Thanks.

And also, thanks to MrChips for another great game. I thought I was permanently mid-pack, with a mix of sheep and ace answers. This time just had some big point sheepers that worked out for me. I can't wait to see the metrics for this time.

I stand by my lone wolfs (wolves?) and want to know more about the following:

CT gave links for everything else, but doogle's story was related to the 88 civic they bought and stuffed a giant turbo into. I can't find the actual thread for the car in the search, just a post in the Post your own ride thread and a dyno session when the car was making ~500hp

(Also featuring the best numberplate :D)

Question 17: In the 80s and 90s, we saw the Japanese car industry come to the forefront; in the 90s/00s it was the Koreans, and in the 2010s it’s looking like it’s China. Which, if any, country’s car industry will rise, or rise again, in the 2020s and 30s?

heffray posted:

Scoring the answers I sent, instead of the random blend of other answers with "heffray" on them: big sheep answers on a few of these were huge, and my big misses were on questions that didn't result in a lot of agreement:

I see what happened here, I somehow copied someone else's answers where yours should be; entirely my fault and I'm sorry about that. It boosts your score quite a bit too, as you indicated, but not quite enough to win.
