      Everything about that channel is awesome.
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        HOW IN THE HELL IS THIS POSSIBLE? I mean, the lug nuts alone.

                  No, I didn't. Now I know.

                          f1 really has been a source of brilliant engineering. getting 600hp out of 1.6l is really amazing. interestingly, nascar still requires five lug nuts.

                            That's because they are stock cars!

                              Man, we use some weird units of measure in civil engineering in the United States. Foot-candles? Acre-feet? I'm glad I'm mostly in bridges and rail so I can deal with normal things like kips and Million Gross Tons.
