The creativity of humans is amazing. My idea of creative is when I draw a perfect square on a piece of paper, equidistant to the edges...

Here's another brilliant video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42E2fAWM6rA

Few things car-related make me tear up and howl with laughter, but this did. Pure genius, and even better for the very "forum-ish" aspect of some of the comments. What a meeting of cultures.

Thanks for posting the link!

I've seen that movie clip applied to a lot of different topics.

This was the best by far.

It's good to see a fresh new take on an idea that is sorely overdone.

As for PDK, given Porsche is letting customers run launches ad nauseum -- with no hint of transmission fatigue -- I doubt they're worried about the clutch pack on 1st gear. Whatever Nissan has done, they apparently couldn't fix it in the software (and their efforts to fix it in the legal-ware are suicidal.)

That's so funny.. !

You guys think the new Turbo will be available w/ PDK and launch control at the same time? I think what hurts the GT-R the most is really the AWD.. launching an AWD car aggressively is very hard on the powertrain..
