Darchangel posted:Love people who put on their signal *as they merge into you.* I posted in the Miata thread, but can we do a tiny derail of horn chat? Are Hella Supertones still the loud horn to get for tiny cars, or is there something better? I don't quite understand how the loud train horns work-- do these guys have separate air compressors that they've installed somewhere?

Its a real nice place. A few Donkeys as well. The cattle will stick their heads in open car windows to try and find food since they expect people to feed them.

MetaJew posted:I posted in the Miata thread, but can we do a tiny derail of horn chat? Yeah, the train horns take a lot of air and space. I like the Wolo "Bad Boy" self-contained air horns ($40 @ Harbor Freight) for large volume in a small... well, volume, or a straight-up set of air horns if you have a little more space. As far as I know, the Hellas are still excellent as well, though I prefer the tone of a horned horn.

For horn chat, there's always the portable option (although these are truck horns, not train horns):

So much of it is in the audio, I think.

The Goodwood touring car races with the American muscle along with Capris and the like are just great, as are the Mini races. Problem is it gives me impure thoughts, like "Rover SD1 project".

Problem with any 80s British Leyland product projects is finding one. We are talking about a company that instead of enlarging a tunnel between assembly and paint when cars got too big to fit through just loaded them up onto a transporter and drove them around the corner in the rain to be painted.

What only makes that worse is being in NZ where they were much rarer to start with. I can find precisely one for sale right now, and it's probably too nice to chop up, not to mention expensive. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/rover/other/listing/3542934822

Just sad that the cost cutting made it mechanically plain compared to its competitors, and it was being built by the worst period of BL's time.

Not sure how I feel about that specific one but if you ask anyone who was a kid at the time to draw a rad car from the 80s that's pretty much what it's going to be shaped like.

That car was a excellent design for it's time and sounded great with the V8, bought down by comically awful build quality and absolutely crippling cost cutting garbage. A lot of Britsh cars of the time were utter crap from breakfast to rear end in a top hat but the SD1 in actual competent hands would have been just amazing.

That'd be like €115,000 just in fuel assuming current prices and it actually got close to 12.6l/100km (which is in my experience somewhat unlikely)
