    Upper radiator hose collapsing, BHG?

    bad hose, radiator cap, and possibly t-stat radiator cap isn't allowing coolant to be sucked back into the system from the overflow, the hose is old and worn and is collapsing at a lower pressure than it should, and the t-stat could be causing a blockage that causes too much vacuum... get...

    YOU SIR, make me sick. *CAUTION GRAPHIC PICTURES*

    let's see... possible race car with crazy stickers, I've seen far worse... Remember that they are stickers and are easily removed (much like many of the big name guys do so they can go incognito when needed). Now the stupid colors on the wheels, the stupid wing, and the stupid add on...

    LF-A fastest time @ Nürburgring 7:24 of any production car ever

    doubt it with their way of going for the throat these days (new tundra is a good example) Toyota is a force to be feared if they took the family gloves off... Also, is that the old or new ZO6?

    2009 Corvette

    granted, the damn new ZR-1 should have had damn OHC heads like the old ZR-1... Pushrods suck compared to a DOHC setup with variable valve timing... Yes it's awesome what the engine is capable of, but image mow much BETTER the power band would have been with variable valve timing...

    Manufacturer V6 vs L6

    Boxers are about the same as an inline layout, but they have a couple issues... mainly packaging and the rev limit is absolute (go over it and very bad stuff happens) Actually, mechanical engineers find the I6 layout to be damn near perfect and the end-all-be-all as you say to engine...

    2009 Corvette

    TG is very spot on, and compared to what the corvette is out there to compete against in Europe (ZO6, gonna have to watch the normal C6 episode again), it has issues... Keep in mind that Jeremy is a bit funny. He makes fun of lambos but owns one...
