“World record for the BUGATTI Chiron: the 1,500 PS super car has accelerated from a standing start to 400 km/h (249 mph) and braked back to a standstill in just 42 seconds (41.96).

The Chiron completed the manoeuvre in a distance of only 3.112 kilometres. This underscores the supercarâs unique position in the extreme performance range. The world record was set by Juan Pablo Montoya, winner of the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix, two-time winner of the Indy 500 and three-time winner of the 24 hours of Daytona.

“Last round, my efforts to recreate the fabled McDonald’s Szechuan Sauce were wild, flailing shots in the dark, pathetic and meager attempts to recreate a long-lost condiment out of scanty information and back-alley sources. But now, thanks to a very kind man named David Wasman, I have procured a sample of the genuine article. Follow along this week as we make a rendition of Szechuan Sauce near-identical to the Mulan-inspired goop from 1998. And make some wannabe Chicken McNuggets while we’re at it.”..(Read…)
Planes, trains, and automobiles. Just a few of the places you can take your Burke 20 bike! It’s the latest titanium folding bike by Seattle Cycles and it folds down so flat you can stick it in a suitcase. Better yet, without any tools.
