  1. Shit, you could have a Bugatti Veyron on your wrist. I did not realize Jacob and Co makes some very expensive watches. Some of those are very complex. This thread did not go where I hoped it would. Where did everyone go?
  2. Why is Electric the technology that is decided to power our cars of the future? We dont produce enough power to power all the cars in the world. Nuclear is the only way to do it and those plants are getting shut down. Hope you like what your electricity bill is now, because it will never be that low again. At least the Nikola Badger is Hydrogen/Electric. But there are no Hydrogen filling stations.
  3. I was thinking about this the other day. What is a vintage or past model of a watch that was the watch of the day? Like the AP ROO is very popular today. What was the AP to get in say 1950(for example)? Im curious about all brands with long history's. What about Pocket Watches when they were big?
  4. Mike the Cop is calling it quits. His reason's make sense to me.
  5. I think we are at the point now where it gets beat by a few minutes at a time. I think now people will have to come up with new routes now. I get the current route at least start and end point is historical. But why not a furthest north east to furthest south west spot? Or maybe do a West to East now?
  6. Thanks. I didnt know they were doing interviews. I have seen other interviews with Mr. Alot, he is interesting. This week is a busy one for Podcast's. Doug DeMuro on TST, Fighter Pilot Podcast, this, Drinking Bros, Collion Noir just recorded JRE.
  7. Great lineup! What color is the Vette?
  8. Wow! Is this the record Ed was talking about that is sub 26 hours? I bet it is. Crazy that its a solo run. I have no desire to be a part of a team. Solo hell no, my max is about 8 hours in the car.
  9. It's going to keep happening. If you keep tieing the cops hands or charge them every time they shoot their gun, who wants to be under that much pressure. So it will be shoot the suspect and face charges or dont shoot and risk dieing. This shooting seemed to be the most justified shooting I've seen in awhile. Saw this posted on Facebook. Hmm....
  10. Obviously this year is not going the way anyone planned. What car manufacturers do you think might not exist after the dust settles? McLaren Mortgage's headquarter and cars in the building. I dont follow car media too close, but this one popped up. Who else is in trouble? One of the small super/hyper car makers will probably go away. What about mainstream manufacturers? Any of them going away?
  11. I dont keep track of any except Speed Society. But SS is always giving away something. I wondered how it makes sense too.
  12. I've heard that before. I think it was on a more recent podcast of The Smoking Tire. I cant remember who said it or where in the podcast it was said. But the guy who said it is a C5 owner. It make's perfect sense. You can get a C5 Z06 for 30k or you can get a C6 Z06, which is a way better car for 35-40k.
  13. I think the C6 is a great looking car. I like the C5s too, but they are stupid expensive for a 20 year old car.
  14. People are asking stupid money for them right now. Is anyone getting 125k for one? More than 100 for the base model Corvette seems stupid to me. You are starting to compare it to so many other cars at that price point.
  15. Workers at the Smith-field plant that made the national news are returning Monday. Look for the States numbers to spike again. And I wonder who all they will infect.
  16. Oh god. I hope the peak isnt mid Summer. I doubt the place I work for will be able to last that long, at least in its current form. Hope I am a member of the new form. Im starting week 3 at home. So far still working at an ok rate. On a positive note my mortgage payment will be going down, because it appears I was lucky and got the lowest possible rate locked in for my number of years. And I'm not taking cash out, maybe I should.
  17. I spoke to my doctor last Friday(yearly Physical). He wasnt super concerned so I didnt think TP would be horded and am now concerned. Started a refinance last week. Hope Im still locked in, went up half a point this week. And it no longer makes sense. I never work from home and Im now at home next week.
