If NASA, The NSA or the DIA wanted to hide a fact or change peoples names what they usually do is purge all documents in reference to that person and deny all knowledge of said people. They never visited, applied or worked there. End of story. This would be handled much like the Robert Lazar case. "It's all Fake". The problem with people in general is, they will pick apart a FACTUAL event and turn it into a conspiracy theory such as the Titanic, The JFK assassination, 9/11 and of course the 1969 moon landing. So nothing really stands a chance as being taken seriously. If the earth is flat, i'd imagine so is the moon and all the other bodies in a our galaxy. So riddle me this: How do you explain a crescent moon if it's flat? i know it's not the Earth but it stands to reason. How does it make a crescent shadow? Surely if it's flat that wouldn't be possible.

Yeah, i'd definitely go for the lighter option. Lightness is a weapon. The DC2 proved that many years back beating cars on track with twice the power which were heavier.

DC5 definitely. Awesome cars, slightly softer around the edges compared to the legendary DC2 but the extra power makes up for it.

I always thought Toyota made the noses too long on their designs - from the front wheel arch to the end of the bumper -including this one but i still think it looks really nice.

i'd say Amber but hey ho.

You know what, i'm going to start my own movement. The " i think the world is slightly not flat ( mountains ) and not quite round movement " And i'm going to prove it to be true armed with a set square and my Casio calculator watch. Undeniable evidence is coming your way!! Prepare to be spell-bound!

Sorry! This made me giggle

That really made me giggle. Couldn't read it without hearing Chief Wigam's voice in my head

Anyway, what's the benefit if the earth is flat? Doesn't change my life. If it's flat it's flat, i'm happy to accept it, if it's round it's round! Bonus. I guess the FE crew can say " Ha!, told you so" ........... and then? A disco?

Unless i've missed a trick here, perhaps half the trouble is a map that any of use can get of the world, does not give the correct proportions of size to certain countries, thus leads to confusion about distances and other such factors.

Stars that are further away appear to be red, as longer rays of light are seen by the human eye as so. The closer the star is, the more blue it is due to the fact that shorter light rays have this effect on our eyes. That's the general consensus. Physics on earth work on earth, since their basis is fundamentally researched and tested in earthly conditions. if you took our physics and mathematical theories to , lets say the Zeta Reticuli star system which is roughly 54 light years away, our physics and mathematics would not apply given the nature of time and gravitational differences of a binary star system. Gravity disturbs time in space so much so that our theories can be violated. Yes light can be bent as our sun has proven so by NASA, who claims that it is possible to see a star behind our sun as its tremendous gravity pulls light around it and gives an image of what's behind, in front . While NASA ( Never A Straight Answer ) does modify photos which have been taken in space, for various reasons, probably haven't modified those that show that the earth is "round" which it isn't a perfect circle but is close enough.

No that's o.k i didn't really read it as a dig at me but if it were.... i don't mind. I asked to be educated about something i'm not well versed in and i got a jeering negative response? if that is the case then i guess gangzoom is just showing his character. BUT i think my post was taken the wrong way. I wasn't saying " who's this dick and why the bloody hell would anyone want to send something to Mars?" No, i think it was just read in the wrong tone.

No need to quiz the wife now

I know little about this and Elon Musk. Why would Elon Musk have a good or bad reputation and what is the goal of this operation? And finally what is the point of sending the Tesla into space too?

Citroen Xantia estate TDi! Is definitely NOT a good all round car. Is it french? Oui! Is it merde? Oui! Does it breakdown more than James Brown in concert? Oui! A boot that's big enough to fill with all the needs of a breakdown? it's only redeeming feature (perhaps) Sac le blur!! Oui! Stodgy steering? Bien sur! Does it have a red light on the dash that says "STOP!!" Naturally! Gear changes like a combine harvester? Oui! Sluggish engine that has the enthusiasm and vim and vigor of a dead horse? Hor hor hor! (french laughing) Oui!! Suspension that continues to bounce once parked until you get up the next morning? Jador!! Brakes that respond worse than opening the door and slamming your Nike on the road? That's another resounding oui!! As good looking as Whoopie Goldberg after 10 rounds with Mike Tyson? You bet your french stinking cheesy arse it is, Oui! in conclusion, would i rather be dragged to work by my nut-sack tied to the back of my wife's car on a set of roller-sKates? FFS OUI!! feel much better now.

The wife lived in japan for 14 years, i'll grab her ear!

Wow! i think i have just wet my pants. That is the most stunning car i have seen in a long time. I'd definitely have one if i could afford it. Wouldn't even bother with a test drive. i want one.

ooooo i dunno. 0 - 62 in 5 seconds out of the box is not bad i think for a 25+ year old car. I'm sure Ekona is going to rear his head and rant about how unnecessary 0-62 times are. Nevertheless, with bit of poking and modding they can be a real missile. But back to the FK8!!

Oh dear, this happens all too often. I hope you can get a decent image of the offender, number plate or what not.

That is VERY cool!!

So many people are allergic mundane things these days. can't remember it being this rife when i was younger. What did people do in the 80s? Just crawl into a corner and die quietly? I put it down to the mass of chemicals they put in food these days such as bread, to make it last longer. I think in the grand scheme of things it's a relatively new format for prolonging the shelf life of normal food stuffs. Something our bodies didn't grow up with originally.

Yeah! In a real world situation i doubt it's really usable power, unless you live in Saudi Arabia where you can drive more or less however you like.

Not sure if this is a re-post but came across this by chance. To me the design and name is a clear rip off from the early Ridge racer games. Design is Italian, engine is American. There are other videos that display/showcase the car better on Youtube if interested.

Best hyper hatch...... Pulsar GTI-R not biased or anything

I do like Honda, they make excellent cars no doubt. I don't dislike the FK8, i'm just undecided about how it looks.
