If you ask the Palestinians, ISRAEL is a Nazi state...
 
I was watching a Henrik Larsson goals comilation on youtube the other day and I thought "Good ould Swedishguy. Hes a crackpot contributor to the boards who posts the same picture of himself again and again, eveytime saying "check out this pic" or something. He has sparks of occasional brilliance and is utterly mental." then when I saw you had changed your custom description to something i said I thought I'd pay tribute!
 
How can you check if someone has blocked you in MSN? Or does the program tell you if someone blocks you?
 
How do you yanks measure engine size? CC being metric I guess you dont use that.

Cubic inches is the traditional way, though many engines are now measured in liters. One funny one is the Ford "5.0" engine, which is actually closer to 4.9 l

But generally, large, old-fashioend cast-iron V-8s are still measured in cubic inches, and the newer smaller engines are referred to in liters. "Smaller" meaning anything less than 5 liters! :eek:
 
Wjhats the whole "Fifty and Perfection" thing? they seem to be OT legends but I havent seen them doing anyhting spectacular... dont mean that in a bad way, just wonder if I've missed somehting
 
What is the fastest 0-60 mph (0-96.56064 kph) commercially available car on earth?

So many cars are so close that it's hard to say. Part of the problem is that cars are now so powerful that "only" getting to 60mph is more a matter of how good the grip on the road is than how poweful the engine is. Thus, cars with four wheel drive have an advantage over two wheel drive cars getting to 60 mph, but the added drivetrain losses make 4 wheel drive slower when accelerating to higher speeds. So the question becomes: do you want a jackrabbit or a cheetah? The rabbit can beat the cheetah off the line, but the cheetah wins a longer race, say to 120 mph.

All that aside, Volkswagen has built a car and put Bugatti badges on it that is the best of both worlds: 4WD and 1001 horsepower.

Weighing almost two tons, this is the "brute force" approach. Claim is 0-60 in 2.7s. Faster cars might exist, but they probably don't meet the "production" criterion.

Perfection is all about lots of posts, but I've seen Perfection carry a debate many a time.

Fifty I believe makes a lot of powerful arguments.
