted them and acknowledged their quality. I wish American cars had that much style today..... hell I wish any car had style like that. Seizure Meat fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Dec 21, 2012 |

There are tons of Russian dash cam videos on Youtube, people drive with dash cams because of insurance scams etc. Seems like it would be a good idea to get one if you live in Australia, too  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYm9vCPLoG4 E: Oh man, the comments on Jalopnik and Youtube are full of people going "this is why gun control is bad" and "I would have plugged him right in the loving face". As if mr. Road Rage wouldn't also have had a gun and plugged the victim instead of "just" trying to run him off the road. KozmoNaut fucked around with this message at 10:22 on Dec 22, 2012 |

That's why you should always drive with a fire extinguisher within reach. They're just as good for stopping road rage as they are saving life from a VW in process of self-destruction. It's pretty loving hard to aim a gun or throw a fist if you can't breathe. It's also quite impossible to not look like a clown all covered in foam. Road rage defense 101:
