Hi-Ace in English, Haiēsu in Japanese In Malaysia and nearby they're like a quarter step down from a Mercedes S Class, usually spotted doing 95mph down the highway, or at least that was my experience Edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OQbOIPlcSA Music is

My friend and I were trying to find the Japanese equivalent of people leaving Cars and Coffee. I didn't find anyone spinning out, but did find this that had some cool cars in it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SRl40VOtjQ

Behind the front axle would make it behind the seats, making it mid engine right? That's a sports car

The perfect truck. ^^^ And yeah, majority of the the little kei trucks are mid engined, rear wheel drive too. There's a reason they stick bike engines in them and go skidding.

Since it’s mid engine I was really hoping that front panel with the headlights would swing open like a BMW Isetta, but the interior shot seems to say that’s not the case

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:We do planes and boats in AI so here is a Sydney to Hobart Maxi doing 38 knots downwind Pretty incredible that speeds like that are possible on wind power. I would like to note that 38 knots is also the official top speed of the SS United States, which is a thousand foot long ocean liner. It took 240,000 HP to hit that speed, making her the most powerful ship in the world outside of US aircraft carriers.

While I was googling to find out what the little personal hydrofoil sailboats I used to see in Toronto Harbour are called (Moths) and how fast they can go (35kts), I found out there's a thing called a kitefoil that will do 55kts and they're looking to go even faster. https://cleantechnica.com/2021/12/30/syroco-kite-powered-foil-set-to-shatter-sailing-speed-record/

Earlier this year, the Team New Zealand America's Cup squad set a new wind powered land speed record: https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/other-sports/131747199/team-nz-break-world-land-speed-record-again  225.58 km/h in 42 km/h of wind. (121.8 knots in 23 knots). Related, I saw one of the America's Cup foiling cats out on the water the other day, and it's still mindblowing how fast they can move across the water.

Foiling multihulls are like the cheat code of sailing. Wistful of Dollars posted:Why have one hull going that fast when you can have three? Absoltuy amazing for sure and mind blowing just how fast a foiling multi hull can go - For me tho more amazing that a non foiling deepwater ocean racer monohull can blast across Bass Straight at over 60kph.

BuckyDoneGun posted:Why buy a truck when you don't have to? Pretty impressive for a Silvia. I'd expect the sedan *on* the trailer to be better at towing (if it weren't set up for drifting, obviously.) One thing to note, though: I'd expect that Europeans build the trailers with towing with a not-giant-pickup in mind. I notice a lot of aluminum trailers in Euro towing (which is great - wish those weren't so hyper-expensive here.) cursedshitbox posted:doing more work than any 2500 Truth.

I didn't find anyone spinning out, but did find this that had some cool cars in it: Oh, man, those two first-generation RX-7s in the thumbnail... That's the style I want for mine. Early IMSA wide bubble flares rather than a full widebody. Both of those are an SA22C like mine, but the black one has a nose that replaces the steel bumper, while the white one still has the original bumper. Also, mmmm, straight six noises.

I would have expected them to chop the roof off a Mazda6 or something that would have been current at the time but what do I know.
