    Top Gear - Clarkson, review of the Tesla

    From the Tesla owner's web site... "For the record: Thanks to The Stig’s impressive turn behind the wheel, the Tesla Roadster gets a higher ranking in Top Gear’s performance board than a Porsche 911 GT3. Jeremy Clarkson, a die-hard “petrol head” with a clear bias against green cars generally...

    Top Gear - Clarkson, review of the Tesla

    Thanks for the post. I’ve been waiting for this one for a long time. I’m always torn by Clarkson’s show. I enjoy it, but I never like how he skews his commentary more for entertainment purposes than for helpful reporting. I remember when he said his GT only got 4mpg. I can’t imagine how he...

    Rubber tray

    I saw rubber trays being sold at the Rally that fit on the center console under the radio (DBK?). Are they still around? If so, who's selling them? Thanks

    I think you would only be a redneck if you thought that by putting a second engine in your car, you would go faster.

    Full Flag Salute for Colin Powell

    I've always respected him. If he were running for president, there would be very a good chance he would get my vote.

    I generally shift from 1st to 3rd until the engine is totally warmed up, otherwise it does grind a bit.
