An insane collection of Group A Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 parts from Dick Johnson Racing that has landed in the hands of a British Sierra fanatic, including an unused shell, unused shocks, brakes, uprights, plastic trim pieces and diffs.

That machine's on an entirely different level. Comments are absolutely full of old timers saying "I knew of one at work back in my day and the apprentices were not allowed within fifty feet of its special climate controlled room".

Seems unlikely it's currently capable of holding its original tolerance specs, but god drat those were impressive specs.

Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

I remember those inductive paddles being discussed as a requirement back in the '90s for safe charging in wet conditions. Obviously it turned out there were better ways.

IIRC Ranger EV used the same kind of setup.

edit: Nope, the Ranger EV used the Avcon connector, though that does use the same protocol as modern chargers so it's actually possible to convert the trucks that escaped the crusher.

I think I've mentioned it in this thread, but Puddin's Fab Shop is the most entertaining car channel on Youtube by a mile. He does a mix of "Will it run?" and fabrication on a stable of minitrucks.

I don't know if this fact says something about me or about Youtube, but the algorithm has been recommending videos from a channel called "Hobo Shoestring". The host hops rides on freight trains. That's the channel.

I love that channel as he just pulls the thing apart without even looking most of the time pointing out all the issues the transmission has and all the upgrades they do to fix those problems. People are sending their transmissions across country to him now so the channel worked out from a business prospective.

That's such a German method of tire balancing.

I didn't realise Pastrana's Subaru had the active aero, that's cool as gently caress. As is his dash with its 80's vibe too:

this guy has insane levels of knowledge but its scary how bad his shakes are in some of these videos. bare hands constantly in hydrocarbons for decades.... I assume a bunch of xxxx-clean spray inhalation over the years too. that poo poo causes PNS damage. I notice in his new videos he wears gloves so hopefully some of that damage can reverse.

He's mentioned in previous videos that the tremors are a family trait, and at least one of his adult children has them too. So hopefully not exposure-related.
