It’s actually insane that the fastest lap in Formula 1 history was set by Max at Monza 2025, with an average speed of 264.682 km/h, which earned him pole position. What a performance

So basically, Mark Higgins has held the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy record since 2016. He completed the 60-kilometer race in 17 minutes and 35 seconds, at an average speed of 207 km/h. It must be said that he was well helped by his Subaru, prepared by Prodrive. It develops 570 horsepower with its 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. It even has an active aero system. He had to do it for us to realize that it was possible

16 years ago today Obamacare was signed into law with the promise by Barack Obama that it would save the average family $2,500 a year! As predicted by conservatives at the time that turned out to be one of the biggest lies in the history of politics in America!

France invented two things that made history: The strike, and the Renault Espace F1. In 1994, Renault decided that the best way to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Renault Espace was to put an 800 horsepower engine derived directly from F1 in it. The result? A Renault Espace equipped with a Williams V10 engine capable of reaching 200 km/h in 7 seconds and taking its four occupants to the nearest demonstration at a top speed of 312 km/h.

I don’t expect the average person to know that this weapon isn’t new. At least 16 years ago the military tested the Vehicle-Mounted Active Denial System (V-MADS). It was in development at least a decade longer. At the time, it seems like nothing more than a parlor trick. Remember what cell phones were like 25 years ago? Of course this weapons technology would be be scaled down to fit in a backpack and be used by tier 1 operators.

Collins: The WH put up a website that said you refused to act said it was an act of cowardice and sabotage. Would you care to respond? Pence: Well, not particularly. The first time he called me, that was five years ago yesterday, I didn't have time for it then, and I don't have time for it now. I think it's very offensive that they used taxpayer dollars to blame the police for what happened on January 6th.

BREAKING 🔥🇺🇦 Ukraine Lyviv Oblast Ukraine confirms that the missile that hit the Lviv region flew at a speed of about 13,000 km/h along a ballistic trajectory. It makes it clear that an Oreshnik IRBM with MIRV technology was used in the attack. It’s the second time an ICBM or IRBM is used in war After the Russian Oreshnik IRBM strike, local media report that there is “almost no gas” in Lviv Oblast. Earlier reports indicated that the Oreshnik hit a strategic underground gas storage facility in the city of Stryi, Lviv region. The facility is located 66 km from Lviv and 75 km from the Polish border. Several volleys of MIRV strikes can be seen in the video. The fact that it happened close to the Polish border is a Russian message for all of Europe. Expert opinion : Oreshnik ICBM is unstoppable since it enters into from space to atmosphere with a speed of Mach 10. Neither Europe nor America has such an anti air defence to stop it. Under normal circumstances it carries nuclear warheads that can erase any European city from map and sends back to stone age. Last night, there was a clear sign that Russia is not joking.

Dashcam car was driving at around 115 km/h on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway when suddenly, a reckless driver crossed the median through an unauthorized opening and appeared right in front of it. Thankfully, the dashcam driver managed to control the car in time otherwise, the situation could have turned disastrous. #driveresponsibly

The 525e was designed at a time when power was no longer the only thing that mattered. The e stands for eta, the Greek letter used in thermodynamics to denote efficiency. BMW took the M20 2.0L petrol engine, stroked it to 2.7L, and optimised it not for peak power but for maximum torque at the lowest possible RPM. The result was 125 PS, almost identical to the 520i alongside it, but with 240 Nm available from just 3,250 RPM, which was more low-end torque than even the turbocharged 524td diesel at the time. 0-100 km/h in around 11 seconds is honest about what it is. What those numbers don't tell you is that the 525e pulls from 1,500 RPM, cruises at motorway speeds without working, and does it all with the inherent smoothness of a naturally aspirated inline-six that simply cannot be replicated by a diesel or a four-cylinder. Fuel consumption ended up being somewhere around 8 to 9 L/100 km and with a 70 L fuel tank the car could even do 1000 km trips. BMW sold it with a very long final drive ratio specifically to keep revs low at speed. It was designed for people who drove and appreciated the journey rather than the sprint. A slow BMW that is genuinely enjoyable, in the most honest way a BMW can be.

Why Does Indonesia Have a 350 km/h Fast Train While Australia Still Struggles With Average-Speed Rail? By Jamie McIntyre, Political Commentator, Australian National Review One of the biggest surprises of my recent visit to Indonesia wasn’t the new capital city of Nusantara or Jakarta’s relentless pace. It was boarding the Whoosh high-speed train between Jakarta and Bandung. The experience was extraordinary. In just around 30 minutes, we travelled between two major cities at speeds reaching approximately 350 km/h. The journey was smooth, quiet and every bit as impressive as the high-speed rail systems I’ve experienced elsewhere in Asia. What struck me wasn’t simply Indonesia’s achievement. It was Australia’s failure. Indonesia is still commonly described as a developing nation, yet it has managed to build one of Southeast Asia’s most advanced transport systems while Australia, one of the wealthiest countries in the world on a per capita basis, still cannot deliver even ordinary passenger rail between many of its major population centres. Perhaps before politicians start talking about futuristic high-speed rail, Australia should first learn how to build an average-speed train. Take the Brisbane to Gold Coast corridor. The two cities are only around 70 kilometres apart. An ordinary modern passenger train travelling at about 120 km/h could complete much of that journey in around 30 to 40 minutes, transforming daily commuting for hundreds of thousands of people. Instead, commuters often spend 70 to 90 minutes on today’s rail services, and considerably longer if travelling by car during peak-hour gridlock. That isn’t simply inconvenient. It is an enormous drag on productivity, quality of life and economic growth. Every extra hour spent sitting in traffic is an hour not spent with family, running a business or contributing to the economy. Meanwhile, Indonesia has leapfrogged into the future. The country’s Whoosh high-speed railway demonstrates what can be achieved when governments decide that modern infrastructure is an investment rather than merely another political announcement. Australia has spent decades discussing high-speed rail. We’ve commissioned study after study, produced glossy reports and made election promises. Yet little changes. Australians deserve to ask an uncomfortable question. How can Indonesia build a 350 km/h railway while Australia still struggles to provide reliable, average-speed rail between nearby cities? Infrastructure should not be viewed through a political lens. It should be viewed through an economic one. -Faster transport means higher productivity. -It expands labour markets. -It reduces congestion. -It increases property values around transport hubs. -It attracts investment. -It improves tourism. Most importantly, it gives people back something increasingly valuable: time. Australia has the engineering expertise. It has the financial capacity. What appears to be missing is the political will. Watching Indonesia’s sleek high-speed train glide effortlessly across Java was inspiring. It also served as a reminder that Australia’s infrastructure ambitions have become far too modest. Perhaps it’s time to stop debating whether Australia can build world-class rail and instead start asking why nations with fewer resources are already doing it. Until then, Australians will continue watching other countries race ahead while we remain stuck in traffic.

2 yrs ago I was coaching the game that would win us a trip to the State Championship. Today I live 4 hrs away, at a new job, a father of 2, and more or less a "coaching consultant". Life can take you away from the game. And that's ok. Just appreciate the time you have with it.
