The original saying makes much more sense. It’s “you can’t eat your cake and have it too” meaning if you eat it. You can’t also have it side it’s already been eaten. Also, totally random side note, the fact the original motto is so uncommon, when the Unibomber said in his manifesto, it clued his brother in to tip off the FBI and it’s what lead to his arrest.

For a worth it series, do the Celica 5th Gen, all cars can be found in the US, alltrac especially. But the Gt-4 RC also can exist, the premium awd Japanese model everyone tries to make their normal Celica look like. Could do a stock vs modded in each trim. Lots of 5th Gen guys in the united states.

ACH is one of the sneakiest most dangerous roads to drive. I climb up to Mount Wilson (Road bike) a ton and grew up in Altadena. I've seen so many cars totaled on ACH. I used to take my built F80M up there and the road is deceptive.. It begs you to push and commit, and if you lift you're spinning out or hitting the wall, or worse going off the cliff... I've had to wait for CHP to pull people out and seen one too many fatalities.. On my road bike I can hit 40+ mph on the descent from Mount Wilson to Clear creek station. It's deceptively steep and if you're not a skilled enough driver to understand pushing your car while going down a grade, you'll be in trouble..
@Unicornpirate3 ай бұрын
@@creativeclectic And that's why no matter how skilled you are, you never push beyond 7/10th in the canyons. Keep it on the track. But inexperienced drivers (especially today given how fast modern cars are) think they are Aryton Senna and go the Crest, GMR, or Azusa Canyon road and turn off traction control and drive 10/10ths for some odd reason. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Best without a blow off valve. I had one on a SR20det, which is almost the same turbo that's on this setup, crazy response and potent power. Not all about big singles guys!!
