The roar of the V-8 touring cars can be heard throughout the city (they're about 5 km from my place) indicating Mad March and the festival season is upon us.

That loudly announces that the ill informed think spring has arrived. Smarter drivers, who can read a calendar, also know a V-8 is obsolete technology. Even superior designed race cars no longer have V-8 engines.

Well, the groundhog did not see his shadow. Those educated by groundhogs would also rev low performance V-8s. To convert most gasoline into wasted heat. So they feel that spring has arrived.

I saw a near naked model in Sports Illustrated. That proves spring has arrived? Or that I hacked a copy.

Nah, mate, it means Autumn has arrived.

And when a 5.0 litre engine puts out 600+ horsepower using 85% ethanol fuel, I wouldn't call it low performance or obsolete.

But the Formula One V-8s produce 300 bhp per liter.


Love the Aussie Supercars, they make me tingle in my naughty bits.
