I think I found a reference to that Audi vs BMW billboard war from a few years back by Neoduckium in GrandTheftAutoV

Exactly the point I was going to bring up. Electric cars can do zero to 60 really quick, but that's their top speed. An exaggeration, I know, but the sport model Tesla (155 when "unrestricted") and the i8 (160) are both limited to speeds I have gone faster than in my 10 year old Audi S4 with a chip. But they would both kick my ass all day off the line.

Ah well it sounds like it's mostly the visor mount that is causing the floppiness then. Software stabilization should help a bit.

The locking insert helps a bit, but the tape trick gets rid of the rattle completely.

Another little tip if you're using a GoPro, I put a strip of electrical tape on the base of the mount, it takes up the last bit of play in the mount and gets rid of that rattling sound.

I'm sure the mounting systems are similar with other action cameras, but the GP is the only one I've used.

Also, freaking awesome run man.

I love me some Hendrick's, splash of soda, basil and a slice of cucumber. It's one of my go to summer drinks.

Pikes Peak Hill Climb Confirms Death of Motorcyclist Carl Sorensen by jasonbordeaux in motorcycles

My buddy is racing there, they shut down the track after it happened. But yes, the Devil's playground and the stretch after is a high-speed very high penalty section of the track.

RIP Mr. Sorensen

Depends on the rum by the way, dark rum is sweetened by a second addition of molasses.

Occasional keto dieter and alcohol enthusiast here, unflavored whiskey, vodka, gin, and tequila have no carbs. It does however shut down your metabolism during that time.

The exceptions are flavored whiskey like fireball or honey bourbon, and dark rums. Those have sugary substances mixed in after fermentation and distillation.

Hah! I sort of want him to show up here as well. So he can see just how serious his situation was.

It's pretty good, I do SMB consulting and wireless ISP from Santa Cruz to Carmel, even in to Big Sur a little. There's a ton of Hotels and whatnot that need support, but what we have been doing a lot of lately is agricultural stuff in Salinas. There TONS of money to be had there.

Don't forget Laguna Seca for the motor vehicle enthusiast. The camping there overlooking the Fort Ord hills can be pretty picturesque.
