I'm refusion to answer on the grounds it may incinerate me. Sure, I'm being a bit critical, mass as I wanted to be positive but you nuclearly that it would end up this way.

If the string is just a theory what kind of hook would you use?

Instead of worms do they use a newt on the end of the hook?

It's 6hp LESS than mine at the crank. The HP numbers the auto manufacturers provide are the results of running the engine on an ENGINE dyno (crank HP). Subtract %15 from the numbers they brag about to account for parasitic drivetrain loss, and you get 595HP at the rear wheels. I've only ever measured mine on a chassis dyno, and it came out to 600hp at the wheels.
Keep in mind that my car's engine wasn't built to take advantage of forced induction (I would need to lower the compression from it's current 10.5:1 to no more than 9:1), and that would cost about $3k to do. If I were to do it, I could add another 4-5 pounsds of boost, which would add about 200hp at the crank, which would result in about 685 at the wheels.
It sounds like it's pretty impressive, so it's all good. 
For the record, I think the 2015-20 GT350 is an all-around better car for the street than the GT500 is. To be honest, I wish I had spent my money on a GT350 instead of building my car. It would have cost half as much.

But admit it - it would have been much less fun.

Well there's always your next car I suppose.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Well... yeah... but it's out of a sense of self-preservation that I don't cite that as a perk to SWMBO.

Well, and then there's the Tesla[^]. They currently make 3 models. I think any of the 3 would be a good choice.

Hi! I'm trying to figure out how to generate PS3 controller button-press events from my Mac running OS X.
My motivation is that every once in a while I come across a PS3 game that has a certain part of the game requiring a LOT of repetitive button pressing. So, I was thinking maybe I could make some code that would generate the required button presses, rather than having to press the X button too many times manually.
Does anyone know of any site or resource that has documentation for this kind of thing? Thanks in advance!

Chillax! He didn't ask a programming question. He asked for suggestions on where to find some documentation.

I'd say it's a "programming question" given he joined today, and that's his first contribution to the site.

Hate to break this to you...but Maunder has been using a Mac for the best part of a decade or maybe more.

To be fair, Chris considers the Mac to be the best machine to run Windows on, along with Visual Studio.
I think that if he could find a great machine from someone else that had the power, resolution, ports, and was as light, he might go for it.

I've been chewed out a few times myself because I apparently don't know where to draw the line, and I've been here since 2001. What's acceptable or not is still not clear to me.
