The comical thing about all this promotion of electric vehicles is, on the news this morning, they were talking about the renewable electrical supply needs to be beefed up before the predicted time from of 2030 (or thee abouts) because of coal fired powered stations going offline sooner than predicted

Won't mention about the rationing NSW is talking about with the extreme heat going on

So how's that going to work with all the electric vehicles.....

Classic case of one department spruking one thing and the other having no bloody idea
everyone switch to electricity and EV's, but its a hot day so when u get home dont charge your car or do your laundry or dishes or use pool pumps cos the grid cant handle it, and we are only a few weeks into summer, this is 2023 and our country has some of the most coal, gas, uranium in the world yet we cant reliably 100% power the nation

for anyone that didnt already see this video @Immortality showed it a few months back i think it was, now all the complaints about nuclear and waste and this was back in the 1960's, imagen where we could be now if this technology kept going and it will shut up all the greens arguments and power us for thousands of years

............. and a cryptic personalised number plate .................. such as V82NV ?;)
I do cryptic crosswords long as they are not to hard. To my shame it took me about 2 seconds to figure that one out. Old age for you.

How about.
How much extra HP will my engine produce if I paint my engine covers red?
Very hard question to answer seeing as how there are so many shades of red. As with the brakes Brembo red would possibly be the best At least 10 rw of course.

About 20 years ago, those plates ...... ??? 2NV ........ used to be on every 2 litre Doof Doof shitbox, with a For Sale Ph 0412 345 ??? on the back window for the chicky babes to ring for a hot date.
Now, all those drivers would be tradies with 4WD soot blowing utes., with ankle biters strapped in the back seat..

Why even have brakes?
They only slow you down.
Less Brakes, Less Friction, Less Going Slow.
Clearly you can get places Faster....

*Please note, this is only Sarcasm.
Also there is a Brand in Cycling called "FSA" or "Full Speed Ahead" which Ironically make Brakes....
