True, but at least I'll have the satisfaction of polishing my car.

If you have it gold-plated, you can spend your nearly ALL of your time polishing your own knob like Gnat...

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

I heard Gnat's wrist is always sore/tired.
Thought it was from tennis? Or winding his Rolex?
Guess not 8-)

There is not enough information here from Cuda. I am not impressed.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
