]]> <![CDATA[Advanced Motoring with Gilbert Shelton]]> I love all of this (sort of) pro-responsible driving Jalopniky stuff, reminds you how crazy the average driver is. My friend's dad who builds and races with Evil Genius Racing in NorCal (they'd field a LeMons racer were they not so busy racing in well, more, shall we say professional races) and is still hesitant of going on the Freeway. He says that racing on a track with a bunch of professionals at over a hundred is fine, but driving next to a complete novice at sixty is insane. Makes me think twice before I get out on the road. Anywho, excellent post.

]]> <![CDATA[Advanced Motoring with Gilbert Shelton]]> @Charles_Barrett: Such a scenario would provide pretty useful for the MassPike. I already have a idea of installing an air compressor in the back of my mom's Civic. She never uses that damn horn anyway, and I'm sick of being cut off by bastards in beige Cayennes.

Always good to have around.

I think to push a 2CV to 150 KPH, you'd need a good 300 KwH of force...maybe more.

]]> <![CDATA[Advanced Motoring with Gilbert Shelton]]> When my folks were first dating while still in college, my dad spent one summer working with my Uncle Lou on the volunteer fire department. They regularly patrolled the road through Oak Creek Canyon (between Sedona and Flagstaff in Arizona).

The road gains elevation to Flagstaff through a series of tight switchbacks up the side of the mountain (and it is much the same today). In the fire engine, they would get behind some slow-moving sedan full of grey-haired occupants. Obnoxious youth that they were, they'd delight in hitting the air-horn and watch the resulting loss of composure of the sedan's occupants...

If these last couple posts are a direct result of our collective complaining about a lack of flaky Jalopian weirdness of late, then I think we complainers owe ourselves a collective pat on the back.
