  1. India is very well known for Incidents like this . VERY Dangerous Place .
    937
  2. You should look up an OLD clip of a TGV setting an outright World Record . About 500 and something km/h from memory .
    669
  3. As a Former Serviceman myself , I find this type of FAKE Witch-hunt deplorable . Once the dust settles on THIS case , there needs to be another........ And , Thank You for your Service Heston , at the Highest Level that it can be given at .

  4. When I was a Kid , it used to be between 35 and 40 ALL SUMMER , with the odd 45 thrown in .

  5. Pretty well the Exact same problems in ANY engine . Piston Rings and Periphery Seals live in that same , Low lubrication , High Scuff environment that the Vanes would be dealing with , so SIMILAR SOLUTIONS . Micro porosity in the Chamber wall to retain an Oil film and Correct choice of Materials for the Chamber surface and Vanes . The centrifugal forces in the Rotor would provide sufficient Oil pressure to deal with peripheral oiling without the need for an Oil Pump . Rotor just needs Roller Bearings and LP oil supply . Just simply provide small gallery ways through the Rotor assembly that lead to the Vanes . Only need to be quite tiny And a tiny amount of Chamber Bleed would not really matter considering the Cycles adjacent to each . Another Engineer speaking here .

  6.  @andrew8168 . They don't NEED " Permission " . You're dumb if you think they do . Yes , Turkey is a NATO Member . They are also a Sovereign Nation unto themself .
    81
  7. As an Australian I agree 100 fucking % with President Zelensky as well . Well said Sir .
    79
  8. That was an EXCELLENT Monologue Artem . Great Job , Sir .
    79
  9. That was quite likely a Huge Transformer . A 200 + tonne Solid Block of Iron and Copper . And then there's the weight of the Transport Dolly as well .
    57
  10. The Result of 50+ years of ignoring Power Infrastructure . State And Federal Level and BOTH Parties .
    54
  11.  @kylefrisby  . Russia Bot ? Ukraine don't intend to go to Moscow . Y E T . Russian media would have their people believe that this fighting is at the Gates of Kyiv . 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    49
  12. I tend to think her circumstances have some truth . Doesn't forgive the Murders though .
    45
  13. With all the Shit on the back , the Two-Post lift might not have lifted it .
    42
  14. Well , I , for one , have HUGE " Buyers Remorse " for actually voting for Anthony Albanese and his Mob . Won't be happening again . In fact a BIG swing towards One Nation , to wake BOTH the Major Parties up , is a Great Idea . One Nation can't win , but , a Backlash in BOTH Houses is definitely needed and Warranted .
    42
  15. They ARE however , taught English from VERY early , so in general speak English extremely well .
    39
  16. Truck Driving , here in Australia , actually has no Official Trade Curriculum . Something I believe should have been addressed DECADES ago . It would go a LONG way in getting the " Cowboys " off the Roads . And the TWU is Transport Workers Union Australia , BTW .
    36
  17. Way less than 1% . Americans tend to think the Entire World revolves about them .
    36
  18.  @OleDiaBole  . You still can't SPELL , Sergei . Lend/Lease SAVED Russia . They were losing until then .
    36

    26
  25. The Ruble is currently of Less Value than the Paper it's printed on .
    25
  26. Nuclear makes the best sense . No doubt of that . We have a HUGE Country , with quite a lot of vacant land , away from major populations AND we are really quite Seismically/Tectonically stable .
    25
  27. Nuclear is a " Bit Pricey " to build , but over Lifetime of the Plant works out W A Y cheaper . I have been a believer in us using Nuclear Energy for a couple of Decades now . There's nothing wrong with HAVING solar and wind supplementary power , but you CANNOT run an Economy SOLELY off it . And I think , if you look closer , that Iceland uses Geothermal Power . A convenient omission .
    25
  28. Fun Fact : Kyiv is a FAR older City than Moscow . Kyiv was a Regional Capital when Moscow was still a Tiny Village .
    25
  29.  @ian9toes  . You're Kidding . Right ? Roller Bearings are used in MANY Engines , as Mains , Big-ends and Small-ends . Just Dumb .
    24
  30.  @Xover112  . Russia did WORSE in Afghanistan . Actually DID get thrown out . America simply lost the will to continue . Didn't win but didn't lose either .
    22
  31. All the Islands that show on the GOOGLE Map , are the Original Delta . Yes , it will drain , some , but it will also stay Very Wet .
    22
  32. Ex Military myself . I thought exactly that about the BIG Radar . No relevance to Ukraines War , but definitely a Big Possiblity of causing a " Hipshot " reaction , from the reactionary Ruskis .
    22
  33. All Russia needs to do is LEAVE THEIR NEIGHBOURS BACKYARD . No war then .
    21
  34. Putin , Lavyrov and Peskov . The Unholy Trinity..........................
    21
  35.  @axeman2638 . As was pointed out , ALL engines are subject to uneven heating . You saw that part , right ? Basically , all engine designs are flawed in some way . Compromises everywhere . But perseverance has got them working well .
    20
  36. The Blank spot on the Map is most likely a Military Area . We have a few scattered around . Australia is one of the " Five Eyes " Countries .
    20
  37. This is what happens when you allow Cults and Lobby Groups to hijack Infrastructure problems . Rather than set a Brief " This is the Problem . Attempt a Rational Solution " and present said Brief to the ENGINEERS .
    20
  38.  @18KaratRunOfBadLuck . Czechia .

    19
  42. Very MUCH time for the U.S. to " WAKE UP ! ! " . And Scholz Too .
    19
  43.  @michaelallen2501  . Initiating a Spark across a Gap isn't about Amperage . 100.000 Volts at 1 milliamp will jump . 100.000 Amps at 1 millivolt will not . And too much Amperage would Melt the Sparkplugs instantly , rendering them inoperative .
    18
  44.  @davidlamont5793 . Trump will Lose . So will Putin . So you " Cope " away there all you like Nikita .
    18
  45. Yeah , exactly ! He isn't trying to " Remember WHICH lie covers the Question " . A CLEAN Narrative .
    18
  46.  @Flat_Earth_Sophia  . What ? On that Flat Earth of yours ? You know , that Fictional Place your Mentality lives in .
    17
  47. Hell No . THAT is absolutely a KIWI Accent . Oh , and my guess is that , that is a Legit Ad . Kiwi's do talk like that . But they are ALSO aware of the Comical side of their Native Accent .
    17
  48. " But the Flights already booked . We'll lose our deposit.........................................." . Yeah , he's a complete Fool .

    14
  56.  @anthonyegan59  . Who are you asking ? Jesus ?
    14
  57. Hey Ian , there's an Aussie Movie , starring Eric Bana , called " The Beast " . It's about a Ford Build along the same lines as this Thing here . " 600 horsepower on Leaf Springs ? You're Mad...."
    14
  58. What's Biden , or the U.S. in general , got to do with the Syria " war " ?
    14

  64.  @TantorNa . Nice Fake Account , Bru .
    13
  65. How about YOU show some respect . Not every participant in this Annual Event is a " Silver-Tail " . Your statement is foolish .
    13
  66.  @Bigrignohio  . Speak about your OWN schedule , by all means , but DO NOT insist that the two are not interrelated . A SHORTAGE of Power is , and always WILL BE , a shortage of power . Fun Fact : An EV uses MUCH more power than an AC system .
    13
  67. Terribly Sad . Rest in Peace Bianca . I hope they FIND the Guilty Agent here .

  70.  @MacedonianChristian , Yeah ? Sure thing , Igor . There's nothing Macedonian OR Christian about you .
    13
  71. I know this is a Relative , Artem , but sorry , He is a Hypocrite . He ran , for which I don't blame him in the least , but NOW he wants to carry on like that . Someone needs to call him out on it .
    13
  72. Who in Gods name thought using a Cork Gasket was a good idea ? Honestly I can't remember the last time I saw one , even on a Tappet Cover .
    13
  73. Hey , Paul , I would like to see a Breakdown of : Sent Aid as a percentage of GDP : Two things here ! All those European Countries are SOVEREIGN Nations , with their Own " Stuff " to deal with internally and Secondly , some of them , like Latvia , are TINY PLACES . Your B/S is starting to Annoy me Paul . Partisanship is acceptable . Criticising others for doing RELATIVELY MORE , IS NOT ! A-hat . You get a DOWN VOTE today .
    13
  74.  @BionicBurke  . Umm , the Vanes do Not necessarily need to be straight out at 90 degrees . Think on that . The Graphic was a Infographic on the Concept . NOT a Fucking Blueprint .
    12
  75. Should have said to them , " You took him away , so YOU bring him back . Or take him to the Hospital to get his Foot Examined . Choice is yours , Officer " .
    12
  76. Air -Cooled Normally Aspirated . That " Blower " scream is actually the Cooling Fan . Yes everything about it is L O U D . And Tatra Chassis' are the most interesting and well executed Modular Drive Units EVER . By anyone .
    12
  77. " Falling Debris " ........ apparently.........🤣🤣
    12
  78.  @calispieter . Putin is no Giant either , in ANY metric . World's worst case of " Short Man Syndrome " .

    12
  84. If it was THAT diluted I think the Engine would seize .
    12
  85. Over here in Australia there are quite a few Unimogs around as Expeditionary/Apocalypse Vehicles , for someone with a bit of Money . There is even a Specialist Engineering Firm called Unidan that can build virtually anything onto a UniMog chassis . Our Army uses them so they are AVAILABLE , usually in Good condition and Very well maintained and reasonable Mileage too .
    11
  86.  @lancehanrahan562  . Geckos are Harmless . And Cute .

    11
  88.  @ashleyflint3501 . Fully agree . I will be voting that way this time around .
    11
  89. Oh , Goody . Another opportunity for the U.S. to prove themselves an Unreliable " Partner " . In actuality , Hpefully this gets Congresses Heads out of their Arses . ENOUGH WITH THE COMPLACENT Home Front Politicking .
    11
  90. Terrain Hugging has been used during and since WW2 . Standard tactic for DeHavilland Mosquitos and Even LANCASTERS on a couple of jobs . Harpoon Missiles fly even lower .
    11
  91. To what purpose ? We just watched a Second Hand report . You think that Fire-Team is just waiting there ? Dumb . They might use THAT particular location again in a month .
    11
  92. Which seems quite Apt , when talking about Russia..................
    11
  93. Yeah . Politicians everywhere do that one . " Ignore the Problem and it will Go Away or Fix Itself " .
    11
  94.  @dancleary4101 . That's an irrelevant statement in these circumstances . RACE had nothing to do with it...............

  98.  @abdulimraan2706  . The Quote isn't Propaganda . It is a Literary Quote .
    10
  99.  @JOptional-m1w . That " Waste Material " can actually be used in a different design of Reactor to create MORE energy .
    10
  100. Life within " The Workers Paradise "....................... Really sad , this .
    10
  101. Yeah , a 1000 acre , open air museum , that should rightfully be a Wheat Field to Feed people with . Oh Wait ! That's where they came from..................
    10
  102.  @spudwesth . Kyiv was NEVER Russian . Just misappropriated for a while . Fun Fact : Kyiv was a Major European City back when Moskva was a Sleepy Hamlet beside a River .

    9
  106.  @makantahi3731  . Actually TOTALLY correct .
    9
  107. I think that little Metal Ball thingy on the Tap @5:56 was a Water-Hammer suppressor . Diaphragm and Some Air pressure , as a Hydrostatic Damper . The Squiggly Lines in the Field just looked like someone , probably a Kid , had been tooling around in the area on a Minibike . The Best routes . The Red Poles in the Highway divider are near the " Light-horse Interchange " on the M4 Sydney . The represent the Soldiers of " The Light Brigade " . And finally , the last Item , the Stone Egg looked like something known as a Thunder-Egg . An Opal related Natural formation .

  111. So much for the idea of a " Second Kaliningrad "............... Come on Romania , how about offering to Help them get rid of that Rot on their Eastern Border .
    9
  112. AH yes ! Back to Alexander Haig days...............
    9
  113.  @mattsmith-ri3lp  . The " Western Assistance " is not the Latest and Greatest . Quite the contrary . It is " Out of Date " stock just being sent to Ukraine for " Decommisioning " . This helps Ukraine and Saves the Allies the Disposal Costs .
    9
  114.  @mattolivier1835 . Yeah ? Maybe so . BUT the U.S. has got stuff they can Sell , on an ONGOING basis .
    9

  125. These weren't Contractors . This was the DoD's Very Own F-up .
    8
  126.  @johnpjones1775  So , is it 1942 now ? Or 196x ? No ? Your point is Irrelevant in Modern Navies . They are a Highly Technical thing these days . Every Sailor does do Weapon Familiarisation and Limited Range time with a Rifle and a Sidearm , but that does NOT qualify them as " Infantry " . Former Australian Navy speaking here .
    8
  127. That IL - 22's tail looked like Swiss Cheese . And there were reports of Wounded onboard , which would indicate damage further forward too . Good chance it may not fly again either , as we known the IL -76 is a Submarine now , forever on patrol .
    8
  128.  @RamblingRodeo  . Yeah , well Unlike Russia , they care about keeping their People in the Field Alive .

  136.  @OG-BIG-SHEPHERD.  Why so many L I N E S Wanker ?
    7
  137. There are THREE categories of B-Double . 19 metre , 25 metre and 26 metre . 19 metre tend to be Fuel Trucks . Same length as a Maximum length Single , but Well Heavier . 55 T . 25 metre are 34 pallet Cab-over combos .62.5 T . 26 metre are 32 pallet Bonneted trucks , 62.5 T .

  138. This is one of the BEST Advertising " Mini-Series " EVER . You gotta look up the " Meerkats " as well .

  139.  @khamsinfu1759 . Will I be able to find YOU there . I am a bit out of practice at " Wet Work " so I could probably do with the exercise..........

    7
  143.  @ChromecastM8 . RUBBISH ! BALDERDASH ! Wake Up .
    7
  144.  @JOptional-m1w  . I an quite serious . There is already a Type of reactor , in use , that uses the depleted " Waste Fuel " from a regular Reactor , as its Heat source . The waste from THAT reactor can go directly back to the " Fresh Fuel " smelting Process . These are Technologies in use RIGHT NOW . By all means , continue developing Solar , but be aware that it can never be suitable for Base-Load Power supply . Solar only " produces " for half the day AT BEST . Peak Output window is actually only 3 hours long .
    7
  145. So what's the bet Folks . When they check the VIN plate on that " Stolen " Corolla , it's from Yagoona , Punchbowl or Auburn .
    7
  146. What makes you think the U.S. , along with others too I'm sure , has not developed Anti Ballistic Missile defense systems ? All that's happened is they have Not announced having done so .
    7
  147.  @aj9969  . It's the Russians that have lost 500K , Troll .

  148. I feel the Same about " Wholly made in Australia " .
    7
  149. Prigozhian is a Gangster . Undoubtedly . BUT , I worked for a Gangster some Years ago . Didn't realise it at first , but worked it out . He was ACTUALLY A GREAT BOSS . They usually are . Got where they are by GETTING their hands dirty along the way . That Ivory Tower was Built by him . Not presented on a Platter after a Rigged Election . Love him or Hate him , you have to RESPECT Yevgeney Prigozhian . A " Real Deal " guy . Yes TROLLING the SHIT out of Shogui's Shitfight . Russia and their " Political Intrigue " bullshit , are their OWN WORST ENEMIES .
    7
  150.  @Blueberryredbull . Well now . THERE is a Dumb uninformed statement if EVER there was one .
    7
  151. That'll be Next....................

    7
  156.  @tigerlancer . For reasonably Good Rocket Tech .
    7
  157. Yeah , the resemblance is astonishing .
    7
  158.  @sepoy5346  The fact that " as You Claim " you drive on those Roads " All The Time " , doesn't necessarily mean you're ANY GOOD AT IT............... A thirty second Google Search told me that Trucks ARE INDEED allowed to Overtake Slower Traffic ON INDIAN EXPRESSWAYS . So you were talking Crap right from the Start . And MY point is valid . You don't understand the Rules .
    6
  159.  @sepoy5346 . I very much think you are LIKELY to be mistaken . Simply not understanding the Regulations .

  160. The Focke-Wulf 190 was the Raise-the-Stakes Plane for the Luftwaffe . Set everyone else on their Heels for a while . Very Small and Tough . Very Agile and Well Armed . And Very Very Fast . At ALL altitudes .
    6
  161. Yes , the SCANIA V-8s do sound really good . Those were all running the Newer 16 litre Engine . IMO the Old 14 litre Bent 8 sounded even better .

  164. John Clarke , Rest In Peace , was totally Original and Unique . He had the Delivery of a Horse Race-Caller and , as heard here , could come up with a Vocabulary for a series of Sketches . Mostly REAL words just taken WAY out of Context OR original meaning . A Genius . Smarter than any 10 people you know .

  165.  @ChristyBermingham  . First : I live in a Democratic Country , where I am permitted to express my views HONESTLY . And , Secondly : I am a Premium Subscriber , so withdrawing Service could EASILY be construed as Breach of Contract . However , thanks for your input .

  182. Well this is a little mysterious so far . Car went in for a Cooling related problem and got a Radiator . Immediate Overheat again . Now Ray has it . I suspect the previous shop was too quick to sign off on the Job . They too , should have noticed the Purging problem . Some Engines can be difficult to " Burp " and there are sometimes bleeder valves fitted to assist that . I suspect a Warped Head .

Get THAT organised and " Tuners " will come along later .

Anyways , Solar is effective for Off-Grid Dwellings and supplemental on individual Houses . Also good for RV's and also 4WD Over-landers . HOWEVER , in Each Case there , an Auxiliary Generator of some kind IS required to keep things on an even Keel . Your Typical " Off Grid " setup is : Solar panel covered Roof , A Windmill , A Water wheel in the Creek nearby and , of course , a Battery Bank to even things out , but ALSO a Diesel/Petrol Generator for those times when everything Else has failed for whatever reason . And RV's/4WD's have an Alternator on the Engine , because that's just the way they come . Yes ? Get it out of your Head that Solar and Wind will EVER be viable as the ONLY source of electric Power .

  234.  @Bryan-Hensley  . Rotary VALVES are completely different . The Vanes could perhaps be held in place using an Oiling system similar to a Hydraulic Lifter or Oil fed Cam-chain Tensioner but use an internal Bleed-back into the Rotor . Chrome Piston Rings running in Iron Bores last a LONG time , and Oiling is minimal . And also , the ROTOR being far larger , will expand MORE than the Vanes . They aren't going to bind at High Temps . More likely to get Tight when COLD . Whole thing just needs Careful engineering .

  297.  @ScottJohnson-h3k  . Well , Sudzha happens to have the Valve Station for Russia's Gas Exports to anywhere South . That's a pretty STRONG Tactical position .

  302.  @pontiacg445  . I'm actually from an Engineering background , Pal . Making a Round , Parallel Hole is actually much harder than you seem to know . And also , how is discussing Heat irrelevant when discussing any type of Heat Engine ? You are clearly just an Argumentative Troll and you can just Go Away now I reckon .
    3
  303.  @pontiacg445  . The Engineering hurdles that had to be solved to actually Make the Internal Combustion Reciprocating Engine truly " Viable " , as you put it , were NOT in anyway inconsequential . And what I talked about was COMPLETELY Relevant .
    3
  304.  @pontiacg445  . Hmmm . Inconsequential you say....... So what is so " Inconsequential " about the Sheer Inefficiency of a Four Stroke Reciprocating Engine . SO much wasted movement and horrible Heat Rejection/Wastage . Inconsequential ? Hell NO . I mean , seriously , what is the purpose of a HEAT ENGINE that needs boundary cooling so as not to explode ? The Current Pinnacle of Heat Engine is the Turbo Fan Gas Turbine , which does not need a cooling system , and is Mechanically HIGHLY efficient but does have poor Thermal efficiency AND a very limited operating speed . The expanded operating range is exactly WHY they PERSEVERED with the Internal Combustion Reciprocating Engine , and ENGINEERED around many of its shortcomings . Next time , Think prior to Speak please .
    3
  305. It's fascinating stuff isn't it . Geometry . Glad you FINISHED on the point , that the Slower initial Piston speed (dwell time) on downstrokes , allows for significantly better Power harnessing from combustion as well as the reduced Thrust Surface pressure/friction . I think that Dodge/Chrysler did the same with the " Leaning Tower of Power " engines . The venerable 215/225 slant sixes . Already a long stoke design . And being In-Line sixes , still had pretty good balance once Offset . EXCELLENT Technical Video as usual Young Sir .👍👏.
    3
  306. As always an Excellent Explanation . Yes , that is a simple Turbojet . Like the Mighty Tumansky's that powered the Mig-25 to Mach 3.2 . 🤣. Or the J-58's of the SR-71 . Also Turbojets . The Modern Twin Shaft Turbofan is a different " Animal " entirely . Like the difference between a Flathead and DOHC 4valve . Yes , Gas Turbines are VERY Thirsty . They only have ONE , PARTICULAR speed where Fuel/Work ratio is ideal . Do those next please . Then explain how a " Free Power Turbine " works for Ship propulsion or Power Generation for Electrical Supply . Gas Turbines make VERY big power for something so compact , BUT , they are best at Constant Speed running . Great Video , as usual . You are REALLY good at explaining things for the Layman .
    3
  307.  @EdBoi18  . i am 99% sure this would work . Most of the Engineering challenges are already solved . This only needs Low Oil Pressure . Roller Bearings on the Rotor and a slight oil feed through the Rotor under the Vanes . Centrifugal Force would provide MOST of the Sealing Pressure . Tangential Vanes , of course . Deeply set in the Rotor .
    3
  308.  @wayneperryman4146  . There are no " Valves " . There are Two Ports . One IN the other OUT . Two-stroke engine Piston rings don't snag on the Exhaust or Transfer ports . Why ? Because there is a slight Chamfer on the edge of the Port . That was a " No Idea " question .
    3
  309.  @MJBAKANemoStrong  . The " Seal " would be achieved by a molecular thickness Oil Film on the Chamber wall . Basically how a LOT of the actual Sealing of a Piston Ring works . Clearances in Deci-Microns .

  311.  @balajichandrasekaran6312  . VGT is a system that provides variably Nozzle Speed in the Exhaust gas flow to smooth out the Response of the Turbo compressor . It improves spool-up basically .
    3
  312.  @peterscott2662  . That isn't true . There are most definitely Linear Plain Bearings in use Industrially . This application could EASILY be solidly engineered . Oiling in the Normal manner . Through the Crankshaft , that needs the Most Oil Pressure , because of the Circular Journals , then on to the Primary and Secondary Cross-slide linear bearings , that bear the High compressional loads , then onward to the Vertical Side play Linear bearings , that absorb any of the minimal side thrust component then finally a small amount finds its way to the Piston Rings . Exact same as : Oil Pump feeds into Main Bearings , then through the Crank to the Big-Ends and finally up through the Rods to the Small-Ends and finally the Rings . SAME Feed chain .

  326. Gympie Gympie aka Suicide Bush . Apparently there is something similar in South Africa . Which makes a certain amount of sense I guess . Also , there was a Short Clip of " Natives " in this video that WERE NOT Aboriginal or Thursday Islanders OR New Guinea natives . Kalahari Bushmen . Africa .

  327. Sixes are Usually more reliable than Bent 8s . 7 Main bearings to deal with what's going on . V-8 only has 5 . You COULD build a Very Offset 8 to increase Main bearing count to 8 , but lose the Packaging advantages .

  333. Are you Spamming ? The Territory used to be De-Restrict right through the North-South Road until the Ran a " Cannonball " Event up there , long ago . There was an Horrific Accident at one of the Checkpoints with 5 deaths occurring . This led to a Federal Law that the National Limit was 100 km/h . The " Ghostbusters " signs DO still exist here and there around the place , but they MEAN 100 . Any time one of those gets replaced , a Number replaces it . A State can post a Higher limit on certain Roads , BUT , they have to be SPECIFIC as to what that higher limit is .

  422.  @horrorhotel46290 . Correction , this wasn't and " Ad " . It was a review by an Indepenndant YouTuber about a bit of SO FAR unannounced Technology .
    2
  423. Fun Fact . A Dynamometer can only read the Torque of an Engine . Horsepower is derived Mathematically from the Engines Architecture . ie : Bore , Stroke and Gudgeon Pin Offset if any and RPM achieved .
    2
  424.  @putinslittlehacker4793  . Yes , obviously there would be Oil Bleeding to do after Servicing . But that's true of Conventional Engines too . The Oiling system would actually be pretty simple in something like this Design though , and Centrifugal Force basically IS the backlash adjustment . Also a bit of Air may not present that much of a Problem , since the Rotor should be on Roller Bearings and the Oil pressure quite Low but voluminous for Rotor Cooling . I think the Vanes should be " Mounted " tangentially in DEEP grooves and 6 -7 mm thick . Thicker than the Actual Peak distance between the Rotor and Chamber and Ends Chamfered to match the Chamber wall . This Engine doesn't need to produce Massive " Bangs " since it will produce FOUR PER REVOLUTION . I think it will have a VERY optimum Speed and be less effective out of that range . That would make it Ideal for Hybrid Drives .
    2
  425.  @Chastity_Belt  . Hmm . Firstly , Production Tolerances . Ever heard of those ? Secondly , Metallurgy . Ever heard of that either ? Moving Parts you say ? What ? All 5 of them ? A LOT of the Engineering issues have already been solved in other Configurations . A Piston Engine gets Hot at the Top but the Bottom of the Block stays cold , by your logic . Does this make Blocks crack in half longitudinally ? NO , it doesn't . Heat tends to " Soak " from Hot areas to Cold ones . The thing that cops a beating due to Differential Heat is HEAD GASKETS . Wankels get Hot on one side but not the other . Heat Soaks away . Cooling Jackets DO NOT distribute Heat , they take it away . All 'round , Poorly Pondered .
    2
  426. I am ASTONISHED at the number of people who really don't " Get " this . Only 5 moving parts . And a LOT of the Engineering and Metallurgical challenges have already been solved in Other Heat Engines . People seem to be mistaking an Infographic , to demonstrate a concept , for a Blueprint . Very Common thing here . The ACTUAL dimension changes in a REAL engine would be quite Small . Think 6 inch rotor and chamber 6 1/2 inches tall and 6 1/8 wide . Vanes TANGENTIALLY in the rotor 3 1/2 inches deep . Simple Centrifugal force would do MOST of the Work pushing the Vanes Outward . An Engine that requires VERY LITTLE oil pressure , to minimise the Wankel Problem . The design is Sound .
    2
  427. Vane Engine has FOUR . Per rotation .
    2
  428. Motorcycle WET clutches generally have 11 - 15 Plates . 5 - 7 Friction Plates . The Oil Bath is for dissipating heat . High Pressure Plate Pressure . Conversely Ducati often went for a 2 Plate DRY clutch . Very Very high Pressure Plate pressure . Hard Clutch Lever .

  430. Wasted Spark arrangements were found to offer ,Yes , more precise Ignition timing but Also Economy AND Emission benefits . Early technology that was REALLY beneficial . And at the End got to MSD . As described . Tremendous ZAP with some duration . Bye bye misfires . Very well explained . Ignition tech for tyro's . Tractor , Standard Distributor , perhaps with Electronic Igniter . Top Fuel Dragster . MSD system please .
    2
  431.  @spootneo64  . Ah ! Tech Talk , huh ? Diesel Injection IS the Ignition Cycle for that type of Engine And Yes EXTREMELY high Injection Pressures . Stand Alone Direct Petrol Injection is at Very High Pressure , for fast atomisation and SHORT duration , at very slightly before the Spark Event . And Dual Injection , the Direct Injector WILL be adding to the Already burning Port Injected Fuel . I personally LIKE Properly Set Up and adjusted Carburettor(s) . And a Digital Ignition to go with it . More reliable and No Reason it can't be just as economical AND clean burning . Just needs Care-Taking .

  450. The Honda Valkyrie is a 1.8 litre FLAT 6 . The Sporty Model of the Current Goldwing Motor . The V-8 sound you are used to is , Yes , much lower Revs and usually with a Cross-Plane Crank . 90 degree throws . I think that is using a Flat-Plane Crank . 180 degree throws . Sounds somewhat like a V-8 Cosworth F1 Engine .

  451. I think it has the 180 degree sound .

You don't get Arrested for it , just Parked up for Towing . A 41 foot/12.5 metre Trailer MIGHT be Compliant , but would Restrict your Loads . Everyone else is using 45 and 48 foot trailers these days . You got a Photo ? With a link ?

  482. So Glad you mentioned " The Engineer " , Larry Perkins . At one point his Shop was building everyone else's Crate Engines . Telemetry and Fuelling Specs were THEIR problem , but the " Air Compressor " bit was a Known Item . SOLID ! Larrikan Larry .

  483. 351 Cleveland (5.8 litres) . 4V heads (does not mean 4 valve , just a development) . May have been Injected at that stage . YEP ! Sounded wonderful . Take another look at the In-car Clip again . Conrod straight WITHOUT the Chase in it . They used to get Air-borne at the Hump .

  484.  @bigoz1977  . I knew a Weird guy . He was Ford all the way . But drove a Holden VL Calais . When you pointed this out to him he would SHOUT , " It is NOT a Holden , it's a CALAIS ! " . Yeah right buddy . A Nissan Skyline with a Body Kit then ?
    2
  485.  @timjohnun4297  . Really ? What about the SLR5000 before it ? Or the XU-1 before that ?
    2
  486.  @jarpa153  Pretty well the same over here on Federal Free Territory . Not however on Private Property or Military Land .
    2
  487.  @jokervienna6433  . What ? You walked your Dog all the way into the Logging camp without getting stopped and sent away ? From the Heavy Industrial Site . That you were not authorised to be in ? Miles into the Forest .

  488. Darrell Lea is a Confectioner of the Highest calibre . They used to have their own Boutique stores . That became too expensive , Business Rationality wise , to maintain . Basically they went broke and got a Bail-out . Cash injection . Now they Market the same way as everyone else . The Original people maintained their positions on the Production floor . Other heads rolled . BTW the Wife and Kids are ADORABLE . All .

  489. Real Liquorice is Black/Dark brown and ANISEED Flavoured .

  490. I believe that Big Orange thing under the Water is a Coral of some kind . The " Prison Tree " looks like a Baobab Tree I reckon . I'm with you on the Light in the Sky . Sceptics will make Bullshit up , just for the sake of Nay-saying . Car Headlight ? Rubbish ! The " Henley On Todd " Regatta is Uniquely Australian alright . Asbestos Ghost Town . Wittenoom . Birds are VERY adaptable . Don't forget , they are really Dinosaurs .
    2
  491. The Toyota V-8 was quite likely a 1-UZ . 4.0 litre and bulletproof . Badged as a Lexus when released here , but as a Toyota everywhere else on Earth . That Kid has an OBVIOUS Future as a Gameshow Host !
    2
  492. The Pub Scene was hilarious . These days the Girls Give as good as they get , in terms of language . Yeah there WAS a Law change to permit Women into Public Bars . Prior to that Women were restricted to the " Parlour " . That Storm Front Cloud . 100% Real , Buddy . A " Southerly Buster " . Storm blowing in from the Southern Ocean . Kangaroos are NOT intrinsically dangerous . They're quite an intelligent Animal and just want to go about their business unmolested .

  493. That Datsun was WILD and Gorgeous .

  494.  @warrenbridges1891  . Ah Right . Timing Case IS the give-up .
    2
  495. Many defunct names on that list Ian . Near the End there . White Trucks and Autocar amalgamated and became Western Star . There are Other examples of the same thing , in Europe as well . And if you have a CLOSE look , you can see many Obvious " Under Licence " built Vehicles . And Freightliner is really a Mercedes Benz subsidiary . Renault owned the Mack name for a long time , though not now . Lots of these intermarriages .
    2
  496. Where he dived through there , end of Skyline into the First of the esses , he probably got Airborne . No wonder he was on two wheels trying to stay out of the Sand . His Testicles are heavier than his Car . Probably only 1600cc's too . Because he didn't lose momentum into the Esses , it's no surprise he was simply GAWN after that . Great to see a Pretty little Silly-Car (Celica) running around too . The Yellow car . Great Racing . Proper , as they say .
    2
  497.  @HJZ75driver  . There are Definitely no Road Train Prime-Movers out there running Single Drive and Lazy Axle . All Tandem Drive or even Triple Drive Axle .

  500.  @whybutwhy  . Pretty sure Austria doesn't have a Car Industry . Nor Australia , any more .
    2
  501.  @vampiric4real  , Um . Why ? The Holden FJ was built Locally , in Australia , based from Chevrolet hardware . OUR first Domestic Car . And EFIGY was tribute to the First HOLDEN . Chrysler had absolutely NOTHING to do with it .
    2
  502. The Car you thought was a " Mondeo " , was in fact a Falcon EL model . Bigger than any Mondeo . And the Old " Square " cars were NOT 60's vintage . 70's . This Track started as a Dirt Road . Right where it still is . No re-alignment , other than the Chase on Conrod to SLOW THEM DOWN . Had to Buy the Land off a Local to do so , because , Yes , people Definitely live there . NASCar was born from " Ridge-runners " I believe ?

  503.  @samsta65  . Drunk in Public ? On PRIVATE Property ?

  504. Yello and Red Truck is definitely a SIX .

  505. The " Strongest " they are talk of there is Not Horsepower . They are talking about the Chassis Rating . And yeah , 500 tonne SINGLE rating is truly Outrageous .
    2
  506. The Nissan Bluebird was a Domestic Small Sedan . 2-litre . More like DATSUN than a Nissan . VERY GOOD HANDLING and Steering as they came . Pre Skyline Era . Georges Car was a Turbo-charged version fettled for Racing and it went like a Scalded Cat . Very tightly wound Engine Package . David vs Goliath scenario .

  507.  @zwieseler  . Depends on the Spider , that has decided to Live in YOUR place . Some you really DONT want around .

  511. That was intense . The Professionalism of the Officers involved is extraordinary in the circumstances . Well DONE Gentlemen . Really glad EVERYONE was OK in the end . Perpetrator included . The Perp could DRIVE , goddamn .

  512. That's rather unkind........................................🤣
    2
  513.  @davidthenotorious3600  . I fully agree . However , they really ARE seriously outgunned , and no-one is prepared to aid them .
    2
  514. YES ! I do think that is a Deep-Fake Putin . Almost certainly His Voice though . Also , I wish YouTube would get their Heads out of their Arses . Happy New Year Jake . SLAVA UKRAINE.
    2
  515.  @mikedittsche  . Well said...........................🤣

  516. Which , when you think about it , is Troubling . Glaciers shouldn't be THAT fast .😂
    2
  517.  @luccamdr_xd2202  . That , quite frankly , sounds WAY more like Russian move . After all , they MUCH PREFER targeting Civilian Centre's . Anyone who can't shoot back .
    2
  518. I still fail to UNDERSTAND HOW , Domestic Border Security relates , whatsoever , with Foreign Aid / Policy . Fucking POLITICIANS .
    2
  519.  @BowHunter87  . That would just encourage you to CONTINUE being Lazy...........
    2
  520. The House of Cards that is Russia is clearly crumbling . Even those standing INSIDE it , scratching their fat arses , are starting to notice .
    2
  521. Yep . Volodimir Zelensky IS a True Leader . No doubts there . Like Nadia , at the end , is Gorgeous , but the Cat be like " Please Kill Me " . Just look .

  523. Trump keeps going on like he is , he will Torpedo Himself . But keep Hammering this anyway Jake . The Bloke is a Power Mad Clown , that will say whatever he thinks will get him the Oval Office again . But seriously , Fuck Knows why he isn't in Jail . He surely belongs there .

  524.  @WorldCitizen0000  . U.S. politics is also baffling to the Bulk of U.S. Citizens too . THAT is how the Politicians like it .

  525. How did Marjorie Greene get elected in the first place ? What was her Platform ? Slava Ukrani .
    2
  526.  @darknessviking  . Having just read all three of your Comments , it's clear you're a MAGA supporter . Whatever....... The Guitar Player telling the Former USAF Strategic Missile Control Officer that he's wrong .🤣. It really is fairly obvious what Trump intends . Problem is , he really doesn't understand the Protagonists . Ukraine aren't going to back down . They are in an EXISTENTIAL war . Haven't you worked that out yet ? And Putin capitulating at this point would be PERSONALLY fatal . The Old and Young thing is MUCH more a Russian issue than Ukraine .
    2
  527. Yeah , Well.... The U.S. needs to remember the DEAL they made with Ukraine , concerning Nukes and even " White Swan " Delivery Platforms . They need to H O N O U R that Deal immediately , or quite frankly , they're No Better than Russia . Just lying opportunists . I'm over it . Ukraine don't want Foreign Soldiers on their Land assisting , but Volunteers are Welcome . They JUST NEED SOME SUPPLIES . Get To It . Job #1 , get Trump in Jail , for eternity , because it is EVER so clear that's where he belongs . Job#2 , Pop a Cap in Johnson . End of that . Job #3 , Poland , get your Shit Together please . Immediately . Wishlist , Pop a Cap in PUTIN .

  530. Russia is Corrupt . Russia is incompetent . Russia is C O L D . Isn't KARMA a bitch . Mitt Romney just said what Everyone Else is thinking . Right on the Money . Those Ukrainian Women can SING . The Girl on the Right has a STRONG voice . Ta-Tu in Fatigues .
    2
  531.  @TmackSD184  Russian Ingenuity , huh.....................🤣. Slava Ukraini !
    2
  532. Actually , because he has ALREADY stated that the Reason for the Invasion is a False Premise , I think he would withdraw . THAT ALSO can be an Interpretation of " Fighting this War Efficiently " . Stop Sensationalizing Times Radio . We need to see what happens next .👎
    2
  533. This Faux Coup was only Round 1 . Mark my Words .
    2
  534. Last I heard , the U.S. stuck their hand up about that Pipeline . But SERIOUSLY , why would Ukraine blow that Dam ? Russia is starting to fold , Western Aid keeps coming , Civil War has started within Russia , and so forth . PUTIN IS DOOMED . Ukraine , quite rightly , want their LAND BACK from these Vandalous interlopers . Preferably in REASONABLE condition . Also , a DIFFERENT SCALE of Vandalism involved . Are you a Russo-Simp propaganda bot " Frank " ?
    2
  535. The Best of the Best of the Best . Thank You for your Service .

  540. You clearly have no idea of the Function of the Boom . No , they will not be " Banned " .

  541. Not really True . Even if YOU yourself have no Symptoms , you can pass the Bug to someone else that it may Affect Badly . After a certain amount of time you become Non-Infectious AND Immune yourself . THAT is what Quarantine time is about . Also ! Simply because you are Vaccinated does NOT mean you cannot SPREAD the Damn thing . What I have seen of this Plague , so far , is that it is actually NOT as serious as Standard Flu . But it IS Worldwide . And Very transmissible . Gets the Very Young , the Very Old and the otherwise compromised . Too Much Bullshit talked about this whole situation .
    2
  542. " Jelly Back " Albanese NEEDS to go . ASIO and more especially ASIS also need to be granted AUTONOMY to act . I feel sure they probably KNEW about this stuff , but got " Gagged " by Canberra . Antisemitism , or any Other form of Racism , whether against Jew or Arab , is totally UNACCEPTABLE . At the same time , Cultural Lobby Groups attempting to " Hijack " the Narrative on Public Policy is EQUALLY unacceptable . Yes , that means you " Indigenous Australia " . We are A L L Australian , and there is absolutely NO POINT to belabouring the Misdeeds from TWO F%$KING CENTURIES PLUS , ago . As you can tell , I am completely OVER the complete Bullshitery that gains far too much traction here . There are FAR BIGGER issues that need attention , like , for instance sake , ENERGY SECURITY , along with plenty of other B I G problems .

  543.  @Scotty123-o3u . To be a Blind Idolater of Cultish catch-cry's , is just dumb...............

  548. Labor and Greens : " Bulldoze all the Forests and build Windfarms . That will get us to Net Zero " . Anyone at all with a Brain ; " You guys realise that Trees ABSORB CO2 and emit Oxygen , right ?...........RIGHT ?! " . Labor and Greens : "............Don't distract us with FACTS , we have an Agenda to fulfil ! " .

Albo : Prove to me that it wasn't a Chicken wearing a Duck Suit.................. Public : Well it just got Barbecued , does it smell like Chicken , Duck or Rubber Suit ? Albo : " - - - - - - - - - - - - It was A Terrorist Attack..................... " . " I should probably look like I'm doing something.................. " .

  551. Apparently ONLY the " Lunatic Fringe " posts comments in here . Seriously , WTF is WRONG with you people . FMD .

  552. Actually , getting Coal as a Fuel source OUT of the Mix is a Great idea , but going about that MORE SENSIBLY is essential . There is nothing wrong , whatsoever , with renewables , but they CERTAINLY can't be relied on for Base-Load .
    2
  553. Getting Coal fueling out of the Equation IS a good idea , but using it anyway in the Interim makes perfect sense . A Balanced approach to rebuilding the Power infrastructure . Nuclear to replace Coal ON THE SAME SITE , using existing grid . Renewables can be directed to Battery/Capacitor Banks for Peak supplementation . Gas can still be Emergency / Contingency Back-up . ALSO , this SHOULD be built by the Government . Not Profiteering Contractors . Keep it as PUBLIC Property .

  568.  @CarburetorThompson  . Language likely to be less of an issue than you think . South Korea are sending People to assist with exactly THAT .

  569.  @officialme7077  . T-55 is nothing more than a Self propelled " Field Gun " these days . Fucking Small Arms fire can stop one .
    2
  570.  @j2ax136  . Crimea is important because it is UKRANIAN TERRITORY . And Russia cut off the Fresh water supply to it when they blew up the Nova Khakovka Dam . Also , by the same action , risking a possible Meltdown in the Nuclear Power facility . The Fallout Cloud from THAT scenario would have covered a HUGE Area over Russia itself . Face it , Russia are VANDALS , War Criminals and fucking idiots .
    2
  571.  @zebra00024 . JDAM's are an American built Munition . So.............I think not .

  572. I think you're dead right . I had already drawn the same conclusion before you said it . Too many different Groups and NONE of them communicate with others .

  576.  @Tom_McMurtry  I think it LIKELY to be Longer than a Year until that Dam is fixed , and Regular water can be assured .
    2
  577. No , you aren't .
    2
  578. One Problem is Ukraine doesn't simply throw LIVES at things , like Russia does . They don't Squander their Troops . I smell something totally unexpected coming , really Suddenly . Ukraine has robust logistics and not much shortage of anything except Aircraft . Slava Ukrani .

  580.  @SirBedevereTheWise  . Yes , I know . That " See Fit " part is the Kicker . No-One MUST respond . It's optional . Clearly , the situation would be CLOSELY monitored , and diplomatic pressure applied , to Both sides . If , however , Turkey DOES , unnecessarily , withdraw from NATO , then obviously Greece would then have the Umbrella of the Alliance behind them . NATO is NOT a " Bomb Throwing Club " , it's a Strategic Alliance between a number of Sovereign Nations with similar or Compatible Political stances . I re-iterated - Erdogan is the Real problem .

  581.  @hgbugalou  . Hey ! there's a PLAN ! I'll start on a recipe , down in my shed , RIGHT NOW . I may need a good " Marketing Guy " a bit later...............

  582.  @SpartasEdge . You aren't very bright , are you ? @popermaen694 was referring to the Company HE works for , ONLY . He isn't in a position to speak about any Other companies , that he doesn't work for , obviously . Hence his disclaimer .
    2
  583. Curiouser and Curiouser ............. interesting twist that .
    2
  584. I immediately thought " False Flag Ukrainian Atrocities " . So much a Russian Playbook Staple .
    2
  585. If Ukraine wasn't " Tied Up " with problems of their Own (that you should have ACTUALLY HELPED WITH , as promised) , they could probably help you out with that................................

  586.  @michajastrzebski4383  . That doesn't make it any Less Hypocrisy . You meant EXPEDIENCY .
    2
  587.  @Jay.Kellett  . AS IF.......................

  588. Why deliberately " Overlook " the Fact that Ukraine was the Soviet Industrial Powerhouse , Paul ? " Ukraine copied our Missiles " . Not necessarily my friend................ SLAVA UKRAINI .

  589. Less Vodka ?
    2
  590. The " Long Knives " are out . This is FUN . A Train Wreck in Super " Slo-Mo " . 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I still thing this is ROUND 1 playing out .
    2
  591. Not to mention , Option 5 would probably bring Everyone Else to the Party too . Sure , it's Russian Territory , but the mere USE of a Nuclear Weapon would likely be unacceptable all 'round .
    2
  592. Russia is making Limited advances in areas where there ARE NO UKRAINIAN TROOPS . yay .
    2
  593. Where is Taurus Missile ? STOP HOLDING OUT .
    2
  594.  @joeordinary209  . Yeah , I completely understand that . I did NOT say it was your intention . What I did was correct someone's errant assumption that NATO membership Prevented you now . That's all .
    2
  595.  @paulurban2472  . It really WAS .
    2
  596.  @StompingRabbits  . I believe there are some Training right now . And Ukraine DOES have their own MIG's too already y'know .
    2
  597. Yep . That was exactly how I saw that too . A Win/Win scenario or Putler . Recon Troops and Zero Long term Medical support required .
    2
  598. EXCELLENT Tutorial on Tribal dynamics in the Middle East , and other places too of course . I agree with you that it's LIKELY not really an issue in the larger Narrative . Just Local " Policing " , so to speak .
    2
  599. That WAS indeed Fascinating watching . Actually a GOOD Report . No Politicking or Propaganda , just the Facts . A " Day in the Life " mini documentary of a Drone Fire-Team , that just happen to be Russian . I'm sure the Ukrainians work the same . That said............. SLAVA UKRANI .

  600.  @haymaker710  . Not the People in THIS video . Motorised Infantry , not Paratroopers .

  601.  @haymaker710 . No . Direct Ground Assault .
    2
  602.  @MrTrenchcoatguy  . Yeah . That was my point .
    2
  603. Yeah , that's right , the Thirty Year Veteran Master Sergeant made the mistake here . Not the Lieutenant JG , six months out of Newport . Officers don't make mistakes........................

  604.  @mattolivier1835  . Stuff getting Sold , attracts TAXES , so think it through a bit better , OK .

  605.  @Ollies2CentsWardill  . Yeah...........That's him................
    2
  606. But it is ALSO TRUE . Adolk Hipler is definitely Persona Non Grata on YouTube .
    2
  607. And Here is the Reason that BOTH Parties to this are Utterly Insupportable .
    2
  608. Love your own " Spin " there Paul . Russia don't " Need Permission " , but it IS in everyone's best interest to AVOID CONFUSION concerning a Missile with a Ballistic Trajectory . You know , to Avoid Mistakes .

  610.  @Revolutionisnear1110  . Ummm , don't you mean " Special Military Operations " , Sergei ?
    2
  611. Seems to me that Right Now , man for man , the Ukrainian Military is Way the Best in the World , by a fair margin . The Russians are Generally Amateurish by comparison , PLUS they don't Talk to each other .
    2
  612. UK and France have GIVEN their Thumbs Up . Trouble is............NATO Supreme Commander in Europe................is an AMERICAN .
    2
  613. First they need Russia OUT of the Donbass region . Then it is time to " Discuss " Crimea . I hope Ukraine takes it back . Slava Ukrani . Yes the Bridge must stand for now .
    2
  614.  @SunriseLAW  . Ferries need specifically built Docks . They are NOT like Assault Ships and Tunnels would also NOT be suitable .
    2
  615. You're Kidding , right ? Yes , that SHOULD , but not likely to happen.........................
    2
  616. No large pool of Unemployed People , and No export Market for Military Goods makes this tactic pure " Smoke and Mirrors " . TRD is correct , Putler is just trying to bamboozle the Populace with Jingo-ism . It CANNOT actually WORK to save the Economy .
    2
  617. Couldn't have said it better . And quite likely what would Actually happen in the long run .
    2
  618.  @JZsBFF  . Yeah , Catholicism is how I got to Atheism too .
    2
  619.  @JZsBFF  . Give me 15 Rosary's , 10 Hail Mary's and 3 Lords Prayers , so I know you're telling the Truth......🤣. OK I get it , but at Face Value it seemed like you were Expounding Piety , politely . A surprise in itself .
    2
  620. Nah , just an Act of Parliament to Annex the Place .
    2
  621.  @grandchancelor  . And you BELIEVE THEM ? Sacre' Bleu...... Merde' even . I feel sure NO-ONE else does............

  625. The Battle Babooshkas ?

  626.  @GeekFurious . You might be surprised . Russia is currently between a Rock and a Hard Place , politically . And they ARE running out of Money , Materiel and Manpower .

  629. I actually wish Prighozian had kept going and Succeeded . I think the War would have ended . Yes , he was a Piece of "Shit " , but he came across as an HONEST one . A Patriotic Nationalist , sure , but I don't believe he shared Putin's " Vision " for the Future of Russia . A Realist , like ALL soldiers are . It was easy to tell Russia ultimately stood No chance as soon as the " Three Day " thing , Failed .

  630. A FEMALE friend of mine , 27 yrs of age , a Tiny Slender Young Woman , has been living abroad since pretty well the START of this Shitfight in Ukraine . She is Travelling Home as we speak , because her Mother is Sick . I know nothing of Military " suitability " parameters in Russia currently , but this DOES worry me . Obviously Males take the Major brunt of these things , but , other Background Services within the Military frequently use Female members , and quite often in Forward areas . This Girl is like a HIPPIE , but 50 years later . Worries me badly .

  648.  @davidmiller9485  . Actually it IS a structural piece . The Starter gear , when engaged with the Flexplate , produces a Lateral force because of the shape of the Gear teeth profile . Starter needs BOTH mounting points to resist torque reaction and that lateral force .

  679. I have had to Understand some of the Technical differences discussed here during my time as a Marine Engineering rating with the Armed forces of my Country . My understanding is that Forged Pistons , that need Extensive machining anyway , are actually machined very slightly conical . narrower at the crown , where there is more material to expand . Helps mitigate the Piston slap mentioned because the skirt can still be a reasonable fit as long as it ISN'T a FULL skirt . And , no mention of Pressure Casting either I notice . VERY HIGH pressure injection molding realistically . 300 bar plus , with a controlled cooling cycle . Very good product .

  681. About Time that someone put all the " Inconvenient Facts " into a concise , plainly spoken presentation . And kept it to 20 minutes , to account for the Average Humans ATTENTION SPAN . Electric Technology DOES have it's uses . High Torque applications , De-centralisation of Air pollution etc . But EV technology DOES NOT reduce pollution at all . In fact it Increases it . Just puts it where Fewer people notice .

  682. There IS one more type of Crankshaft . Built-Up . Very Expensive Manufacture but can be Strongest of all . Multiple precision parts pressed together . Parts can be machined for Optimum Material Strength and Hardness , and can even be Taper Splined . 1000 tonne pressing with slight interference fit . Crank-Webs heated and Crankpins chilled for Pressing process . Roller Bearings can be used if desired , fitted to Crankpins at Assembly stage . Crank-webs are often Full Circe design , weight relieved for counterweighting on the both side-faces . In fact Conrods CAN be fitted during Assembly . The least windage therefore . Only a light Flywheel needed as well . There is also the possibility to through-Rivet the Journals if thought necessary .

  685.  @Face2theScr33n  . Dead right . Any Engine built with " Rubber Band Drive " should also be Non-interference . Valve gear should only ever be Gear Driven IMO .
    1
  686. That is only HALF True in an Interference Engine . Non-interference engine just stops running . Towed . New Belt . Vroom .
    1
  687. Double-Helical Gear drive is the BEST . Self aligning and Self tensioning , using Engine Oil pressure . Helical=Quiet . Zero Maintenance . Expensive to manufacture , maybe , but you don't have to go there again until the Engine ACTUALLY requires a Full Rebuild anyway .
    1
  688. Something not mentioned here . Iron , even Cast , has more " Spring " in it . Can be distorted and return to original shape better . That is where some of the " Strength " actually comes from . Like the Palm tree and the Oak tree in a Hurricane . Palm bends . Oak gets ripped out of the ground .

  692. My thinking with the FLAT Scotch Yoke bearings is that they will have a Lower Loading than Circular Shell Bearings . And Uni-directionally . Just keep some Oil Pressure there and there shouldn't be ANY drama . Seems the Piston Skirls are an Active Load bearing area . Lower load than normal . That Lateral " Pushing " could also be contained with Linear Bearings . That would be an extremely Low loading I would think . AUSSIE Boys and Germans . Y A Y ! I am an Australian , and I have never heard a WHISPER about this either . Looks REALLY interesting .

  695. Completely have to Disagree with removing Material from under the Crown . And with using a DRILL . Use the DREMEL . After weighing , inspect and see if you can SEE the Extra material . Casting Flash etc . Clean them up and see if that improves things . Then remove material from the Buttress area behind the Thrust Surfaces tiny bit BOTH sides . Tiny bit at a time .

I could have simply Lied here , and said I'm currently working on a " Proof of Concept " build , which would have shut you up . Instead , I would rather you just pull your head in . Do Not Address Me Again . Good Bye .

  699.  @MrDuncl  . Ummmmmmmmmm , yes , you do . And A-frame Two-stroke has that too . Whereas a Wankel or a Crankcase Transfer Two-stroke need peripheral lubrication . Why are you pointing that out ?
    1
  700.  @BlacKi-nd4uy  . A Wankel gets by with some Oil cooling through the Cavity in the Rotor and Water Jackets on the Casing . This is Completely Similar in structure . And I think the Cycling up and down / In and Out , of the Vanes Twice every revolution would probably keep them clean . Also , no PCV issues with this , there isn't a Crankcase . Any Blow-by is completely internal anyway .
    1
  701.  @American-Motors-Corporation  . I agree with almost ALL you said there . But , in terms of it's operation , a Wankel IS a Two-Stroke Engine complete with requiring Oil Infected Peripheral Oiling . Whereas This " Contraption " IS a Linear 4-Stroke . The Wankel's emission problems revolve around that issue . I think this Engine , properly engineered , etc , will produce a Complete Fuel Burn , at relatively low combustion temperatures which is considered the " Gold Standard " in terms of emissions . The EPA have been granted FAR too much Autonomy AND Autocracy . They are the ones Pressuring Governments in this " Greenwashing " EV direction . Electric Vehicles are a SCAM being perpetrated on the Public . They are certainly No Greener at all . The majority of them are going to run on Coal Fired Electricity . Just " relocating " the CO2 into someone else's backyard . And car companies , obviously , run on Market Fashion . Yes , they are producing Shit-tons of EV's . That they CAN'T SELL . Too expensive . And quite Frankly those Batteries are F-ing DANGEROUS Bombs ,just waiting to go off . Don't misunderstand , I am all FOR Emissions reduction . But please - - - - can we have some RATIONAL discussion on the matter , rather than Reactionary B/S . I do suspect this Engine concept probably WAS tried , but maybe current Technology couldn't come up with answers for an Air-Motor with FIRE inside it . Therefore , suppressed and forgotten . Modern Machining and Materials Science has already produced answers to the Bulk of the Issues I believe . Mazda would have no " Patent Rights" of any kind . This thing has more in common with a Sarich Orbital than a Wankel . I've run out of Steam here . An Industrial Revolution Problem . 🤣. Yon put a Great and Broad-Based take on it . Good talking with you .
    1
  702.  @DirkLarien  . Yeah , Exactly . An Engine with FIVE moving parts . And , Yes , probably an EXCELLENT platform for a Generator/Capacitor bank Hybrid . Surely a Worthy Project/Concept to pursue , especially in " Today's " Greenwashing political environment .

  703.  @bftjoe  . You haven't told me YOUR actual area of Expertise . How you Feed Yourself . All you seem capable of , is spitting Vitriol . Are you REALLY that insecure . The fact that you state something fallacious doesn't make that SO . You seem to really be incapable of the slightest bit of Lateral Thinking . And you HAVE BEEN TOLD MULTIPLE TIMES THAT THIS IS A CONCEPTUAL ENGINE , NOT CURRENTLY IN PRODUCTION , which you " Choose " to conveniently Ignore so you can pursue " Your Narrative / Agenda " . Are you actually a Russian Propagandist , taking a break from the News Channels ? SO , AGAIN , what's your Work Background ?
    1
  704.  @bftjoe  . They ALL run on the Same Principle . Of course they are not all Identical , but BUILT FOR PURPOSE . I am a Former Naval Engineer . Retired person these days . So what are YOUR credentials ? Oh , and are you going to answer my Specific Question ?
    1
  705.  @bftjoe  . This type of Motor IS already in use . As Air-Motors and Various types of Vane Pumps , for Gases and Liquids . It's a PROVEN Technology that's been around for a REALLY long time and is extremely reliable . This idea is just a " Next Logical Step " Concept . I mean ALL engines are , at the bottom line , simply AIR PUMPS . There is absolutely NOTHING about this idea that is " Too Hard " . D4A said during the Video that these do Not exist right now , and I reiterated that to you as well Earlier . Did you ignore the Comment ? Anyways... I too am surprised SOMEONE ISN'T building these already . Maybe someone tried and the Oil Industry jumped on it and " Suppressed " the shit out of it . THAT has happened before you know . Big Oil HATES super efficient Heat Pump designs . They undercut their profits . So tell me , why are you becoming Irrational , and in fact Insulting ? Answer me THAT .
    1
  706.  @DerSpeggn  . I saw that commentary . He was referring to the ENDS of the Vanes next to the Sidewalls / Endplates . True , in use , modern tech . Machining tolerances are that good these days .
    1
  707.  @billyjoelization  . The Oil Pressure Relief / transfer ports would have to be quite large to keep response time good and there would need to be a couple of Tiny Bleedback ports somewhere to reunite that ostensible trapped oil back into the Main system . To keep it clean and to provide for potential OverPressure events .

  708.  @JJFX-  . Yeah , annoying isn't it . Dumb people that come here to try and Learn New Things , but when they Fail to comprehend the principle explained the Concept is , of course , Flawed or Fake or Fallacious , and they get abusive and dismissive rather than considering the Problem is Really them and their Closed Minds . It is VERY frequent on this channel that the Less Bright ones confuse an Infographic for an actual Blueprint .
    1
  709.  @bftjoe  . Well , existing Wankels for starters . And Seal Tech is covered by those AND anything with Piston Rings . Sorry , I'm unable to find an Emoji for either of those to Post for you . Sliding Vanes are OLD TECH . Just comes down to Materials Science there . The Forging and Machining of the Chamber and Rotor components is basic and simple . Aluminium with a Nikasil Coating would be perfect for the Chamber and the Rotor assembly as well . A heavily Splined , Shrink Fit Steel Shaft through the centre for Drive output . Keeping it All Aluminium would keep Expansion rates consistent . Could you stop being an Irrelevant " Pain in the Arse " please . The FACT that you don't actually understand the Concept OR the Existing Engineering that applies , IS NOT MY FAULT . It's a YOU Problem . OK . We good now ?
    1
  710.  @oluskloc  . Same as ANY other Engine . Or potentially MUCH better , because of the possibility of getting a COMPLETED burn .
    1
  711.  @JJFX-  . Yeah annoying isn't it . I 've already said the same earlier . Stupid People that come here to try and LEARN something , then they Fail to comprehend the Principle , so therefore , obviously , the Idea is Rubbish and Flawed , not them . Mistaking an Infographic for an Actual Fucking Blueprint is common on this channel . 🤣.

  712.  @danalmighty8248  . Ammonia is NOT a combustible . It can liberate some Hydrogen is introduced into an Existing Flame . And also increases NOx production .
    1
  713.  @billyjoelization  . Well now , since the Rotor itself will need to be cooled as well , and I suspect this Engine would only need Very low Oil pressure , a Very high volume , Low pressure Oil pump could flood a large cavity inside the rotor and some tiny Capillary holes could feed oil Under the vanes . And then separately using some much larger galleries , forming a ring , interconnect the Vane Slots to each other . Thereby , the Vanes being pushed in will discharge their Oil towards the ones that are Extending . And the Large Oil flow would extract Waste Heat from the whole assembly to an Oil Cooler . The whole assembly would run at ambient Oil Pressure , with some self evident fluctuations . Just a thought .
    1
  714.  @ihavethedocuments2580  . No Oil goes in the Combustion Chamber of a Piston Engine you say . Bull - SHIT . Trace amounts always go through the Fire . It's essential or the Thing will seize in short order . Oil control is a MAJOR part of Engine design .
    1
  715.  @lassikinnunen  . Actually there have been plenty of Vane Type Water pumps used in automotive and other applications and Superchargers don't actually seal solidly at the Rotor Edges . Just a Close Fit without contact . They depend on Mass flow and Inertia . The Vanes in this Engine DO NOT have to be Thin . They could be 6 -8 mm thick and also be Deeply embedded in the Rotor in a Tangential arrangement , pointing AWAY from the direction of rotation . " Leaning INTO the fire " so to speak . In actual operation the Gaps and Clearances would be quite small in the Swept Volume . I can also envision Efficiency gains by " Profiling " the different Sectors of the Swept Volume as well . Centrifugal Force would do most of the Work holding the Vanes to the Chamber surface and Compressional or Combustion forces would Tighten the seal as required at those stages . And actual Peripheral Seal efficiency could perhaps be further enhanced by some means Resembling Keystone or Dykes type Compression Rings in a conventional engine . Of course there would be some Fresh Engineering challenges , but 90 -95% are already Solved in Other Engines development .
    1
  716.  @bftjoe  . Simple . I DON'T OWN A MACHINE SHOP . Plus , as I have already pointed out , the Engineering Challenges have all already been solved .
    1
  717.  @411bvRGiskard  . Reasonable thinking , but No . The Vanes need to be a Close sliding fit into a Groove for Sealing purposes .
    1
  718.  @tturi2  . Thanks for your Two Cents worth . NO , the Chamber has a Bloody Big Drum stuck down the middle .
    1
  719. Agreed . I think Compression Ratio would not be an issue to achieve with this layout .
    1
  720. You opened a " Can of Worms " there . Firstly , Electric Cars will put Significantly Higher load on the Power Grids . No net saving in Emissions down that path . And Battery disposal is a Nightmare all its Own . You're right about Commercial Interest . Not Evil , GENERALLY Speaking . Just need to make a Profit . There have been some Truly Disgraceful Companies however . As we ALL know . No Car , using Internal Combustion , should have Plastics on any area exposed to Pressure , High Temperature or Vacuum . Inlet Manifolds , Radiator Header Tanks , THERMOSTAT HOUSINGS , Crank or Cam sensors , Rocker/Cam Covers , Etc . Governments , EVERYWHERE , need to stop thinking purely in terms of the Next Election , and start thinking about Our Grandchildren .
    1
  721.  @mho0  . Only if you get the Hydraulic Ratio Correct . Bigger and/or Better Tyres makes shorter distances because Standard Brakes , designed by VERY SMART Engineers , are Way More than capable of Locking the wheels , rather than " only just " capable .

  724. 3D printing IS Star Trek Replicator 1.0 . Seriously ! If this was done , then 1.01 at this stage . I heard that Koennigsegg designed one of their Engines , using a Twin-Scroll , Variable Turbocharger that couldn't be produced by conventional methods . So they 3D printed it in Some Grade of Stainless Steel . Other than Annealing , no finish machining POSSIBLE internally . No idea if this really happened . Koennigsegg . Lunatics . SMART lunatics . With a Very PHAT cheque-book . For these Pistons , the Heat treatment would HAVE to be an Annealing process I think and then , maybe a Hardening Flash , AFTER machining . Really interesting stuff .

  732. I feel like picking a Fight with some of FOOLS that have already commented here . Linear Plain , pressurised Oil , bearings and a lower end " Guide-post " can deal with quite a LOT of the issues . But WILL add reciprocating mass
    1
  733.  @needmoreboost6369  . Sorry , there is a LOT of shit in that thread . What is the Precise question please . It was all about Scotch Yoke Engine design and Linear Bearings and Oiling systems Etc . What's " True " and needs clarification ?
    1
  734.  @rkan2  . A Reasonable idea . Turbo Diesels are reaching pretty good Thermal Efficiency numbers these days too . Petrol Engines remain rather Poor .
    1
  735.  @CoreyCantwell-jv4be  . Flat Linear Plain bearings with a Good Pressurised Oil feed are going to wear less than a Piston Skirt does , especially since they will be Early in the Oil supply chain , and the Positive Alignment of the Piston will virtually Eliminate wear to Piston and Bore . The Scotch Yoke design doesn't even necessarily need to be much heavier than conventional Piston / Conrod layout , since the Piston itself can be lighter . Also there will be LINEAR motion only . Secondary Vibration will be almost entirely eliminated , and in a Multi Cylinder arrangement , perhaps completely . The Linear bearings , by their nature will have Larger Surface area than the Crankshaft MAIN bearings and " Big-End " Bearings , and with a more Even Loading . Easy to visualise . And then there is the Significant improvement in the Length of the Power-Strokes .
    1
  736.  @CoreyCantwell-jv4be  . Crank Rotational is Unchanged . Think please . And the Rigid Piston and Scotch Yoke assembly would run in Guides in the Block that prevent " Rocking " .
    1
  737.  @rkan2  . The Gas Turbine manufacturers have been trying to do that since the Very Early days . Power has never been an issue , but Clean Burning and Fuel Efficiency are . A " Jet " Engine can be built to operate efficiently at ONE only , Speed and Loading . That makes them Excellent for Aircraft and for SOME Ships , and Even some Locomotives . Nowhere near as suitable for Automotive use even in Heavy Haul Trucks . And even in those Applications they are suited too , they make Great Power but use a LOT of fuel . The Reciprocating Engine has been persevered with because of it's Versatility and Adaptability . If there really WAS a better way , someone would have done it .
    1
  738.  @SoulAir  . Yes . Intuitively I would expect less overall , due to the BIG reduction of Lateral forces .
    1
  739.  @ian9toes  . Was that about Roller Bearings ? They are WIDELY used in Engines , whether Torrington Shell replacements or Heavily made Full Roller or Ball type . I thought that was common enough knowledge . My Apology for offending however .

  743.  @player1GR  . A Piston moving in Opposition , whether Actually Opposed or Parallel will counter Primary vibrations . But even a Scotch Yoke design will have a degree of Secondary imbalance , though greatly reduced from a standard connecting Rod arrangement .

  746.  @mastercricket7626  . Did I say that Roller Bearings were less capable than Plain Bearings ? I am DEAD CERTAIN I didn't BTW . The Bearings are only dealing wit rotational forces , distributing that loading actually . It is Surface IMPACT faces that suffer the Worst wear .

  747.  @seanlarson8968  . To say what ?

  748.  @m.b.82  . Really ? You sure about that ? Please explain . I know you are incorrect BTW .

  749. That's been done..................... Marine engines tend to be Top Endy . Not that useful on road . Great Maximum Power though .

  750. Re-Inventing the Con-rod . Oh Kayyy . How many moving parts to that I wonder . With Free valve top end would still come in Less moving parts .
    1
  751. The Two Manifold styles have different purposes . A well designed and manufactured Log Style can produce TWO strong Pulses , whereas , the Equal Length type produces FOUR slower ones . Comes down to how the rest of the Engine is Set Up . Valve Timing , Turbo Size , and is it variable ? Ignition and Fuel Map . Both are good depending on desired OUTCOME . Log Style can be , and ARE , produced in Steel rather than Iron . One part of the Equation only . Diesels go better with Log . Petrol with Equal Length . A Generality . Race Diesel is Turbo Compounded . Tow pack Petrol would prefer Log style Manifolds . Blah , blah , blah....................... I am not criticising BTW . It all comes down to the APPLICATION .

  752.  @deusexaethera  . It is my recollection , that the Metric Weights and Volumes are thus . One Cubic Centimetre of pure water , at 4 degrees C , the highest density point , is the DEFINITION of One Gram . 1.00000g Ergo , One Litre = One Kilogram and 1000 Litres = One Metric Tonne . The Scale definitions based off the Standard Metre .

  753. Your LSD Model was really a Torsen wasn't it ? The Viscous type is what I always understood as an LSD . Viscous or Friction plate packs . Open Diff is great for your Average " Joe " round the Suburbs . Deals with Made Dirt roads too . Welded is for Drift , as said , or NASCar Tri-Oval . Off-road , part time Lockers are the go . Air-lockers OR Detroit (no-spin) Rear and Air Front . You should do a Video about the Part-Time Lockers at some Point . Another great Video . You explain things really well for those that might not quite understand the concepts .

  754.  @davidbrayshaw3529  . No , I agree with D4A . It was a cynical move to SELL PARTS and WHOLE REPLACEMENT ENGINES , and then " Greenwash " it to Consumers that don't have a clue about Mechanical things . There SHOULD be a Class Action Court case against these Manufacturers .

  762.  @rocortega2064  . Saddam Hussein was originally an American Puppet Leader . Then he decided , in the interests of his Own country , to Shrug Off the Puppet Master . America could not allow that . FAR too much OIL involved . And if you think the Middle East problems are NOT related to OIL , then you delude yourself . The US started the fight that led to 9/11 . I am not justifying what was done that day , but the US should be made aware that they brought it on themselves .

  767. My Heart bleeds for that Young Conscript . Yes , he HAS committed Murder , allegedly under Orders from a Commander . I have no reason to disbelieve that . He is too young and inexperienced to have really KNOWN what he should do . Probably had fear for his Own Family as well , in the event he Mutinied . But he will likely spend the Rest of his Life incarcerated for these actions .

  771.  @doughesson  . Teaching your Lady the benefits of being on Top will help with ONE of those Items...........😅. Sorry . just HAD to say that . Honestly , no disrespect intended . I agree about the " Welfare Mentality " thing completely . That is a Social issue that is REALLY difficult to find a Balance on . Un-obvious Health issues , and Mental Disorders are sometimes VERY difficult to affectively diagnose and than also difficult to treat . The Real Layabouts probably learned it from their Parents in the Majority of cases . Instilling a Work Ethic CAN be addressed , to a certain degree , within the Education System . But rarely IS directly addressed .
    1
  772.  @doughesson  . So , OK , FedEx are Political Activists , to their Own Ends , no Doubt . They are NOT alone in that . MY Point is that Corporate Greed that gets Politically Facilitated , is The United States BIGGEST issue concerning Social Inequity . Not the ONLY problem but certainly the most MAJOR one .
    1
  773.  @doughesson  . I made No Mention whatsoever , of the NRA . I said Big Business were the Biggest Lobby Group(s) , and are , therefore , by simple extrapolation , the CORE instigator of Americas Truly Epic Social Injustices .

  780. The General is the Only one that spoke any Sense . Putin , also , is a Thug . And that other silly woman . Do you think ANY Soldiers , from Anywhere , are not Vicious ? I think this was only ROUND 1 . Very Slanted , dis-informative Reporting CNN . Thumb Down . Slava Ukraini .

  781. Not trying to be Pro-Russia here , BUT , this is a Standard Tactic , that has been used by the U.S , UK , France , Germany , Etc , in the Past . Post Geneva Convention . Hypocrisy isn't Cool either . What Vladimir Putin has instigated is certainly Deplorable , and SHOULD , deservedly END his incumbency . But Hypocritical Rhetoric is of No Use whatsoever . Wake up People . READ some History . The PURPOSE of History , as an Academic Endeavor , is to Remember and thereby AVOID the mistakes of the Past .

  783.  @fairjust8072  . Only a Matter of Time . INEVITABLE at this point . It wasn't inevitable PRIOR to the Invasion of Ukraine . Well Done , Mr Putin .
    1
  784.  @fairjust8072  . That list of things all sound like things that USSR/Russia have done in the past . It was Putin that put 190,000 men on Ukraine's Border and then Invaded . Russia stole Crimea 14 years ago , and this time they came back to attempt to Land-Lock the Ukraine . Russia is also Holding Territory in Poland , Kaliningrad . And Border territory in Moldova . About time they got SENT THE FUCK HOME . There was No NATO directly on Russia's Border earlier . After this there DEFINITELY will be . Sweden and Finland just joined , in response to Russian Aggression , and once they get sent Home from Ukraine , you can COUNT on Ukraine being accepted too . Whole situation vastly worse than at the beginning of the " Special Military Operation " , Yes ?
    1
  785.  @Ana-xv4zy  . It was Putin that Ordered the Invasion of his SOVERIEGN Neighbour . He didn't need to do that . Nor did he HAVE TO seize Crimea 14 years ago . It's called Imperialism , and should be stopped . Putin simply wanted a Legacy of rebuilding the Soviet Union . Pretty clear really .
    1
  786.  @fairjust8072  . WTF are you talking about ? Are you Sane ? Russia INVADED Ukraine , at Putin's behest , for Imperialistic Purposes . Putin wants to rebuild the Soviet Union . The USA and Other NATO and also Non-NATO Countries decided to assist Ukraine with HARDWARE , but The People of the UKRAINE are the Ones fighting off Russia's Imperialistic Aggression .

  793. Well , keep in mind , Ukraine has a fair chunk of Kursk , which they SHOULD be keeping under this idea . Putin is Extremely unlikely to go for this idea however .
    1
  794. Clever . Good Politicking . Ukraine has a " Plan " for a negotiated Ceasefire . Putin will almost CERTAINLY reject this . Thereby RUSSIA becomes the Party unwilling to negotiate . And in the unlikely event he DOES agree , then the Dying Stops .

  804. Clearly there is a Very good standard of Education in Russia . And the people actually look fairly Westernised . A Handsome bunch too . They deserve better leadership . A Range of Opinions , most actually Neutral , acknowledging Finland's right to make their OWN decision . Of course Finland is worried about what's going on . And TBH it surprises me that Sweden didn't join long ago .

  805. Across the Board . No . Don't hate the American People . And why would they ? People everywhere are basically the SAME . The Doctrines they are forced to Live Under , is where the Difference lies . I hope the Girl who outright said she Hates Putin doesn't " disappear " .

  807. Certainly correct that the War is what precipitated this Rebellion . Or RATHER , the total mismanagement of it by the Incumbent Leaders . To be BLUNT , putting aside the " Right or Wrong " of it , Pregosian is the only one that has told any TRUTH about what's going on . FACT . I actually BELIEVE him , that Shugoi is lying to Putin , and has been all along . As a Russian Nationalist , he has withdrawn , for now , so as to NOT kill Russians . Fun Fact : Belarus is a LOT closer to Moscow AND St Petersburg that Rostov-on-Don . This was ROUND 1 .

  809.  @ronaldov09  . YES , I do . The whole MASSIVE LIE that E.V's are a " Green Solution " . There is nothing Green about them . VERY resource heavy and virtually impossible to recycle , PLUS , the Electricity they run on is PRIMARILY produced by Coal and Gas . The whole Idea is a bit of EPA driven " Crackpottery " . Truly long distance Travel will still require Fossil or Sustainable Liquid Fuel for DECADES more , at least . And we haven't even discussed the Instability and Explosion risk involved with the Batteries , yet............... It's ALL a Fake , ill-informed Political Ploy/Agenda .

    1
  813. Electric Vehicles a re Fake Environmentalism . The Batteries themselves are an Environmental Disaster to produce and largely unrecyclable . AND , those Batteries are Charged primarily with Fossil Fuels anyway . The whole thing is just an exercise in " Moving Deckchairs " . Pure appeasement .

  815.  @sebastianbernardo9900  . Another Random poster that misses the Point . YES ! it was a demonstration . That is MOSTLY what Military Gamesmanship IS . This was a Group of Allies , but the REAL point is : " Hey , Ivan and Dong ! Your whatevers seem OK . Have you seen THIS?....................." . Gamesmanship . And ALL aircraft . ALL . get the Bugs washed off frequently if not daily .
    1
  816.  @sebastianbernardo9900  There is no indication of that i the Story . The particular Aircraft , 749 , was acknowledged as quicker than the others of it's Brethren . What is the Point on Intercepting a Spy Plane if you can't force it down ? Probably Not armed on the Concorde chase

  817. XR-729 must have been just one of those . A Freak . For no particular reason just Better than the rest . It happens .

  818. The Lightnings were a Remarkable aircraft . Kinda Ugly , Brute Force device . Did it's job better than nearly all others .

  819. Very Odd layout for sure , but clearly , from the shown Footage , it was REALLY quite good .

  820. F-15 and 18 are comparable to each other . F-16 not . F-20 was the nearest rival . Designed to lower Spec deliberately . Northrup gets Screwed again .

  821. Fugly indeed . Doesn't look like it should Fly at all .
    1
  822. I thought right from the start of that F-16 used Stock OR Saab Gripen new stock . Sweden also being another NEUTRAL nation . Also Saab are VERY amenable to assisting with set-up of infrastructure . Gripen is CHEAP to run and maintain AKA Swedish needs Also specifically designed for Short and Shitty Runways . And for widely distributed Single Plane and back-up crew . You can spread them WIDE and alone . Still within easy range of each other though . Mach-2 capable and well armed . Just a point of view , my Celtic Brothers .

  823. DIESEL-Punk . And Just Gorgeous . Barely Airworthy , but beautiful nonetheless .

  826. Another Victim of Unrealistic Expectations and Political Expediency . It FINALLY got the Griffon Engine it was design for , as per Specification from the Air Ministry . That was before the Griffon ACTUALLY EXISTED . martin/Baker got Torpedoed by the British Empire . And Baker payed with his LIFE !

  827. The Concept of " Stealth " and " Mach 6 " together is a Non-sequitur . Sonic Profile as big as Mt Everest .

  828. Considering the SHEER Complexity of a Helicopter's Rotor Hub , and these days , robust construction , I think there is nothing unsolvable to make this WORK . And an Emergency Default setting could probably allow it to GLIDE if needed . Potentially VERY Safe .

  833. We do have FLAT areas in Australia . Big Flat areas . We do get these type of Weathers , but not usually THAT big . Unusual terrain too . We call ours Dust Devils and Willie-Willies . Usually just a Nuisance . But that was a proper Category 1 Tornado . Damn . And the Nay-Sayers assure us the Weather isn't changing . Yeah , Right ! Our Twisters tend to be small because of the Latitude they happen in .

  834. NO ! Definitely no Ads for Prescription Drugs in Australia . Only un-scheduled Over-the-Counter stuff . Paracetamol or Ibuprofen Etc . Sales tax , Hmm . Australia Scrapped Sales tax quite a while ago . We now use " Goods and Services " Tax , Flat 10% across the board . UK = VAT . A Year is LINEAR time keeping , so 16th Day of the 9th Month of the Year of our Lord 2021 : 16/09/2021 , makes more sense . Why start in the middle ?

  836. All Holden's . First Grey car is an FB/EK , Yellow Car is the HQ - GTS 4-door Monaro , Bronze Wagon is a Commodore X-8 , an All-Wheel Drive Wagon . The Yellow VERY Old Car is an FX/FJ and the big Long Blue Car is a Statesman , Luxury semi-Limousine . In the States there , you salt roads in Winter I believe . Instant RUST . Coastal areas make rust too . Cars from Inland tend to be Less Rusty . Back in the day , we did NOT Dip panels , here . Europe EVERYONE does . Monaro's were 2-DOOR cars . Except for THIS MODEL here . I am assuming you don't Zinc Dip in the States either . Please STOP talking over people who are Describing their Vehicles features .
    1
  837. Australia needs Better Internet . Even where the People ARE it's generally Shit . Infrastructure is inadequate even where the revenue BASE is . Chrysler doesn't really exist here now . I personally have NEVER seen a Viper or Challenger or some such . And I am a retired Long-Haul Truckie . High Speed rail needs a Committed Track Build and , of course , The Actual Hardware . Normal Tracks are definitely not up to the Stresses involved for 320 km/h plus speeds . 200 mph . Needs sufficient demand within certain corridors . America could probably easily justify the Costs , but your ENTIRELY Free Enterprise system means no-one will commit to it . Australia can't really justify , Full Stop . Except for perhaps Sydney-Melbourne . The Infrastructure is Prohibitive on the Public Dollar , and anyone not provided service by it , would quite rightly say , why should MY tax Dollar pay for " Their " convenience when this Transport system is of no use whatsoever to me . I don't know why the U.S. didn't buy OUR Local Muscle Cars . The all handled better than yours . And Maybe we would still have GENUINE local product still if you had .
    1
  838. The Black Truck that you commented on @3:25 I think was an Old V-8 BENZ . Cab profile made me think so . America also does Loaded Truck Drags . But usually at a proper Dragstrip . Souped up stuff punching 1200 plus HP .

  839. Pretty sure Mercedes , MAN and SCANIA all have a similar system .

  840.  @dylanzrim3635  . Flat-Plane will not cause TWO to Fire at once . Just a different Cadence and Resonance .
    1
  841. Flat-plane is your NORMAL Inline 4 Crank . All 4 fire Separately and evenly . A Two-stroke Inline 4 will fire them in Pairs . Like a TZ-700 . The R-1 , with its Cross-plane Crank , is a " Big Bang " engine . Two Cylinders fire 90 degrees apart . Then 270 later , the OTHER two do the same . Leaves a slight Dead Spot each revolution that helps maintain Traction .
    1
  842. The Honda Valkyrie is a 1.8 litre FLAT 6 . The Sporty Model of the Current Goldwing Motor . The V-8 sound you are used to is , Yes , much lower Revs and usually with a Cross-Plane Crank . 90 degree throws . I think that is using a Flat-Plane Crank . 180 degree throws . Sounds somewhat like a V-8 Cosworth F1 Engine .

  843. Hahahaha . Dem 'Roos be like " Wut dis Shit Man " . BTW , I'm sure that's EXACTLY what they were thinking . 🤣. Not a nice environment for them . They have virtually no Body Fat .

They could smell the Bastards in SOUTH AMERICA . Yes . The other side of the Pacific Ocean . Snake just Chillin' in the Birdbath . Waiting for Delivery Dinner . Efficient . Smart as " F " .

  847.  @Savagetechie  . OK . Export Market I presume . Bonneted Trucks , other than Day-Cabs , don't really suit the European Infrastructure .
    1
  848.  @Savagetechie  . Based where ? It's a REALLY big conversion , because the Chassis layout is different between the two . The Cab-overs have 4-point airbags under them and the T cab only 2 and a pivot at the front end of the Cab , for starters .
    1
  849. I think the Only European Truck maker that still makes a Conventional Prime-Mover is Volvo , with their NL/NH series . Scania phased out their Bonneted Trucks a while back . I would love to hear if that is still correct in the Comments . Australian here . We have overall vehicle Length constraints here , but you can use WHATEVER you want here . We've got basically Everything here .

  850. Without having looked anything up , I think that sounds like a 12 rather than a 10 . Just a perception . Certainly sounds good , if straight up NUTS .
    1
  851. I think that was a V-6 Commo . The 8's are faster than that . I think most people would motor along there at between 140 and 160 km/h . 85 -100 mph . Above 160 vehicle dynamics change because of Aerodynamics . Needs to be LEARNED to be safe . car gets twitchy . I've gone 230 in a Car and 260 on a Bike . Professional Semi Driver , so better than most , and those speeds were BOTH too high to maintain without Dying .

  854. Diesel Cars come with significantly Up-Rated Starter Motors . Necessary because of the High Compression Ratio . And of course an appropriately Big Battery . Ian , if a Car has a Carburettor Of Course it isn't a Diesel . The Mini's are really a BMW , you know ? A lot of the Starting issues for the Diesels is , yes , perhaps a Glow or three out , but also Fuel Gelling . Anti-Gel is a good thing for winter months . The Lexus 450-D is fitted with the VD-J Landcruiser Diesel V-8 .

  856. A Uniquely Australian Vehicle . Because of Parts Commonality the Variations possible were virtually endless . The 5.0 Engine was the Original Design , a Stand Alone Australian , Clean Sheet build . Separated us from the G . M . ( Chevrolet ) products even though that was the Parent Company . The 4.2 was Sleeved Down on the Same Crank / Block . Slight Head changes , of course . Same Cam I believe . Good little Unit . No real Economy benefit . Back in my 20's A Mate of mine had a Sandman 4.2 . At the Time I owned a Chrysler by Chrysler 360 Auto , which got BETTER FUEL MILEAGE . I'm 62 now .

  857.  @zeedustrakok  . We have similar regulations for GENERAL Transport too . Those Over-mass Specialised Transport Dolly's have different parameters , for exactly the reason I said . Each Axle has double the number of Tyres and often enough they are actually Solid Tyres as well . Outrageous Load Limits .
    1
  858.  @zeedustrakok  . That Composite Transport Dolly would have 8 Tyres per axle you realise ? You can basically double the numbers you're thinking .

  860. The HQ Holden , was an New Style Body on an Old Style Chassis . They LOOKED really Cool . But underneath ? Shit . 3.3 litre , 202 cid push-rod , 6 cylinder engine . Bulletproof in this state of development . Three on the Tree gears quite often . Leaf Spring back end , Open Diffs , ETC . Pure Shit . ALL IDENTICAL . A GOOD one might turn 240 hp . Exciting Racing . Comes down to PREPARATION . That first wreck , a few of them did VERY well to avoid everything . These are OUR version of EARLY NASCAR . The Pieces of Shit that EVERYONE drove.................... Racing . Great Fun . Did you notice the Cut back Wall on the Bad Turn ? Looks like it is a KNOWN issue . Tough old cars .

  861. Ya gotta love the Circle work . On the way home from the Pub , of course . And that Fucking Mud-Carter ! Way out of his place . Tipper Drivers are COWBOYS . Stupid . Dangerous . And Irresponsible . The Guy making a U-turn at Lights in the B-Double ALMOST got it right . Needed to Nudge further Left coming in AND further into the Intersection . You asked about Camry's . Lots of Chinese buy them . I don't know if its the same There , but a Universal Truth around here is : Chinese Can't Drive for shit . As you saw , we have PLENTY of Dickhead Road Users .

  862. Mmmmm . NASCar . TOO much Power , not enough Brakes , Truck tyres and runs on Booze ! Good Old Boys go Racing in their Ridge-runner Specials . They DO make the " NOISE " though . No argument there .

  863. Hi Ian , Cheers from Oz . A LOT of places were actually built before the advent of B-Double Trucks , and the Land for an Extension area belongs to someone Else that has the SAME PROBLEM . Standard Semi Trucks have ZERO difficulty , but Doubles can struggle , depending on the Operator .

  865. That is actually the First I have ever heard of the Marree Man . Definitely there , on Google Maps . Similar to what is on the Plains of Cuzco . Peru . That SKULL . Oh dear God . A Fake surely . Let's hope so . Hieroglyphs are a HOAX I feel sure . Did you notice the Dickandballs Glyph ? That Castle is Super Cool . And yeah , Bloke who built it ? What a Boss . The " Horizontal Waterfalls " are cased by the SIZE of Equatorial Tides . Can be 20-30 metres between Low and High . Not kidding . Never BEEN to the Wave-Rock personally . YES Bucket-List item . The worlds BEST Presented Geo-Syncline . That Titanosaur must , I suppose , be related in some way to Brontosaurus and Diplodocus . The GIANT Quadrupeds . Hmmm . Gnomes . Lotsa begettin' and begattin' been happening there . Fruitful and Multiply . Must be Catholic Gnomes . I had ALWAYS wondered where that " Forest Ship Hulk " was . Now I know . The Embarrassing thing is : I LIVE IN SYDNEY . Never knew .

  869. Nissan Skyline was an All Wheel Drive in this Era . And some would have chosen Rain Tyres in these conditions , rather than Slicks . A few people have lost it on Conrod Straight over the Years . They can get Airborne over the Humps . Not what you want in these conditions . There have been resulting Fatalities unfortunately . The thing is , The Top is actually in Cloud and the Bottom can be in Sunshine . And Yes , Glenn Seton (correct spelling) was a TERRIFIC Driver . As good as any , ever .

  873.  @petersargeant1555  . I give Zero Fucks about the Specific Model . Vauxhall in Australia WAS HOLDEN . Daewoo is a Korean Knock-off of the Same Platform . And my Comment was about BADGE ENGINEERING , not specific Models . Every Car in the Video , except the R5 , had a " Shopping Trolley Model .

  874. Peugeot ( purr-geot) . The Little " Pug " 205 was a Mini Monster . Great little car . Had passive rear-wheel steering . And that XR-2 was a Rare and expensive model . Could come in Two Litre Turbo All wheel Drive configuration . Rocketship . And I have NEVER seen one of those Renault's " In the Flesh " . Wild Item . Looks like it was a Purpose built Rally Car platform .

  880. That was NOT a V-8 . Sounded like a Detroit Series 60 wound OPEN to me . Not particularly loud , because the Turbocharger swallows most of the Noise . These Big Dakar Trucks are incredible things . Based on Military Designs . REALLY FAST on Dirt/Sand . You should check out some of the TRULY BIG 8 x 8 Trucks . Four Axles . That KAMAZ was a 4 x 4 . And yep , around 10-11,000 kilograms .

  889. Update to previous comment . XA Hardtop . Cobra Spec . It was a 351 Cleveland . Had the 5.8 Badge on the Front wings . 302's had a 302 Decal in the same spot . Handled like BOAT really . The Red and White car was a Holden Commodore . Most likely 308 powered . And it is ALWAYS raining somewhere in Tasmania . English Climate there . Targa isn't a Circuit Race . More like a Rally . Sections of Public Road . Is Jack Squat related to Diddly Squat ? We tend to go with S F A here . Sweet F--k All .

  891.  @johnd8892  . Umm , I don't think there is any such thing as a 302 Cleveland . 351 and 302 Windsor yes , 302 was reliable in those 351 W , not so much . And Cleveland was a 351 , that WAS reliable . Cleveland MUCH stronger Architecture . Stronger wider Block , different Heads Etc .
    1
  892. That Ford XC - GT most likely had a 302 Windsor in it . Even the Cobra Model . Would need a look at the Front Wing for the Badge . They are NOT a small car for a Two-Door . 5 seats in there . May have still had Drum rear brakes back then . The Red and White sedan was an Early Commodore . VB or VC Model . Tasmania is VERY hilly and Very Temperate . Fog and Rain are ALWAYS present somewhere on that island . And Yes . Peter Brock died contesting one of these events . In a Ford Daytona . Shelby cobra with a Roof , basically .

  893. Lyrebirds are Real . Superb Mimics . Called Lyrebird because their Tail-feathers , when raised , look like a Lyre . An ancient type of Harp . Yeah , I know . LIAR-Bird . It's a Terrific Pun . The Only OTHER bird close to this Talent , is the African Grey Parrot . The BEST talkers . Drop-Bears are , sorta , true too . Koalas eat Eucalyptus leaves EXCLUSIVELY . Very Toxic , so they are always Stoned/Drunk , instead of dead . However , on occasion they can pass out and FALL OUT OF THEIR TREE . That usually is Fatal . Koala is our Native Arboreal " Teddy-BEAR " . Not at ALL Ursine however . A Marsupial . Pouch raised young , similar to the Kangaroo . Tree Kangaroo is probably a type of Wallaby . Wallabies "infest" certain specific habitats , according to Species . We are NOT talking sitting the very atop a Pine Tree , like a Christmas star . Up on the Branches of Mallee trees , to get off the ground .

  901. Our Coins ARE consecutive in SIZE , depending on the Metal they are made from . 5 , 10 . 20 and 50 are made from Cupro-Nickel (silver coins) Buy then the GOLD coloured coins are the problem . 1 Dollar is around the size of the 10 cent but thicker and different edge treatment . The 2 Dollar is the Oddball . Smaller than the One Dollar . Slightly larger than the 5 cent . But Quite THICK . And a Unique Edge treatment . Blind people have no issues . All our Notes are the same width but the Lengths are Specific to the Note . And they are all a Different easily discernible Colour . I assume the " Weird Birds " are Ibis . A Native abd Protected species . Foragers . We Fucked up their Habitat , so they came to the City to forage . Colloquially referred to as " Bin Chickens " . YEP ! English is VERY Fucked up .

  907. The Hitler Story . A New Political Party . The National Socialists . And Yes , he was Voted in Initially as the Prime Minister (equivalent) and LATER separately NOMINATED as The Next Chancellor by the Outgoing One , The Outgoing one was Dying . Chancellor was a Position for Life Equivalent to Monarch . Largely a Ceremonial Role . But also a Deciding Vote in the Event of Deadlocked Parliament . Hitler ended up with BOTH titles , by completely legitimate means . Unprecedented . Made a New Title for this instance . Fuehrer . Yes . That word . He actually GOT Germany GOING again . A Great Leader . Unfortunately , he was dying , Slowly , of Syphilis . A Common ailment of the Day . Syphilis makes the Sufferer go slowly Insane . So THAT is when the NAZI horror show started up . He COULD have been the Leader of the Century , instead of the most despised name in History . Fun Facts , Huh . Oh , BTW the word Fuehrer means , Father . ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charles Lindbergh was First SOLO effort .

  911. Hey there Ian . It's my understanding that the BRM's actually used an X-16 Layout . Specifically , Two Flat 8's , Siamesed together One above the other . Geared together into a Common Output Shaft . A much more Compact Package , but still HEAVY . BRM's were NOT renowned for reliability .

  913. Winton is Little Circuit in Regional Victoria . Middle of nowhere . All still Cat's , Detroit's or Cummins . But turned up to 2000 hp plus . The Euro Trucks also do this : Volvo , MAN . DAF , etc . The AMERICAN Trucks are Carriage builders and fit Proprietary engines from Caterpillar , Detroit or Cummins . Mack build their Own Engines . The European Trucks the name on the front builds EVERYTHING . Whole drivetrain . Japan same . Most of these Race trucks use a Tricked up Auto . Manual select , Auto shift . Usually Allison or ZF . Truck STEERING is Worm and Nut type . Power assisted . A standard " Working " Prime-mover/Tractor unit when Bobtail is as fast or Faster than most cars . 2 - 3,000 lb/ft of torque makes it so . They have most of the REAL weight down low , between the Chassis Rails . Handle remarkably well . The Cabs aren't that heavy and are Rubber Mounted . The Brakes are HUGE disc brakes . 16 inch diameter , 2 - 3 inches thick .Tyres are the problem . No such thing as REAL race tyres for a Truck .

  917. Those First car you were looking at WERE American Models , and called Falcon There . The Venetian Blind in the Rear window limited or Excluded the Sun shining in without Impeding Rear View much . The EB sedan was bigger than a Taurus . The XR-6 and 8 models had some Tickford flourishes to them . Not to be confused with the Early XR American Falcon . The MFP Yellow car is an XC Sedan . The BLACK Car was an XB-GT Coupe . The Blower was purely for Show . Did nothing but whiny noise .

  919. Bring back Whitworth..........................🤣. Or B.S. (British Standard) . The U.S. haven't adopted Metric because they're Pig-Headed . The Reality is , measuring systems don't matter in any way other than BEING CONSISTENT . But Metric is base 10 for everything . Very convenient . Also , Metric correlates Length , Volume and Weight . One Cubic Centimetre of PURE WATER = One Gram . 1000 cc's = 1 Litre & 1 Kilogram . 1000 litres = 1 Tonne /1000 Kilograms . Imperial Ton = 2240 lb . Imperial Mile is 1760 Yards or 5280 Feet and the Metric Tonne turns out to be almost the same . 1 kilogram = 2.204 pounds . 1 Mile = 1.601 Kilometres /1601 metres . Etc...........

  920. Oh WOW . A 911 Whale-Tail . The Sexiest Porsche . Back-heavy car prone to Understeer , so " Steering " with the Right Foot was a common way to compensate . No driver aids other than the Best Steering feel of the Day . As you can see here . Seems like this car had TOO much power .

  926. Kenworth 509 is CERTAINLY an Australian Domestic model . In fact , ANY of the Trucks with Triple Drive Axles are Australian made . The Triple Screw Volvo uses a Volvo Drivetrain , but a Locally Designed Chassis . Canada does have Triple Drives in Logging . Too WIDE for Public Roads . I am dead Against Autonomous Vehicles on PUBLIC Roads . In a Private , closed environment , OK , whatever . Good Luck with that .

  927. The difference between a REAL Hi-Lux and a Tacoma is the Platform . A Hi-Lux should have Live Axles front and Rear . Not independent Front . Over here , the Independent Front end was the Hi-Lux SR-5 build . Still an Off-Roader , but NOWHERE NEAR as capable . Suzuki Gimny is kinda like a Small L/R Defender or Series 3 . Good little Off-roader . SKODA I believe is from the Czech Republic . What you know as Saturn Cars , were PROBABLY Opel Cars re-badged . Opel is German General Motors . Vauxhall the British General Motors name . Fun Fact . The Australian Commodore was originally a borrowed design from Opel . Their Commissar model Sedan .

  934. The V-12 Jaguar Engines were NOT known for reliability . They are actually a Nightmare Engine to work on and Set Up . But FAST , when good . Team Walkinshaw did GREAT that day . The XJ-S was a fairly big car . Full 4-seater , 2 Door . Wide and Elegant .

  936.  @aussiefirie  . Two things here . One ; Using the SAME IRON Block re-sleeved , how is that going to save weight ? And Two ; They have to Ballast these cars to BE at Minimum Weight . However , I just did a Calculation and think you are RIGHT for the Wrong Reason . 308 Cubic Inches is actually 5.044 Litres . Exceeds the 5 litre limit . So re-sleeving to 304 would get them there .

  937. Engine , Aussie built 308 , Iron Block , Pushrods probably still on a Carburettor . 7,500 rpm . And that man ! Peter Brock won this Event 9 times . He was the HOLDEN guy .

  939.  @nedkelly9688  . You show your genuine ignorance . I NEVER said they were not LEGAL . Your big long nose Peterbilt and your Kenworth 909/950 Prime-movers are perfectly Legal in terms of Wheelbase , BUT , that size of Truck tends to be relegated to pulling 40 foot containers , when operating in URBAN areas . The Combination length is the problem . Easier to work around in Multi-Combination configurations . That was my point all along BTW . I used to see the RMS frequently checking Overall Length on those category of Prime-mover around the Port Area , when running Single trailers . A 20' +40' B-Double is just inside specs . A 32 Pallet B-Double is too long . Running such equipment around the City is uneconomic and not very profitable . Can be LEGALLY DONE , but not sensible to do so . The BIG GEAR is for the Bush . Road-Trains are easy enough to keep in Spec in terms of Length . Weight becomes the Major issue with those , hence all the Tri-axle Dollies and even Triple Drive Prime-Movers .

  941.  @nedkelly9688  . So post a Photo of the one YOU own then . I challenge you . Not a keyboard warrior , " Old Mate " , I'm someone who spent 34 years in Heavy Transport , in Australia , all over the place , doing anything and everything . I believe You to be the Keyboard Warrior , resorting to PERSONAL ABUSE to attempt to intimidate a Win in a Lost Argument . We clear on that ?
    1
  942.  @nedkelly9688  . You are Clearly misinterpreting the Regulations . Or is that deliberate , to try to win the argument ? A Rigid Vehicle has a Length Limit of 12.5 metres . Buses have up to 14.5 . However , the discussion here , involves Combination Overall Length . I am a Retired COMBINATION DRIVER . I certainly understand these regulations , quite well . On Private Land , any configuration desired can be used , but NOT on public roads . To make my point , A Rigid Truck can pull a Trailer , Pig or Dog , but must not exceed 19 metres in overall length in combination . Ergo . A LONG Prime-Mover is going to require a SHORT TRAILER to comply . Whereas , a Short Day-cab can pull a 48 footer and be under Max length . I used to run around in a Scania T-cab with integrated sleeper , pulling a 48 foot fridge with a Set Back Trailer Pin . Required a Permit . The Bullbar made the Vehicle 2 inches too long . THAT is how serious the " Powers that be " are , about these Dimension Regs . I would scrape under the wire pulling a 34 pallet B-double . And No problem with an A-Double . Highest that truck was rated for . Understand what I am " going on about " yet ?
    1
  943.  @nedkelly9688  . I never said that Peterbilt was NOT used in Australia . Just quite Rare . For 26 metre B-Double work using a 10 pallet A-trailer would certainly meet the Length specification . Especially with a 24 pallet B-trailer . For Single work they would likely be stuck using 20 pallet , 41 foot , Trailers to meet the 19 metre Specification . Fine as a Flatbed , but most Tautliners and Pans are 48 or 45 . That was why the Ford LTL's largely disappeared too .
    1
  944.  @Theyadayada  . Yep . Rare in Australia .

  945.  @chrisrabbitt  . OK . Thank you for the Video link . Sorry to get snarky , BUT , I have run into way too many people on this Platform that carry on like " Experts " until such time that you " 20 questions " , as it were , that the don't understand in the least , and they start Cussing you out for it . Call things like "f%&kwit" etc . I will ALWAYS reply in kind . Anyways , peace to you .
    1
  946.  @chrisrabbitt  . OK . Fair enough . However , I saw Only ONE 55 inch sleeper in the bunch and that was the Modern Integrated cab model . The rest were 36 or 48 inch , with Aero kits all pulling shorter Trailer types , to stay within length . I never said I disbelieved that Peterbilts were here , in Australia . Just being a retired Heavy Haul Trucker I do know a thing or two about the Size constraints . Anything to say in contradiction ? Any " Special Knowledge " ? They were all Nice Trucks . A couple of genuine Antiques , still working . Good .

  950.  @larrylongprong5219  . Big rigid , or a Prime-Mover ? PM would be restricted on Trailer Length to 41 ft type I would think . How big was the Sleeper on it ?
    1
  951.  @larrylongprong5219  . And WHERE was that ? The U.S.A. ?
    1
  952.  @stuarthancock571  . Kenwoth also assemble Conventional Trucks , locally , that MEET the Length restrictions . Peterbilt's VERY long Bonnet makes that difficult . Basically the same reason you rarely see a Ford LTL model these days either .

  953. Ayrton Senna is still arguably the Greatest of all . Yes , he was using a Gate-Shift in this car . Hell , he was still winning against Paddle-shifts , when they came along , using a Gate-Shift . Just a Straight Up Freak .

  954. Back in the days when Bathurst WAS a Country Loop Road , accessing Farms in the Hills . And the Cars WERE pretty well Identical to what was in the Showrooms for general Sale , to Joe Public . The Mini's were something else at the time . Even the 850's were quite quick and the Cooper S 's had 1275cc's under the Bonnet . High Power to Weight .

  955. You wont see those on Public Roads other than Exceptional circumstances . 3 metre Track Width . Would need Permitting similar to a Large Mobile Crane to be on Public Roads . I think it quite likely the Engines are MTU made .

  956. These Monster Waves tend to be along the Southern Coastline , facing the Southern Ocean . Check out some " Bell's Beach " footage .

  957. The ONLY Sauce to go on a Sausage Roll is Heinz or Rosella Tomato Sauce . Same for the Two Steak Pies . Lamb Pie , a dab of Mint Jelly . Your Tiny daughter is just ADORABLE . How old ? Bunnings " Sausage Sizzle " is an actual Sausage on bread or in a Small Breadroll . Some Small Bakeries , privately run , rather than Proprietary , are LEGENDARY for their sausage rolls . A REALLY good one is a Transcendental experience .

  959. I too have a Preference for Darker Chocolate . More an Adult option , since Cocoa is slightly bitter and sour . Lindt make the best commercial chocolate . Also Cocoa is the MOST Beneficial Ingredient in a Dietary sense . Lots of trace elements . So Darker is better .

  963. Ian , it's called the CHIMERA for a reason . Chimeras are RARER than Unicorns . And Much more dangerous . It has 6 Turbos in a Turbo-Compounding configuration . A MONSTER .

  964. Watched the Original . That windscreen FAILED COMPLETELY . Blew in and Popped the Rear screen too . DNF . The Old Girl surely SOUNDS good though .

  965.  @johnd8892  . Quite right . I have NO Idea why I typed Eastern creek . It IS Phillip Island . Never heard of the 215 .

  966. Mopar in Australia . 225 Slant 6 , 245 Hemi 6 , 265 Hemi 6 , 318 V-8 and 360 V-8 . OR , 3.7 , 4.0 , 4.3 , 5.3 and 5.9 Litres respectively . 360 almost 6.0 . There were a few 340's as well . Eastern Creek is an International Grand Prix Circuit in Southern Victoria . Google Maps can show you . The Bikes LOVE that circuit . You were right about the Lotus Cortina's . Blue and Silver car was an S model Valiant , 225 slant power . Some assorted Holden's as well .

  967. The Geography and Architecture are straight out of Brothers Grimm Fairy-tale's . Unicorns live there somewheres . And Dragons . I think the Creature on the Flag might be a Griffon or Gryphon if you prefer .

  968. Citroens are ALL quirky . They do stuff their own way , that's for sure . These Cars were a HUGE leap forward technologically . Ian , you should check out the Citroen XM . A later version, basically , of the Goddess , but they gave it some P O W E R .
    1
  969. IVECO at one time built the Powerstar Cabovers . Small , but ridiculously Powerful and FAST . They were FIATS . However , I agree with you .
    1
  970.  @Bigsoot7393  No . It will not . There are You-tube videos that address your allegation . That said , I personally , would prefer an North American Bonneted style Truck with 550/600 Detroit Power over anything else .
    1
  971. Personally prefer a Conventional Truck . Bonnet to Aim down the road . Even for " Round Town Clown " work there are Day-cab versions of Bonneted trucks . And there ARE also some Big Europeans doing Road-train work . The Volvo's and Scania's are actually the most powerful proprietary trucks in the world . 770 hp from the Factory . And up to 3000+ pound/feet of torque .
    1
  972.  @marvindebot3264  . Yep . Tri-Axles are RARE in the States .

  973. 🤣. Old Mate was rather Lost I reckon . I doubt it was a Type 9 . Those only run on Private sites , like Mines . Not on Public Roads .

  974. And from a quick look at YOUR page , you have Zero Clue about Heavy Vehicle Ops whatsoever .

  975.  @MrBopet  . If you take a REAL look , there are some situations YOU might not want to be in encountered . Quite a few videos on her site .

  976. This ended up being a VERY smart Tactical move . Brock was a GREAT Driver , Excellent PUBLIC persona . Apparently " difficultv" in private , however . Even being referred to as a C--t of a man more than once . TOO competitive . Mark Skaife , from a later time had something of the same Reputation .

  977.  @timjohnun4297  . So you know nothing of his Austin A-30 that he learned how to Race in ,or the 1972 Bathurst Torana XU-1 , a Six cylinder car or the Torana SLR-5000 , now a 5-litre V-8 , but only the TORANA , again , A9X .
    1
  978.  @audoinxr6372  . Cummins 19 litre . QSK ? Two ratings I last heard . 625 and 750 . Rural and Off Highway use only . ALWAYS in a Bonneted Truck . But , yeah . I have no idea where that Other Guy got the Idea that Cabovers were less powerful .
    1
  979. Those 6 trailer Mine Trucks are not called " The Centimetre " . Try CENTIPEDE . Yes there are Two of them . 24/7 . 750 hp and Power pack assisted trailers . A Cab-over design is NOT constrained on Power . Often Higher power . Bonneted trucks are popular mainly for being more Comfortable .

  980.  @miikahamalainen5343  . Yeah I already got it . Thanks for your unnecessary 2cents worth .
    1
  981.  @jokervienna6433  . So now you are saying there WAS somewhere in the site to turn around .
    1
  982.  @jokervienna6433  . OK . I get that last bit . Same here , except at Pine Gap or Woomera Military Areas . So you have WATCHED these Trucks reverse all the way out ? Or do they continue forward and out through a Different EXIT road . Otherwise you will end up with an Empty Truck coming IN to load ALSO having to reverse out because they came up behind a Loaded Truck reversing all that LONG way out , on this narrow , shitty Forestry Trail . Seems inefficient at BEST . And don't try to tell me that " Only the One Truck Services the Site " . That will not be true .

  983. Coolest Behemoth I ever saw was an OshKosh 10 x 10 . Looked like a Centipede crawling over stuff . The Zetros looks a LOT like the Sterling HN series Highway Trucks . Yes , handsome Units .

  984. The Mercedes' for this same period were Beautiful and Elegant as hell too . And The BMW's are always gorgeous . " Chermany " builds great cars . Can't be disputed . Just SERVICE THEM ON TIME and they CAN run forever .

  985. Never seen one of those " Penta-Todger " Sea-stars before . Hilarious . God having a " Bit of a Larf " . Firehawk . Evolved in a Country that has Frequent Bushfires . Bushfires are actually essential to quite a bit of the Native Flora . Emperor Penguin be like : " Guess I should have turned LEFT at Albuquerque......" . Poor Guy . He's probably doomed . That " Tree-Chair " ! Eat you heart out Miyagi.................
    1
  986. A bit of a Shame there were no " Feral " Utes . A Feral is a Utility or Flatbed , dressed up like a Prime-Mover . Full Bull-bar , Radio Antennas , Vertical Exhausts , Bull Lights and so forth . Usually Black . Inevitably , BIG V-8 powered .
    1
  987. Hahaha . Dow Nunder . The MALE Platypus is Venomous . HEY ! O . P . ! You talk over stuff TOO much ! Hungry Jacks used to have Different Menu to Burger King . Taco bell disappeared . Our " Mountains " would be considered " Foothills " in a LOT of places . Highest pimple is about 2200 metres . Mt Kosciusko . Big Red Kangaroos can be 8 feet tall . Eastern Greys about 6 feet . On Open Ground 50 mph is not unreasonable once they get their momentum up . And obstacles are few . Straight OVER .

  988.  @Shattered65  No . We do NOT . Nobody owns any part of Antarctica .

  989. The Track is Eastern Creek . The shortened track route . That style of Mini STARTED the Hot , Lightweight , 4 seater , trend . Originally B.M.C and later Leyland built . John Cooper helped them create the Cooper S . Colin Chapman already knew about " Adding Lightness " . The Lotus and Cosworth Guy . And Chapman's WIFE built on his Legacy after he died .

  990. No-one could TURN a Ball like Shane Warne . Too young to be gone too . 52 . A Larrikin . Crickets FIRST Rockstar . Popularised the Game way beyond where it was at before . And Rod Marsh the Best Wicket Keeper of all . And could " Bat a Bit " . R . I . P . Gentlemen .

  993. The Bundaberg you saw is Underproof Rum premix . Good shit that . There is an Overproof version too . Even BETTER shit . 4 and U fucked . Garn there , is your PERFECT BOGAN too , BTW . Raised in a caravan park , (trailer park to you) . Found his Dream Job just out of High School .

  994. I reckon the Food QUALITY is far superior too .
    1
  995. So , you say that " May Turn on Red " signage is a Carte' Blanche , just GO sign ? Absolves the Driver from taking some Care and Responsibility for the manoeuvre . Is that right ? OBVIOUSLY pedestrians crossing with a Green WALK sign have Right of Way .
    1
  996. When I first watched this I thought much the same as you . WTF ! , is the Tape Machine broken . Too Fast , not possible . 5 minutes , 19 and a half seconds around The Nurburgring is just incredible .

  1002. Tornadoes are only Possible at certain Latitudes AND require a Vast area of FLAT land to develop as well . Most of those Australian Tornadoes are actually Waterspouts , although we DO get what are called " Willy-Willy's in the Interior . Europe is FAR to Mountainous for tornadoes . That Victorian Car Registration is REAL .

  1003. 417 km/h is a shade over 260 mph . 417 divided by 1,601 times 1,000 . 1,601 metres to a mile conversion .

  1004. I know you can't say it Ian . But I can . Of late YouTube are just a " Pack of WOKE Cunts " . Cheers fron Australia .

  1005. Curried Sausages , One : need to be sliced up Thinner , and Two : cook today and then leave in the Fridge for two days BEFORE eating . SO GOOD . That Phone Scam would catch most people out . I had a Phone scammer one day , but , it Clicked . When I fired back that he was ASKING ME THINGS THAT SHOULD BE ON THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF HIM , because HE rang ME , and that screen is where the number is , He Hung Up . I reported the number to the REAL entity . That Screen Door on the Halloween House is Ampli-mesh . Those are VERY Strong . Considered a Security Flyscreen Door . Tim&Tom . Chinese Knock-Off product . Probably nothing wrong with them . And half the price . Also a Free Spy Satellite Linked silicon chip in every biscuit...........

  1007. Magpies are VERY territorial during Breeding season . Very sharp beak that CAN and DOES inflict bad injuries . I think the NO DRONE sign may be adjacent to a Nude Beach . Our Money is made out of Polymer . Machine Washable . LOL . To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius . Subtract 32 then Five Ninths of the Remainder . Celsius to Fahrenheit Nine Fifths and ADD 32 .

  1010. Semi doing a U-turn , 48 foot trailer . And in a VOLVO he , he Stuffed it UP . Should have gone around in one go . Very Agile Prime-Mover / Tractor Unit . What's with Camry's . They are Popular with the Chinese Community . You know the old tale that Chinese CANNOT drive ? IT IS TRUE . That Arsehole picking someone up Mid - Intersection . 🤬 . And if you talk to them , they say , I have been Driving for 40 years without an accident . At which point I would point to the TRAIL OF WRECKAGE behind them , and say " Oh , No ? " .

  1015.  @baldyhead . Pretty sure it was TOO BIG to be one of those . Did you miss the Funny Little Spoiler on the back that was PART of the Bodywork , like an SC430 has ?
    1
  1016. That " Cool Silver Car " was a Lexus SC 430 . The weird looking Trunk is actually were the Hardtop folds away to . The Broken Stop-line is automatically a " Give Way " indication . If it was Solid Line , that means " Stop " .
    1
  1017. These Courses . Astro-Turf Tee and Green . The Rest is Bunker and Rough . Hilarious . Yes that IS a checkpoint . Fruit Fly is an Issue for South Australia . Trees are Eucalypts adapted for Desert and Acacias , which are also found in South Africa . I am SURPRISED we don't have Saguaro Cactus here , by now . Kalgoorlie is Not particularly short of water . Near the Edge of the Great Artesian Basin , so there is virtually limitless water underground . Plants LOVE bore water .

  1020. Yes . Aluminium Body Panels from Day 1 . Production started shortly Post WW2 . 1948 . Steel was still a bit scarce but there was LITERAL Square Miles of Aircraft Alloy Skin material lying around . Produced to make Spitfires , Lancaster's and Beau-fighter's etc , from . I think the U.S. used the same material for " Aluminum Siding " on Houses . The big problem was , wherever Aluminium and Steel had to Meet Up , it created BAD Corrosion issues .

  1024. I think the Hilux's had a mixture of , 4-litre Lexus V8 , TRD 4-litre V-6 and Turbo 4's . Mini was a Turbo-Diesel . Little Bombardier a Turbo 3 . And the Trophy Truck things , Who knows ? Although the BLUE one about two/thirds through the Video had a LOTUS ELISE back end on it .🤣.

    1
  1027. A Job . ANY Job at all , is something that someone else needs done . As such , willingness to PERFORM that Job DESERVES proper compensation . End of Story . Ultimately that Worker is Selling the Time of their Life , that may well be spent Better doing something else . Needs to be WORTH their while . That Corporate Greed ethos that pervades there , is ALSO why your Education System sucks . An Agenda driven by the BIGGEST Lobbyists , Big Business . Gotta keep " The Masses " ignorant . ESSENTIAL ! If they wake up Armed Revolution will probably ensue .
    1
  1028. Nullabor quite literally means " No Tree " Plain . A good part of the Fuel price is the COST of getting it there , into the middle of nowhere . The big trucks have 1500 odd litres , or more , on board and drive straight across for the most part . Not many cars can . Motorcycles have to PLAN carefully . That Water is The Great Southern Ocean , and that was a Whale . Probably a Humpback or Southern Right .

  1029. It sounds like a Hot Ferrari V-12 . An upsized Formula 1 engine . The V-16s from the " Golden Era " sound best . Auto Unions and BRMs and the like . Don't get me wrong . Sounds great and Purposeful as F--k . But certainly not the Best Sounding .
    1
  1030. The Automatic Transmission thing . ANY " Worlds Dumbest Crook " video you see a Car-Jack in , and they then Flee the scene on Foot because they Jacked a MANUAL , is an America clip . Guaranteed . I believe knowing HOW to operate a Manual SHOULD be mandatory . It COULD save your life , potentially . The " Loud American " is something of a Truism . I am sure you HAVE heard the Saying before . Spain , Southern France , Southern Italy and Greece can get pretty Damn Hot . Not that far from North Africa really . Oh . The Cowboy Hat , Dollar Bills on his Belt Buckle , " We Don't Talk that Funny Talk " DICKHEAD . How Embarrassing for you , Ian . OMG .
    1
  1031. If you are looking for the Best Sounding , you have a BIG job ahead . Auto-Union , The Ferrari's . BRM . Cosworth V-8 . Hella long list to look thru .

  1037. It looked to me , that he only had a Power-Divider Lock . Three way Locks would would probably have helped there . Most European Tandem Drives use 3-way Locks because of Ice and Snow issues in their Home Market . Standard Equipment . Would make sense to Spec ALL Road-Train Prime-Movers with 3-way Locks . Well Done with the Salvage Boys . Didn't look like you had to split it up . Or was that Edited out ?

  1039. @olafkunert3714  So , in other words , their Auto Industry is building things or Parts of things that get Sold under SOMEONE ELSES BADGE . Yes ? Australia is in the same position these days . And we don't claim to have an Auto Industry any longer .
    1
  1040.  @Iam-mad  . Yeah , yeah . They are building OTHER PEOPLES DESIGNS under licence . Certainly , plenty of local Jobs , which is good , but nonetheless , not a genuine Domestic Car industry .

  1043.  @NavySeal2k  . A Kangaroo is unlikely to Kill you at 100 km/h . May well make a Write-Off out of your Car though . Depends on the Size of the 'Roo . A Tyre failure at 250 , on the other hand............................................................ 100 klicks is WELL within Easy Visual Range . 250 maybe not so much . Zero reaction time available at those speeds .
    1
  1044.  @anon17472  . Also in NSW . On MOTORWAYS and only when Posted . Nationally , in the absence of a Posted Speed , in an Unbuilt Up area , the General Speed Limit is 100 . State Regulatory signage CAN ascribe higher limits in designated areas .
    1
  1045. I suspect the Germans are FAR more serious about Driver Training than you there in the States . You lot consider a D/L a " Right " , whereas they treat it as a " Privilege " , which it IS . Everyone should consider a Drivers Licence a Privilege , earned for Merit . Australia used to have " De-Restrict " zones in remote areas . Sign looked like " Ghostbusters " minus the Ghost . Speeds shown from here on is Km/h . National General " Guideline " in such areas was 140-150 max . Highway Police had Discretion regarding regulation of this . Look Fast and SAFE , left alone . That changed when a " Cannonball " Event got run in the NT , and there was a VERY nasty accident at a Check-point . 5 fatalities . National Limit became 100 .

  1047. The Old Turbo-Star (Fiat) and Euro-Star (International-Acco) V-8s made the best sound . Better than ANY Scania , Cummins 903 or Cat 3408 . They went like F-CK too . Genuine 100 mph Trucks .

  1055.  @davidlean8674  . OK . Maybe . I live in the Country where that Incident occurred . A different State , though . The " Incident " was kinda funny , BUT , pretty damned serious too . Fact is , those COULD have been Federal Officers , BUT , they would simply Contain the Situation , and call for LOCAL Authorities to " Clean Up " . Police are Police are Police , but have different Jurisdictions .

  1057. Actually . Australian Police have an Item on their Person , that MUST be with them at ALL Times . It is called a Warrant Card . It is the Police Equivalent of a Military ID . Good Quality Mug-Shot , Date of birth , Rank , and Official SERVICE NUMBER . This Warrant card is the ACTUAL Item that " Warrants" them to act as a Police Officer . NOT the Badge . Citizens are required to Identify at any time to Police , by Law , and Police MUST ALSO present their Warrant Card , on Request , to any Citizen . This is worth knowing about .

  1058. Here in Australia , your " Average " Caravan is towed behind a Family Sedan/Station Wagon . There is the occasional 5th wheel rig . There are , of course , regulations to match the Towed Weight to a Vehicle SUITABLE to the Towed Mass . Australia we Pump and then Pay but the Pay at Pump option is available . Our Signage is fairly straightforward too . And , WE DRIVE ON THE CORRECT SIDE OF THE ROAD . lol .

  1064. Fun Fact . A Hurricane and a Cyclone spin in Opposite Directions . THAT is the Distinction in the name . TRUE . Opposed Coriolis Force . North vs South . Japan would call that same Storm a Typhoon . Again North Half of the Planet . Interesting . No idea about THAT distinction , other than Culture . Tick mark for YES . Cross Mark for NO .

  1065. The Light Bar was displaying Go LEFT arrows at the Prick Dawdling in the Fast Lane at the 2.00 mark . U-turns are permitted in Some circumstances . Too much to explain here .

  1067. F-1 could never run there due to lack of run-off areas . NASCar not either . Lack of Brakes . It's a great Motorcycle circuit however . Back in the Early 80's Bathurst WAS a bike meet , during Easter long weekend . One year the Police were VERY heavy handed . Started flipping Tents in the FAMILY area , off to the side of the Top Paddock . Out of the way . The Patch Clubs got involved and kicked them OUT . Basically War broke out . The Police barricaded themselves in their Compound . Shitting . Next year the Event was Permanently Cancelled as a result . N.S.W. Police , the best money could Buyyyyyyy .

  1069. Dr Zeuss , a Children's Book Author and Animator , played with THIS issue when I was a Kid . 62 yr old NOW . Story called " Green Eggs and Ham " . Yes , Zeuss IS spelt correctly . Story about PREJUDICES . Prejudices in GENERAL . SMOKED Salmon is Red , the rest is POSSIBLY Pink , more likely greyish white . And Apples come in a Myriad of colours , Never heard of Apple Green ? Actually , Oranges are Generally speaking GREEN on the Tree and Ripen to an Orange colour , once PICKED . Timing for Market crucial here . Small window . Food Dyes ARE common enough , but , honestly , the Less the Better . Most are really about Market presentation . Nothing more .

  1080.  @zeropoint546  . What's " Idiotic " about it ? I am betting your Bolt action takes .308 originally . Exact same Bore size . Your standard Automatics assault weapons take 7.62 or 5.56 and then there are the smaller Ingram or Uzi type weapons that use 9mm Pistol rounds . Standard or HP . Those specs don't PRECLUDE hunting rifles that also use such rounds , so your Logic , or lack there of , is back to front .

  1086.  @MatthewC137  . The Mall Crawlers have Lighter Chassis' , 4 wheel independent suspension which limits articulation and Ground clearance over obstacles . The Portal Axles have been deleted which ALSO reduces clearance . An OLD G-Wagen had a locking Centre and Rear diff and didn't depend on sophisticated Electronics for Traction . New ones are NOT vehicles I would even consider if I was going Really Remote . A fried Resistor or Capacitor could EASILY leave you " Right up Shit Creek " , and in danger of DYING out there . Land Rover have gone down the SAME idiot path . I blame the EPA for a lot of the B/S rigs being built now .

  1087. This is what Happens , when Austria builds a Land Rover . Yes , Austria . PCH was the Austrian builders badge . The New " Mall Crawlers " have VERY little in common with these " Old Girls " . Early ones were almost ALL diesels . There have been Heaps of different Engines in them . i-4's , I-5's , I-6's , a V-6 , V-8's and even a V-12 . Portal Axles on Solid diffs were offered on MANY Models . The New ones are 4 wheel Independent . Truly a Soft roader SUV .

And , of course , when Russia gets called up on the Carpet about Blowing Dams , they will claim those Dams were ALL on Russian Sovereign Territory . Sovereign by simply being OCCUPIED at the time . Ukraine blew one of the Dams IN THEIR OWN HOMELAND while defending Kyiv , will be the Justification . Wait and see . That WILL be the Orcs argument . Nothing surer . As to the Dam Collapsing because it was over-filled ? OK . Maybe . But RUSSIA DID THAT . They remain Culpable . Slava Ukraine . And Happy Birthday for the 9th Roman .

  1137.  @cmtwgrdk2748 . Here is a quote on the subject . Under socialism, the means of production are owned or controlled by the state for the benefit of all, an arrangement that is compatible with democracy and a peaceful transition from capitalism . Marxism justifies and predicts the emergence of a stateless and classless society without private property . Having Term Limits for the Head of State Role will prevent the Slide into Marxism .

Here is a Quote : Under socialism, the means of production are owned or controlled by the state for the benefit of all, an arrangement that is compatible with democracy and a peaceful transition from capitalism. Marxism justifies and predicts the emergence of a stateless and classless society without private property . The way to PREVENT the Communist Model from occurring is to Limit Terms in the Top Job . Similar to the U.S's two term Limit for Presidents . That prevents ONE Individual from seizing and Consolidating Absolute , Dictatorial Power . And spare me your ridiculous attempts at Insult . I suggest you inform YOURSELF better , OK . Oh , and what is with that creepy " Stalker " video on your channel ?

  1142.  @toddburgess5056  . Actually , if he backed out now he WOULD lose everything . Basically he can't . The populace of Russia would remove him , by any means necessary , from Office and string him up . But conversely , the devastation currently happening , lots of it due to ignoring upkeep on infrastructure to bankroll his " War-Chest " , will lead to a revolution anyway . Putin is FUCKED .

And having PUBLICALLY admitted the Sea-Mine scheme blocks THAT idea too . Yes , they ARE as dumb as Fuck , aren't they . Starving Families . In Russia . And the General that SPOKE UP about the problems ? INSTANTLY SACKED . I wonder if he has had a high fall yet........ That last Puppy clip was really Heart-warming . A Russian Soldier would be like .............. F O O D ! Unfortunately........... I do have sympathy for the NORMAL ORDINARY Russian People . Their Leader is totally Insane . A 7.62 headshot needed .

Jake remind , on a FREQUENT basis , all your Democrat Followers to Contact their Member or Senator EVERY couple of weeks to remind about Trumps Ploy to make " Border Security " into an Election tactic . This needs to be done all the way up to and past the Election . DO NOT LET PEOPLE FORGET . Politicians absolutely Depend on the Publics Short Memory's . Unfortunate , but TRUE .

However , I do think Europe would step up . Germany , France , Britain , Romania , Everyone . THIS SHITFIGHT IS NOT FAR FROM THEIR HOMES EITHER . Russia NEEDS to be stopped , once and for all . And IF the U,S,A. does break their " Deal " , then it could , Potentially , break NATO , since they will have proven that their " Word " (and signature , BTW) is worth absolutely No More than Russia's . Yes ? True ? U . S . Politics is a real MESS . Here in Australia we had a Political " Funding Blockage " , called Blocking Supply , some Decades ago . As a Result CHANGES were made to PREVENT Political Chicanery of that type COULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN . I " suggest " America does the same . After all , your Political System IS based on the Westminster System of Parliamentary Democracy , the same as ours . Former Commonwealth Colony . I think I may have commented here before about Fat , Complacent America . Safely untouchable in the Western Hemisphere . And the Rest of the World seems to be a " Myth " to a LOT of the Young People there , which is ridiculous and outrageous . I love your Work Jake , and really DO appreciate your efforts .

  1157.  @Davidcallard  . There is a Whole bunch of B/S you just said there . U.S. doesn't " Pay " any members to be a NATO member . They are all independent members , " encouraged " to contribute 2% of GDP to their Own Militaries . However , they still need to run their Country based on Available resources . The U.S. didn't " Win " the war , they did greatly contribute and Shorten it , though . The Election cycles are currently interfering with Everyone's ability to Move Forward . Stop believing the Trump Lies , Thanks .
    1
  1158.  @Davidcallard  . The U.S. DOES NOT " PAY " anyone directly to be in the NATO alliance . You are believing the Trump LIE . The Member States are ENCOURAGED to spend a certain amount of their GDP on Defence , bit it is Not obligatory , because after all , they still have to RUN their Own Country . Europe would have beaten Germany , but Russia would Not have done so , so we would be living in a different world now . It CAN be said that America hastened the Victory though , for sure . The U.S. had been " sitting on the fence " prior to Japan striking Pearl . There was even some considerable sympathies there for Hifler's Policies .

  1160.  @davyjones5509  . So you are actually Ukrainian ? I saw Cyrillic script and assumed Russian . So then , what was Lies initially . Ukraine won't harm any POW's , and they are actively FEEDING the Russian Civilians in the occupied areas , because Russia didn't bother . Nor are they impeding any Civilian who wishes to leave for the Interior . So what is the Problem ?
    1
  1161.  @davyjones5509 . So you are Ukrainian ? Cyrillic Alphabet made me Assume Russian . I have to use Translate to read your posts . Ukraine won't harm those captured Soldiers , and they are FEEDING the Civilians in the captured areas . I can't speak for their Fate after being exchanged back to Russia though . Putin will probably imprison the . " For Surrendering instead of Sacrificing themselves " for HIM .

How , precisely , is Ukraine supposed to Eject Russia from their Lands , if they are Disallowed from shooting across the Border ?

WAKE THE FUCK UP America .

  1186. Well maybe that will be because of the Support Guarantees they gave to Ukraine in return for SENDING THE NUKES BACK to Russia , and then " Welshing " on those guarantees for TOO Long and then actually undersupplying . A rather Russian way to do things , if you ask me .

  1194.  @vivrowe2763 . What's " Really Going On " , is that a Country that SHOULD be a Power Exporter is have " Brown Outs " due to Successive Incompetence in handling the Power Infrastructure , along with quite a few Other things too . Too much Pandering to Lobby Groups , Special Interest Groups (Cults) and playing " Popularity Politics " instead of PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE . Both of the Major Political Parties are EQUALLY GUILTY over this .

Being Vaccinated DOES NOT prevent being a Carrier BTW !

  1218.  @JOptional-m1w  . Harness the Moon Power , huh . 🤣. That's called Tidal Power generation . Hideously expensive for minimal returns . Yes , it's been tried already . Modern Fission Power Generation is actually quite Safe , can be built Transportable size and has Zero emissions . But , hey Bro , you just keep advocating to Forest clearing to build inefficient , CULT Driven pipe dreams . Solar does NOT provide 12 hours of strong power each day . 6 hours is going well . And wind is a Lottery . Anyway , why don't you saunter back to your Master , Brownout Bowen . Yep , I noticed that your account turned up the SAME DAY as his B/S rant . Do not reply to me this time . JUST GO AWAY , bot .

  1219.  @JOptional-m1w  . You're either an Idiot , OR a Troll . Harness the Moon . 🤣. You refuse to Listen to Facts . Caught in a Monomania over Greenwashing everything , even if that destroys our Society and Industrial base . Just GO AWAY .
    1
  1220.  @JOptional-m1w  . You're really good at Misconstruing and Projecting , aren't you ? To be quite Blunt Pal , I couldn't care less if they just kept using Coal AS LONG AS THEY PRODUCE STEAD , RELIABLE Baseload Power . I WOULD however PREFER that Coal was phased out as a Fuel source . It will , of course , always have Other Industrial uses though , regardless . It isn't me with " The Bone " , it's You . Solar Power is only effective for a Maximum of 20% of any given Day , and that assumes the Sun is Actually Shining , you know , No Clouds . And Wind is even Less dependable . Those can Never Hope to provide STABLE , Reliable Power for a First World , Industrialized Nation . We need something DEPENDABLE that Solar and Wind can be a Supplement to .
    1
  1221.  @JOptional-m1w  . You're really good at Misconstruing stuff , aren't you . Listen Pal , I don't honestly give a Flying F*ck if they keep using Coal , just as long as they Produce STABLE BASELOAD POWER . That said , I would PREFER that Coal as a Fuel Source was eliminated . Of course Coal will always remain necessary for Other Industrial processes , such as Steel production . It's You that has the " Hard On " for the unrealistic notion of " Renewables Only " being able to produce STABLE Power for an Industrialised , First World Country going into the Future . It CANNOT NOW , and is VERY unlikely to in ANY foreseeable future time . Some Facts for you : Solar Power only produces at Peak output for about 15-20% of any given day , MAXIMUM , assuming that the Sun IS actually shining . You know , no clouds . Wind Turbines , or rather , Winds in General are utterly unreliable . Based on everything I have stated above , I deem it Excellent Economic Sense to pursue Uranium Fueled Power generation , here in Australia . The the Power Plants are actually really Safe these days , and we have excellent Geological Stability . Earth tremors are RARE and Minor when they do happen . We have the Worlds third largest reserves of Uranium , that we already Sell to other Markets . It became obvious that you realised your Position was untenable when you decided to Use Insult rather than Rational Argument . I'm done with you . Good Bye .
    1
  1222.  @JOptional-m1w  . The Fukashima Event led to changes in the way the Plants are actually built . Far less likely to be a problem these days . Also , Japan built the Station ON TOP of a Geological Fault . Australia is a VERY geologically stable Continent . It's pretty clear to me that you are one of Albo's " Cheer Squad . No-one is against Renewable Energy ! However , YOU need to get it through your head that Renewables can NEVER be a Stable Baseload providing option . You are , in fact , advocating bulldozing Forests to Build Wind Farms or Solar Arrays . You know , Forests that actually RECYCLE CO2 out of the Air and produce Oxygen . Let's take a moment here to APPRECIATE just how Counter productive and , quite frankly , stupid that is .
    1
  1223.  @JOptional-m1w  . OK , I get you now . We have an advantage over Japan . We are Tectonically Stable . Also , as a result of Fukashima there were some changes made to the WAY a Uranium fueled Power Station is Built . And another Fun Fact . Compact Reactors are a Thing these days . Containerised and Road Transportable . So the Options are multiple . You still wish to advocate for KNOCKING DOWN THE FORESTS TO BUILD SOLAR FARMS AND WIND FARMS it would seem . Step away from the attempted " Scaremongering " , and get Online and Get some ACTUAL Information into you , rather than Fawn to the Rhetoric of the " Renewables Cult " . There is nothing whatever WRONG with Renewables , but they are absolutely NOT the Solution to our Long Term STABLE Power needs .
    1
  1224.  @JOptional-m1w  . And what's that ? " Now for something completely irrelevant " ? Uranium Power and Sun Power are both non Greenhouse , so I don't get what you are trying , poorly , to say .
    1
  1225.  @JOptional-m1w  . I am quite serious . There IS a type of Reactor that can use depleted Uranium 235 Fuel as its Own Energy source . The Waste from THIS reactor can actually go back to the Smelter plant making New Uranium from Ore . By all means , continue developing Solar Technology , but be aware that Solar will NEVER be adequate for Baseload Power generation . Only "Makes Power " for half the day . And that's the bit of the Day with LOW LOAD .

  1226.  @raptor9777  . Silly comment . Who's doing the Forest clearing and Who wants to use a different idea ? Well ?
    1
  1227.  @raptor9777  . I believe you should have put some THOUGHT into your Comment prior to making it . It is Dutton that wants the U-238 fuelled option , RATHER than Clear the Forests chasing a False narrative . Yes , Safe , Clean , Emission Free , New and Clear Power generation .
    1
  1228.  @raptor9777  . What a " Damn Fool " comment . It's Dutton that wants to use the Nuclear Energy Option , so the Forests DON'T need to be cleared . Please THINK in future , prior to commenting .

  1239. I personally believe Palestine SHOULD have their Own Section of Land . I don't support Terrorism , by ANY Actor , but Israel IS located on the Land that was once Palestine . These People , Israel and Palestine need to find Détente' , rather than attempting to Eradicate each other . Jew and Muslim alike should be allowed access to Jerusalem , which should be an Official Neutral Territory . The PRIME Provocateur in all this IS Iran I hope everyone realises .

Where are the S-500's & S-400's ? Meat-wave attacks in Golf Carts and on Motorcycles . Antique Tanks on the Field with Garden Sheds built on them . Russia is using Injured Troops as " Recon " sacrificials . Putin doesn't want to pay their Pensions . I guess . Actually , he probably CAN'T pay their pensions any more . If NATO actually went Active in this it would be Over in two weeks . Likely less . Russia - - - Second Military in the World , eh . What a Fucking Joke . There's your FACTS , Ivan .

Obviously it isn't possible to calculate " Your Stake " , but ALL Taxpayers/Paying Customers , combined actually OWN the stuff . A Business with No Customers fails and A Nation with no Tax base isn't a Nation .

  1310. Paul's RIGHT . The West is being as Weak as Water over this conflict . Especially the U.S. , who " Appointed " themselves the World Police a good while back now . The Latest Rhetoric out of U.S. Politics is to COMPLAIN about that . A situation that they caused themselves . Does that sound Familiar ?

  1320.  @ShadowBlack-vh5ed  . I am sure the War-crimes investigators have PLENTY of footage of maggoty " former " Russian's , just left where they fell , no longer " useful " to " The Great Leader " . There are also MORE than enough videotaped interviews with Russian P.O.W's to verify my earlier statement . The science is : Worms don't care who you Think you are . All just protein .
    1
  1321.  @ShadowBlack-vh5ed  . I think there have been MORE than sufficient reports , on videotape , FROM CAPTURED RUSSIAN SOLDIERS about the Worm Food thing . It isn't a thing that any Blogger is going to put on their Channel . Maggoty Bodies I mean . War-Crimes investigators , however , I think probably have LOTS of footage . We Good Now , Russobot ?

  1352.  @johnpjones1775  . Aren't the Marine Corp U.S. Naval Infantry ? A SEPARATE Service ? However , your point HERE is valid . As I have already mentioned Sailors do get Familiarised with a Standard Issue Long Arm and a Standard issue Sidearm , including a bit of Range time so they know how the Weapon feels in use . And most Warship Armouries carry enough Weapons to arm about Half to Two Thirds of the Ships company . This is a contingency for the EXACT scenario you described . Further , the Gunnery Sailors are ALL Expert Marksmen as PART of their Job Description . And if you have a couple of Divers onboard , THEY tend to be Trained Killers . Specialist Demolitions and Mine Clearing Operatives . NONE OF THIS MAKES ANY ONE OF THESE PEOPLE " Infantry " . EW is mainly to Confuse Enemy tracking systems and thereby " Misdirect " incoming Smart Ordnance or Used as an Offshore Assist for PROFESSIONAL Infantry and Armour and Air Assets onshore And Drone Op's are basically the same concept , though generally Naval Drones deal with Naval Issues . Navel EW is not a Poxy little " Hand-Held Gadget " , it is Half of a COUNTRY Crippling Powerful . And not in the Least " Portable " . So your Arguments a re Spurious .

The Communist States DO have an advantage in Industrialization because the Governments OWN virtually everything . Iran has the Same advantage . The U.S. is going to have to " Bite the Bullet " and DIRECTLY operate their Defense Industrial Complex , rather than Contracting out if they want to Keep Up .

  1365.  @marktsvetanov6038  . Ummmmmmm . Ukraine is CURRENTLY AT WAR , which prevents Admission to NATO , BECAUSE of Article 5 . That doesn't prevent them receiving Support FROM NATO members at a National Level . NATO isn't relevant to Individual National Policy decisions . So are you a MAGA/Trump supporter ? Trump surely doesn't seem to understand how NATO Actually works either . The U.S.A. didn't initiate NATO .

  1368.  @ItsReallyJackBlack  . Hah , not likely . It's you Russians that throw " Meat-wave " attacks and drive around on Battlefields in Golf Carts and Motorcycles , primarily because you've RUN OUT of Armored Personnel Carrier Vehicles . About 4:1 Russian /Ukrainian Loss Ratio . And up to 9:1 Equipment losses . And now why we discuss the Black Sea Fleet........

I do envision Thousands of Foreign , Non-Combatant , Specialist workers from around the World , along with their Equipment turning up to deal with the Catastrophe and Humanitarian problems caused by the Dam Breach . Of course accompanied by a HUGE contingent of U.N. Peace-keepers . This Act of Vlad's could turn into a gigantic D'OH ! moment . Here's hoping .

  1389. Hmmmmmmm . Paul , not every Backlash for an AMERICAN Misdeed is a legitimate thing to call " Cope " . Thumbs DOWN on this video for that . Disrespectful , regardless of this Rather Disgraceful Incident . U.S. " head-bagging " sucks too . The U.S. IS known for interfering in other Countries business , based on that Old " Mandate " Chestnut of " American Interests Foreign and Domestic " . Your Slanted-ness sometimes REALLY annoys me , and I'm sure I am not alone . A " fight " I think you picked here , again... I absolutely Support Ukraine and Abhor Israel's ways . As an Australian , we are a MAJOR U.S. ally , and rightly so . But sometimes the Attitude gets a " Bit Rich " , shall we say .

  1390. Yes . 21 or 22 even . It makes a HUGE difference , those couple of years . Also doesn't interfere with the ones that ARE pursuing Tertiary Education .

  1394.  @TCK-9  . Yep . The Erdogan problem I have mentioned Several times .
    1
  1395.  @braxon  . NATO is a Strategic Alliance , for mutual protection OF THE ALLIANCE MEMBERS . That is what " The Parties " means in the Article Statement . Remember that Turkey and Greece were added to NATO basically together in 1952 so clearly things were going well at that time . If , over time , two of the " Parties " develop a rift that's simply WHAT HAPPENED . It's between them . NATO will surely be CURRENTLY putting some Diplomatic pressure to settle the Matter . But at this point in time that's all that can be done . If Turkey WERE to withdraw from NATO , then sobeit . They would , of course , lose the " Umbrella " that NATO provides . However , NATO and BRICS membership are definitely NOT mutually excluding . One a Strategic Alliance , and the Other, an " Economic Community " . Only related in the vaguest of terms , those two . Erdogan is the Problem , of course .
    1
  1396.  @braxon . I never said they are ALLIES . Don't make shit up to suit your Narrative . They ARE both Member States of NATO . That changes the way Article 5 comes into play , is at all . Get THAT through your head please .
    1
  1397.  @Xio189 . Wrong about BRICS becoming the Premiere Economic Alliance / Bloc . Russia is all but Broke right now , and China are threading a Needle with runaway Hyperinflation . And those are the two " Big " players .

  1398.  @Xio189  . Well............it's not at all Obvious . There is a Probability ratio certainly , but absolutely no Guarantee .
    1
  1399.  @Xio189  . You're Correct about the Economic Alliance thing . And Wrong about it's future . Either way it definitely has nothing to do with NATO .
    1
  1400.  @braxon  . That is not what I said. However , They DO have the Right to Bicker without it being a NATO issue . A Few Skirmishes is No-one else's Business . If it turns into Full mobilisation , technically IT STILL ISN'T . I do think there WOULD be " Memo's from Head Office , though . NATO is a Strategic Alliance . It DOES NOT Over-ride the Sovereignty of any Member State . That's something the U.S. should remind themselves of Once in a While .

If he had more to say , he would have said it in his Post , so I doubt it . And your " The People have the Right to Know " stance is Fallacious and Self Entitled . Tell me , would You like your Medical or Social Security or Divorce Settlement Details to be out in the Public Domain ? Confidential Information . The ONLY Parties that can release that Information are YOU or A Court Order for release . I jumped on you because your " Query " was irrelevant and Intrusive . So where are You from Mr nameless Alias ?

  1410.  @SpartasEdge  . Having to abide Confidentiality does not include the Proscription of Indicating thus . That would , in some measure , preclude " Confidentiality " . It's not a thing that needs Explaining . Revelation is purely a Voluntary thing . Apparently Google is pulling out now . Slightly surprised it took this long . But I Do think the Russian PEOPLE do deserve access to " unfiltered " information . The " WHY'S " of a Company staying or leaving are entirely their own business , subject , obviously , to Espionage and Sedition Laws . Revelation is Purely Voluntary . So as to why would they Not say so is not for You OR Me to know .

  1419.  @slippinjimmy2569  . Actually , Putin HAS NOT declared an Official War and gone to a War economy , because he knows that would quite likely cost him his Place at the Top . He is Burning through his " War Chest " , accumulated over a VERY long time , rather than repairing DAMS and POWER GRIDS and SEWAGE SYSTEMS and WATER INFRASTRUCTURE of other kinds . Steam Heat etc . The Figures are Fake . Just wait and see . Ukraine IS on a War Economy , hence the deferment of Elections . Putin COULD have done the same to reman in Power , but chose not . He desperately needed a new " Mandate " so he could continue his War of Choice . The " De-Nazification " of a democratic Nation . There are far more obvious Nazi's in Russia . But then , Russia these days is NOT a Communist State . It's a Right Wing Dictatorship . Kinda the definition of Nazi .

  1421.  @yodieyuh . So , you're saying that the Russian Puppet administrations in Donetsk and Luhansk , both UKRAINIAN Sovereign Land , asked Putin to Invade , because the Ukrainian Citizens rose up to throw the Falsely Elected " Russian Puppet " President out of the Country . I have that correct , Yes ? Russia doing its Standard Playbook of " Land Acquisition " . In other words , spreading like a Fungus .
    1
  1422.  @yodieyuh . So you are complaining about a Russian Puppet being deposed , because the Citizens were tired of the FAKE elections , that were keeping said Puppet in power . Do I have that correct ?

  1423. 50 ? countries ? Russophile hyperbole . Ukraine is doing the Fighting , outmanned about 8 to 1 . A FEW Countries are SELLING them Bullets and Rockets . So , umm , Three Days was it ? For Russia to seize Ukraine ? 🤔🤭😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🙃😉🤣🤣🤣🤣.

  1431. Russo - terrorism ? So is there any NEWS today ? Seriously though , Russian Policy truly IS evil .

  1440. Sorry , I don't agree with you Paul . I have Zero Sympathy for that Chinese Idiot . " Stupid Games.....Stupid Prizes " .

  1441.  @erikreuterskiold5996  . Oh ! God forbid............🤣

  1442.  @loboxx337  . Well SHE would be a " Busy " girl , I reckon............... What , with trying to run her Only Fans Channel and all .
    1
  1443.  @ikarder  I hear Putin is looking for " A Few Good Men " . Go stick your hand up , Mr Unafraid .
    1
  1444.  @mrjerzheel  . A-10's are not that slow , and they are a Specialist Low Level Ground Support Aircraft , with a superior Loiter time . Quite well Armoured too . Faster than a Helo but not as fast as a Su-27 , and REALLY Agile .
    1
  1445. Some A-10's would change Everything . Slava Ukraine .
    1
  1446. I tend to think your Final Summation is the likely scenario . 16's not in the Air YET , but soon , and Ukraine is using Existing Assets more freely . Slava Ukrani .
    1
  1447.  @gordonspears6320  . For Some things they've done , Yes Indeed .
    1
  1448. Russian speak with Forked Tongue , Kemo-sabe' .
    1
  1449. If Memory serves me right , The Russian Troops in the Aggregate Plant were VDV . Russia decided to get them out because they're needed In Kursk . 🤣. Slava Ukraini .
    1
  1450. But Daddy Vlady , you still need to take Zaporhizhia City.......................... . Oh and you need Kherson back.......and Sudzha............
    1
  1451. Deer Plague ? So it's OK to shoot the Doe's now , Yes ?
    1
  1452.  @jonesmorendik . Now there's a stupid statement . Very LIMITED " Invite List " .
    1
  1453. Well think on this . Even if only 1 out of 10 is actually still functional , THAT IS STILL WAY MORE THAN ENOUGH . But Russia will not use them unless Moscow itself is in danger of Invasion . And perhaps not then either . Firing off even a " Small " Tactical N u k e would result in Direct Interdiction by the Other Nuclear Powers . No more Russia . And Putin knows this . He's Insane not Stupid . Also , he would get " Whacked " within a week .
    1
  1454. Braindead Militant Puppet Theocracies . YAY ! 😑🤪🙃🤬

  1455.  @andrewholdaway813  🥱
    1
  1456.  @andrewholdaway813  . OK . Suggest " Get Head out of..........Sand ."
    1
  1457.  @andrewholdaway813  . There are NOT What ? Shoddy looking bits ? Yeah , there really can be . And often are .
    1
  1458.  @andrewholdaway813  . And THAT is the Irrelevancy right there . Stand close to an F-18 of F-22 or whatever , when they are ON THE GROUND and you will notice that there are all sorts of shoddy LOOKING bits to those too . But beautiful in the Air AND Effective . Russia builds Pretty in the same metric , just not quite as Effective .
    1
  1459.  @andrewholdaway813  NOT Irrelevant . Russian . Appearances are everything , and Reality is to be Shunned and Silenced .
    1
  1460.  @andrewholdaway813  OK , I 'll rephrase . Make it Fast and Make it Pretty , IN THE SKY . I mean everything looks like shit after it's been BLOWN OUT OF THE SKY . True ?
    1
  1461. That's our Russia....... " Make it Fast and Make it Pretty . It doesn't need to do anything , just LOOK good " . 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🙃
    1
  1462. Russia is DEFINITELY NOT winning . And busily Genociding their OWN people in their Failure .
    1
  1463. Love your work on that........................
    1
  1464. Why would anyone tell you , Russian Spy ?
    1
  1465. All well and good , but this is Vladimir Putin speaking . He is not well considered where " The Truth " is concerned .
    1
  1466. What an " Ap-Pauling " segue for Strike Gum today . Good God . Trump is a Moron . It's plain to see . He also , in all honesty , should not be a Valid Candidate . Convicted Felon . More Charges pending .
    1
  1467.  @giovanni-ed7zq  . Yes . That IS correct .
    1
  1468.  @williammasselink  . How WHAT , specifically . I have made several comments on the thread .
    1
  1469.  @LunaticTheCat  . I fully agree . But , let's not forget WHO these people are . I will let their Actions speak .
    1
  1470.  @Marlene-ou5ol  . Nope . I expect a Caliphate to be established . It doesn't Automatically have to be Extremist/Jihadist however , We'll all just have to wait and see . Also , they have an opportunity to make peace between Suni and Shia , Let's hope they do .
    1
  1471.  @khairulrizal4422 . Then you just keep on living in that Hermetically Sealed Basement of yours . The REST of us will just get on with LIFE.............................
    1
  1472.  @PatrickKingJr  . Vladimir sees a Trump Ascension as his only REAL chance of winning .
    1
  1473.  @PatrickKingJr  . Nah , I seriously doubt it .
    1
  1474. Probably not much just yet . Other Governments are FAR too Leaky . Russia are VERY good at " Spy Stuff " .
    1
  1475.  @arturadamant  . Yep . That is the Deal with NATO Members . They CAN initiate Border " Disputes " with a Neighbour , BUT it is on their own head . And OF COURSE it's correct for that to be the case . In Fact , I think that Membership is actually Suspended during such actions . Suspended , NOT cancelled .
    1
  1476.  @daddad8707  . Yes , China is probably up for that . I agree .
    1
  1477.  @homonihil823  . Hmm , a Video Game , huh . Firstly , I am a 65 year old Ex-Serviceman of My Country , so I KNOW it Ain't no Video Game . So , Get Fucked , for that , Stig ! Secondly , if you read my Comment again , I made no suggestion that you SHOULD or would , I was simply correcting someone's mistaken idea that NATO membership would Prevent it . Not the same thing at all .
    1
  1478. They may be Elite Athletes , but when you think about it , they ARE Natural Born Thugs . Goes with the Territory , as they say......
    1
  1479.  @stpfs9281 . .....at Putin's Command.....yes . They TRY to .
    1
  1480. Not a Missile . They were digging a Well . Went perfectly .
    1
  1481. Way to go Putler . Push your Allies away . Maybe Orban might , perhaps , come to his senses now and Embrace the EU , NATO and their opposition to Putin's Russia . Stranger things have happened in the past .
    1
  1482. Putin : Launch a Tactical Nuke ! ......... Da Comrade President . So Boris , where are the Launch Codes ? ....... I don't know Vlad . Last I heard Navalny was keeping those for Safe keeping......................... It's my understanding that any Aggressive (non test) Practical use of a Tactical Nuclear Weapon would automatically be an Article5 trigger .
    1
  1483.  @igormihov6279  . S400 couldn't hit a BARN , let alone a moving Target .
    1
  1484. Well there are F-16's coming , last I heard . And I also heard they were offered some JAS-Gripen's , which would be IDEAL . But you're dead right . They MUST move soon .
    1
  1485. Thanks Paul . Whole thing is actually starting to be a BIT laughable . It WOULD be hilarious , if it wasn't so Bloody Serious .
    1
  1486. Daddy Vlady desperately doesn't want to call a " General Mobilisation " . He is aware that it WILL be the end for him .
    1
  1487. " Is China playing BOTH sides of the Ukrainian War , so that they come put on top ? " Come on Man........................... Of Course they are .
    1
  1488. Hmm . So doing your Duty as a Divisional Commander is now considered seditious , mutinous or treasonous . Russia is DOOMED under Putin .
    1
  1489. Paul , Sevastopol is in Crimea . Crimea is Ukrainian Territory . Illegally Annexed by Russia in 2014 . Only RUSSIA claims the area to be Russian . Everyone else recognises it as Ukraine . I am astonished at the DRIVEL I just heard come out of your mouth . Musk should stay OUT of Military matters .
    1
  1490. Well , the GOP had to write the Document to suit their Electorate . The document is a comment on the Standard of them , and they , of course , will be too dumb to perceive the implicit insult .
    1
  1491. It's taken France So Long to come around , but they are NOT fooling around Now . Slava Ukrani .
    1
  1492. This " Victory Plan " sounds like pretty High Level Statecraft actually . Paul , I suggest you " Read Up " on who the Five Eyes Nations are . Here's a clue . Italy , France and Germany are NOT part of that group . Being Ex-Military I expect MUCH better of you .
    1
  1493.  @EmperorFist323  . I agree with that . Even though he is a Pro-Russian POS , at least he is OUT there getting Mud on his Boots .
    1
  1494.  @MartinLundström-l4v  . So then , Off you go . Off to the Kremlin and tell that to Putin .
    1
  1495.  @vklnew9824  . Dunno . But since your Taste is in your Arse , you will be able to tell the rest of us after he plants his Size 14 up it . Yes ?
    1
  1496. News Flash Paul . The U.S.A. is not the ONLY Allegiant Country to supply Missile Systems to Ukraine . Other Actors DO have systems every bit as Good , if not better , than what America has supplied . Basically all your " Old Shit " . It's fine for you to be Partisan , but try acknowledging OTHER Players once in a while . Eh ? Slava Ukraini .
    1
  1497. Putin questioning the legitimacy of other leaders . Classic " Oh ! Look ! something shiny " tactic . So , Vladimir . How " Legitimate " can the election that just Re-Mandated YOU be considered ? Sorry , what's that Vlad ? Speak up ! I can't hear you for all the mumbling .
    1
  1498. Seriously , who is going to ACTUALLY BELIEVE Putin . This is just a Ploy for TIME .
    1
  1499.  @mattsmith-ri3lp  . Russia is NOT fighting NATO you clown . They are FAILING to invade The Ukraine .
    1
  1500.  @ASlopedRoof . Firstly , Putin will be Dead of Old Age in 18 years time . And Secondly , the Russian Economy will collapse way before then anyway . The Russian Federation will dissolve into Warring micro Nations .
    1
  1501. They Symptoms of a BADLY broken system . I share your anger over this .
    1
  1502.  @silentlamb2077 . Yeah , yeah ...... Russia is Totally SURROUNDED by NATO . Bullsh1t . Take a look at the map .......... and then stop spruiking Russian Propaganda , ya Dolt .
    1
  1503.  @mattolivier1835  . Jesus Christ , you know how to talk Total B/S don't you ? Ukraine never had a " Deal " with Russia not to join NATO , and they had no actual Intent to do so , UNTIL Russia invaded in Feb , 2022 . You better jog off back to the Kremlin , while they still HAVE a few Potatoes to Pay you with , you Dolt .
    1
  1504.  @mattolivier1835  . Here's the thing with all you just said in response to " Banana Republic " . RUSSIA CHOSE to start this war , based on a LIE . It is simple Conquest , not " Denazification " or any other such B/S . Oh , and they ARE going to lose . Economic disintegration early in the New Year is basically inevitable .
    1
  1505.  @Mad_Dog_of_the_Regime . What kind of a Clown are You ? Russia is about nothing other than " Public Perception " . Ukraine just want their Land back . Looks like they will Get It too .
    1
  1506. How did this Colonel actually GET to be a Colonel . He really does sound Dumb .
    1
  1507. This total C#%t should be Tried under the UCMJ . 40 years in Leavenworth , then discharged to face the Civil Charges involved . What a complete Piece of SH1T .
    1
  1508. That needs some Jail Time for the Principal protagonists . Yet another American " thinking with his dick " .
    1
  1509. Because Pagers work off the Phone system , a simple " Command " can have done this . There are past instances of Malicious Attacks on Individuals using this idea . A Line of Code to the OS and Battery go Boom .
    1
  1510. However , they LOVE their Bradley's . SEND MORE .
    1
  1511. General Rule to live by . Whatever Russia says is happening , the Opposite is the Truth .
    1
  1512. Hell NOoooo !
    1
  1513. Russia might be willing to " Negotiate " huh . And Ukraine needs to say FUCK NO , here's OUR negotiation . GET THE FUCK OFF OUR LAND . That means Crimea , Donetsk , Luhansk and Zaporhizia . All of it . Just GET the FUCK O U T .
    1
  1514. You're kidding . Right ? Putin's Napoleon Complex has been activated for DECADES .
    1
  1515. Yeah , you cope harder buddy . Avdiivka to where Russia is now was quicker than any other advance by either side ? 🤣🤣🤣. Um , No .
    1
  1516.  @major685  . I don't know about Invincible , but certainly far Less Vincible than the Russians . The Ukrainians are simply Well Trained and Motivated Soldiers fighting for a Totally JUST cause . Repulsion of the Illegal Russian presence in their Homeland .
    1
  1517.  @OleDiaBole  . Helo ? As in Helicopter ? HeLLo is the word , Boris . Two " L " s . So anyway , to the Point . Do you think that Russian Forces belong on Ukrainian Sovereign Soil ? Because they most assuredly Do NOT .
    1
  1518.  @blenderoffender9004  . Let's see what you have to say in Three Days time.................. You'll claim that GOD must have struck down the Noble Russian Patriots .
    1
  1519. I think the Layers may be a bit deeper . Iran is ALSO helping out their " Buddy " Vladimir Putin here . By " rolling a grenade " into the U.S. electoral shitfight . Partisanship may help Trump in the fallout from this .
    1
  1520.  @TyllerBoom  Ever heard of OPSEC ? Understand the Concept ? Y or N ? And as to Trump , the ongoing investigation is obviously GOING to be confidential . Even he , is still entitled to The Presumption of Innocence , DURING the Process .
    1
  1521.  @TyllerBoom  . Why would you FOREWARN Russia about ANYTHING whatsoever ? You understand the concept OPSEC ? Yes or No ? And I feel SURE that the FBI is till digging into " Diaper Don's " misdeeds . The Ukrainian Plan WILL be divulged to those who " NEED TO KNOW " . We are not on that list . Too many " Leaks " in the Public Domain . And the FBI will NOT be making their findings Public UNTIL the Appropriate Time . No Investigation , from Local Law all the way through to CIA Black Ops , is EVER SPOKEN ABOUT WHILE THAT INVESTIGATION REMAINS CURRENT . You know that right ? Again Yes or No ? And also , at the End of the Day , even Trump is entitled to the " Presumption of Innocence " enshrined in the Process .
    1
  1522.  @TyllerBoom  . OPSEC on the Ukrainian " Plan " is for purpose , Buddy . Sometimes it really DOESN'T pay to Advertise . Because , Yes , why prewarn Russia of ANYTHING . And the FBI's delving into Diaper Donald's misdeeds is undoubtedly ongoing . As we know any and ALL Active Investigations , by ANY agency from Local Law to CIA Black OP's , are kept under a Veil of Secrecy . Until the APPROPRIATE time . Even HE has the Right to " The Presumption of Innocence " . True ? Only those who DO " need to know " get hooked up in EITHER Case .
    1
  1523.  @TyllerBoom  . Probably not that much really .
    1
  1524.  @drewmalesky9869  . Nope . DI-vulging the Plan to those who NEED TO KNOW is part of the Plan . You do NOT need to know . Nor do I . And I unlike you , am happy to MIND MY OWN BUSINESS .
    1
  1525.  @chozer1  . You clearly have NO IDEA what Operational Security means .
    1
  1526.  @chozer1 . You're Dumb . Clearly have no idea how that works .
    1
  1527.  @vashmatrix5769 . YOU Sir , are an Idiot . Really , Truly .
    1
  1528. We can only hope . Go Team Carcinoma .
    1
  1529. The F-16 photo is a CONFIRMED Fake . Yes the Jets ARE coming , but that is Photo Shopped .
    1
  1530. I think Ukraine's position is that , Russia , under the SAME leader has RE-initiated Imperialistic theft of Territory , so THIS TIME we take ALL of it back . And Putin's annexation of those 4 regions , while not ACTUALLY controlling them , is to justify the use of Tactical Nuclear Weapons . Or Worse .
    1
  1531. It's a Finnish Extremist Splinter Group .
    1
  1532.  @BladeAustralia  . You mean , When they Do .

  1533. @Woodchipper King . We'll see . Wont we .

  1534.  @JustMe-gn6yf  . One Lane is Impassable .
    1
  1535.  @josephboehmer1245  . NAZI Ukraine you say ? With a Jewish President ? You're a Clown and a Troll .
    1
  1536. That is NOT a "LOOP" . That is a Half Immelmann turn . Still quite impressive in a Plane that size .
    1
  1537. I remember this Case . He reached across the Car to shoot her through the Other Officers window . Blatant Murder really . So 12.5 yrs in Correctional ? Does he gets 50% trade discount or something ?
    1
  1538. What's Up , Russian Dude ? . That was a Pretty Shitty Episode in your Life . Was there a Russian Consulate anywhere Nearby enough to where you were at the time ?
    1
  1539. I think , if things remain as they CURRENTLY are , Russia EVENTUALLY wins . BUT , if Ukrainian Support for Bullets and Artillery Shells becomes Stable and they receive some Really Long Range " Metal Cylinders " as well as getting those F-16s into the Air , then they will very Likely push Russia Out .
    1
  1540. That " Haircut reminded me of : 1 , Roly Poly Man and : 2 , Norman Gunston . You WOULD think that Russia has Friend or Foe Transponders . Apparently not................
    1
  1541.  @MacedonianChristian  . Your " Mindset " basically says it all . I notice that I am not the ONLY one that thinks that either .
    1
  1542. If you don't have the Brains to comprehend the INFORMATION presented here , maybe you should just watch a Die-Hard Movie .
    1
  1543.  @hartyewh1 . You overlook the fact that Disagreeing/Criticising the " War " is now a Jail-able offence . Pretty sure the Poll would be different if people said what they REALLY think .
    1
  1544.  @hartyewh1 . Of course they can Bypass the Blocks , IF they know how . Russia absolutely DEPENDS on controlling the Media Narrative .
    1
  1545. Sorry for your Loss there , Mate . I hold ZERO animosity whatever , for the Normal , ordinary Russian People , and never did at ANY time during this whole Debacle . They ARE just ordinary people exactly like Any or Every-One Else . I talk On-Line to a couple of Russian people I have known for a LONG time . Only ONE Russian I actually H A T E . Guess who............. He's been a " Loose Cannon " Politically since he came to Power . Megalomania . I want him DEAD .
    1
  1546.  @LordGadwin . And what happened immediately After that War ? There's the " Rub " , right there .
    1
  1547.  @MartinLundström-l4v  . Yep , I reckon you Are .
    1
  1548.  @harryhewitt6795  . I realise that . Harder though . BUT , it is a SYMBOLIC thing we are talking about . The Mighty Kerch Bridge being little better than a ROPE BRIDGE . And soon to be Obliterated .
    1
  1549. Congratulations Good Sir .
    1
  1550. Well said Mate . All True .
    1
  1551. Mmmm . S A R M A T . The Doomsday " Well Digger " . Nice deep , straight Hole . T - 14 , too heavy to Tow away , when it inevitably breaks down . Just like the ONLY one that's ever been seen .
    1
  1552. Whom ? Kadyrov or Putin ? I ask , because Putin is a Dwarf .
    1
  1553. Well let's be honest . Big Sergei there @0:55 could do with getting FIT again , couldn't he ? 🤣🤣.
    1
  1554.  @yellowtunes2756 . So how many people fled Russia as a Result of " Mad Vlad's " invasion ? . More I would think . The 100s of 1000s deaths are on the Russian side Ukraine hasn't reached 100.000 yet . And Russia is not too far from Economic collapse . The " prosperity " figures are being artificially generated to Hide the Truth , in TYPICAL Russian fashion . The END will come Very quickly . PUTIN , and Putin alone is the Responsible person for ALL of this Tragedy . He is trying to destroy One Country and IS effectively destroying his Own Country , all for the sake of being seen as a " Strongman Leader " . Narcissistic Psychopath . Worst case of " Short Man Syndrome " since Napoleon . Maybe worse even .
    1
  1555. Just a little point . Ukraine does not require U.S. "approval " to counter attack . Regardless of Logistical assistance , this is NOT a U.S./NATO operation .
    1
  1556. Good for You , Mate ! This kind of Shit CAN also happen in Western Universities . However , if you make Copies and recordings of events , there is an Appeal Process available that can have consequences for the Examiners .
    1
  1557. Putinivsky ? St Putinsburg ? Putisgrad ?Putinoyarsk ? Ah ! Putinivka ! Yes that one .
    1
  1558. Pretty clear situation going on with Ukraine Leadership . The Chief Warrior wants to Wage WAR on the Enemy . and....... The Politician fears making a truly Unpopular choice by letting him Do So . Slava Ukraine .
    1
  1559. YouTube is VERY busily doing exactly this to quite a Few Creators . They are MAGA supporters . Trump-ists . A Known FACT .
    1
  1560.  @GalAxy-u9s  . No . The " Madman " is Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin . Poor old Sleepy Joe is waiting to retire currently , and Volodimir Zelensky is busily trying to " Evict " the Madman mentioned above . We all Clear on that now ?
    1
  1561.  @Afura33 . So whom do you refer to with that " Paid with their Life " statement ? Russian Meat-wave Automata ? Ukrainian Defenders ? Both ? Or the Foreign " Contractors " that were duped into being Meat-Wave soldiers for Putler's War of Choice ?
    1
  1562.  @mittenil2972  . Not true . A Fair Majority of BOTH Parties support Ukraine Aid . It's only the Lunatic Zombie Fringe of the Republican Party , following their God , that object .
    1
  1563. YT really have their Heads up their own Arses of late . Getting to be SO Fucking annoying . No Shit .
    1
  1564.  @minecraftfox4384  . Yep Competent . The GOP are Brain Dead Cultists , following a Self Proclaimed Demi-God that happens to be a Convicted Felon . And there are MORE convictions coming . Dullards following a Demagogue .

  1565.  @JohnSmith-fl6qd  My Mother is 25 years dead . Died at 81 . Give my regards to Yours , Eh . You F/W .
    1
  1566.  @rogerrussell9544  . WTF ! ? I never commented on your 80 - 85 y/o post at all . I did ask a " Now Nameless " poster about their Comment involving Jake Sullivan . Was that You as well ? Because I stick by my statement that it was " Damn Fool " thing to say .
    1
  1567.  @rogerrussell9544  . To who's Humour do you refer ?
    1
  1568. Well there's a silly thing to say . WTF does Jake Sullivan have to do with Putler's " Command Decisions " ?
    1
  1569. ? ? ? What the fuck has Jake Sullivan got to do with Putin's Policy decisions ? What a silly statement .
    1
  1570.  @MartinLundström-l4v  . Won't happen .
    1
  1571. This all was obviously going to happen eventually . A Palace built of Lies is certainly NOT a Citadel .
    1
  1572. Absolutely Correct . Also , YouTubes ownership are MAGA/Trump supporters , BTW .
    1
  1573.  @Canofasahi  . RFU is basically GONE actually . All sites taken down and deleted .
    1
  1574. I have to presume you are U.S. American . You think the Whole World needs Your Permission for everything . F/O .
    1
  1575. The Muscovites have ALWAYS had only ONE thought in their Tiny Minds...................M O R E . The concept of Sufficient is totally alien to them . Everyone ELSE'S fields are always " Greener " .
    1
  1576. Amen to that . Nonetheless , Russia DOES need to be repelled from Ukraine . If they aren't , they will have Overtures and Delusions of Grandeur that they can do the same to others . The Baltics , The Balkans , Hungary , Slovakia , Poland , Czechia etc etc etc . They won't stop until ACTUALLY STOPPED .
    1
  1577.  @Jimmy-ye3wg  . The Fact that those " Mushroom Clouds " haven't happened is the ONLY reason Putin is still with us , in the Mortal Coil . One " Cloud " = inside a week .
    1
  1578. VERY convenient that the Peopagandists forgot that Ukraine had STOPPED them short of Kyiv BY THEMSELVES . And pushed them straight back to where the Current Front Lines are . They haven't really moved HUGELY since . Just incrementally . No-one was helping back then .
    1
  1579. That Russian Officer DEFINITELY needs to go to " Fat Club " . Weight reduction program that MOST militaries run . Sounds like Ukraine has sent the equivalent of " Rangers " into Avdivka .
    1
  1580. Russian " Peace " negotiations . Sign your Country over to us in toto so we can stop trying to violently STEAL it .
    1
  1581. The fact that You have the Attention Span of a Goldfish is a YOU problem . No-one else's . Just don't watch , rather than Whine .
    1
  1582.  @MartinLundström-l4v  . Yea............well probably that too . I can't think of a BETTER reason for Revolution . Can you ?
    1
  1583. Not long now . Revolution in Russia .

  1587. You're on the Payroll of a Lunatic , Dmitry . Cope Harder , comrade .

  1588.  @deltacx1059  . Tend to agree . The U.S. cannot afford to let Russia actually collapse . But nor can they actually Support their actions in this conflict .

  1590.  @omegaz3393  . I never said Pearl Harbour , Hawaii was a STATE . I said it was the only bit of U.S. TERRITORY aka Home Soil BOMBED . You should learn to read . Point being , of course , that the U.S. got it pretty easy in WW2 compared to Europe . You should have read the REST of that thread for some Context , prior to shooting off your mouth .
    1
  1591.  @omegaz3393  . I did NOT say that Pearl Harbour , Hawaii , was a State . I did say that it was U.S. territory . Clean your Glasses , and check your facts before having an Inaccurate Rant . Next Time . Also , as an Australian , I really couldn't care less about historical STATUS of the Regions of the U.S. My POINT was the U.S. got sweet F A in the way of direct attacks on the Home Soil . But you it would seem , are too dumb to realise that . Shot your mouth off without checking CONTEXT .

  1592.  @Lol-uf4xl  . Surely the U.S. brought Industrial Might , to the Fight . No doubt there . They had the Luxury of not getting their Facilities Bombed every night . No disruptions . The Americans daylight bombed and the British Night bombed . And did things like the Dambuster Raids . I guess the U.S. equivalent to that would be the Doolittle Raids . B-25's off Carriers ! Damn ! I think the Brits probably get the nod for some of the Precision strikes , with Beaufighters and Mosquito's . Yeah , there's a LOT to go through for that Conflict . U.S Marines and their Grit vs British Commandoes and their Audacity . I still think Germany would have ultimately lost , for the reason I mentioned earlier . Although Russia WAS getting " Handed their Arse " , the Germans were NOT outfitted to deal with the RUSSIAN winter . Germany can get cold , yes , but not like Russia does . They WOULD have faltered in the East .
    1
  1593.  @Lol-uf4xl  . Uncle Adolf had kinda hit the Wall at that point . Running into the Same Issues Mad Vlad has right now . It would certainly have taken longer , but Germany still would have lost . Modern Russia would have been a different place though . No Doubt about that .

  1597. Absolutely correct . The West has become complacent , and are being REALLY slow to Wake Up .

  1598. I don't think anyone believes that the Russian People are Universally Evil . Just the Lying , Cheating , Narcissistic , Megalomaniacal Psychopath RUNNING the place . And his bought and paid for Cronies .

  1605.  @yellowtunes2756 . Russia will run out of Money fairly soon . Saudi Arabia is about to REALLY Open the Taps , so Fuel Prices will TANK . China will stop helping soon too , rather than get their Economy Tanked . China is an Ally of CONVENIENCE . Convenience for China . They haven't DOMATED anything to Russia , they have SOLD it to them . That Trade will END , in favour of Western Markets . You just watch , Buddy . And don't even talk about Nth Korea . The Hermit Kingdom . One of the POOREST Countries in the World .

  1627. Are you KIDDING ? A Copywrite Claim for what was on the Radio ? How Pompous and self important can someone get . Fucking Hilarious . I think you were drilling too High an RPM on the biggest drill bit initially . Glazed the cutting edge tips . That said , What a CHORE indeed . Everything is Seized in . Problem from Factory ? No assembly grease ? Tiny dab of Never-seize goes a long way .

  1632. Initial Symptom sounded EXACTLY like Master Cylinder leaking back internally . Lots of Beach Driving ? And never washes down after . The Rust on EVERYTHING under the Car is going to become a BIG problem . Curious here . DOES MODERN BRAKE FLUID STIILL DESTROY PAINT FINISHES ? I noticed you used DOT3 . The old Green stuff destroyed paint .

  1633. Restoring Full pressure back in the System , Could potentially seat the Seal properly again . No knowing for a few days on that .

  1634. 😂. Yes , your Nuts need Shaving and Talcum Powdering once a Fortnight . Those Chrome Caps on the Lug-nuts should be simple " Dress covers " . Removed with screwdriver or pliers BEFORE rattling the Real Nut . Heavy Vehicle style . The Snap-On Warranty thing is Excellent . That is THEM standing behind their Product . Confident AND Confidence inspiring . 10 points . There is something really Satisfying about the Torque Wrench things , huh . Old Marine Engineer here . That Last Click says , OK , That's DONE .

  1635. Jesus Christ ! Wow . Who put those on ? A Heavy Truck wheel service-centre ? Wheel Nuts get hot and can be Difficult sometimes , sure . But , just Wow .
    1
  1636. Surprised that there is NO DRAIN PLUG in the Diff housing . The Oil that came out looked Good .
    1
  1637. My read of that is : Pistons DON'T interfere with the Valves but the Valves CAN hit each other . That Timing Belt stripped at the Crank BUT was still Tensioned . Ergo the Cams were still correctly timed to EACH OTHER . That Engine simply needed a Belt . 99.99994% . It was CERTAINLY worth the Smoke Test .

  1652. Excellent Diagnosing . No Assumptions made . Those Bloody PLUGS . Attention to detail is essential . Must go Click . Customer should hand Your Invoice for Diag/Repair to whoever replaced the Crank Sensor . A " Be Thorough next time " message .
    1
  1653. I have NEVER seen Plugs so badly eroded and STILL WORKING . The Core must have been about gone too .
    1
  1654. Those Spark-Plug Tubes are a Design Improvement . Those wont fill up with Oil like the Old arrangement . Those Oilseal Plugs are a Common Leak point in Overhead Cam engines . A real nuisance .

  1655. Just one of those things . You dealt with it the Right way . Better to keep good faith and get return Custom . I hope you advised them to , perhaps , expect other coil failures .

  1656.  @Nick-ue7iw  . Neoprene .

  1657. If the Customer is LUCKY that is a Head-gasket and hopefully the Damage inside isn't too bad . If it's a Wet-liner Engine could be a liner bottom seal . Bigger Job . Does NOT look good though . Cracked Head or Block , you may as well simply Replace the Engine .
    1
  1658. Oh Dear . Nothing worse than a Torn Rubber . Hahahaha . Great JOB getting it out . And wonder of wonders , the new one more or less FELL INTO place . So much for 5.6 hours . I love the " Handraulic " torque wrench . " Click ! " .

  1665.  @billkallas1762  . No . Cavitation can be Very damaging . It depends how Severe and prolonged as to what damage MIGHT get done . There is no Guarantee of instant damage .
    1
  1666.  @billkallas1762  . That noise was Cavitation . You know what that is ?

  1667.  @billkallas1762  . Huh ? What ? Make some sense will you . Obviously you're trying to say Something . But FAILING miserably .

  1670. I think that F-150 went Rock-Hopping . The Damage under there was E P I C ! That poor old Jeep is a Goner .
    1
  1671. 100% concur with your observations and synopsis . I can be fun doing a Forensic inspection . " Right then , let's try and figure out what F-ed this thing up so bad " . As soon as there are Dead Shorted Electrics and Fuel in the same place , it's OVER .
    1
  1672. A " Cluster of Disorganisation " . YouTube friendly way of saying a " Clusterfuck " I am guessing . lol . And then later on , you " Reach Around and Jiggle it " . Ray having a BAD Day . LOL . That Honda deserves a BETTER OWNER .

  1675. Your Exciter is my Solenoid . That was either a Warranty claim for the Starter that came out , OR , he will be back for another one . Engine didn't sound good .
    1
  1676.  @ralfie8801  . Yeah . THAT sounds way more rational .
    1
  1677.  @ralfie8801  . Hmm . Why can't those batteries be Under a Front Seat , Original Fitment . Plenty of Manufacturers are doing that these days . Hell , back in the 90's Mercedes and some BMW's had the Battery in the Floor of the Trunk/Boot . That would surely provide a LOT of space for a Rational install of the ENGINE .
    1
  1678.  @ralfie8801  . Then , sorry to say , a Flawed Application . Might retaining the Original Main filter and using a Nearby single Canister Bypass Filter , or better yet , an Oil spinner be a Safer set-up ? Perhaps Firewall mounted .
    1
  1679.  @erikvdo  . I agree . Hanging down like that is VERY bad placement . If you read my Comment PROPERLY I said the Filter set was probably INTENDED to be Under the HOOD . In the Engine Bay .
    1
  1680.  @ralfie8801  . Ray was replacing a REPLACEMENT FILTER SET . So tell me , where would the Original , Factory filter be most likely to be ? In the Engine Bay ?

  1683. Tow Truck Drivin' Hat . With a sheet of glass right behind your head .🤣. One decent bump and the Stetson is pushed down over your eyes . Stick with the Cap , Ray . Advice from a Retired Heavy Vehicle guy . You know them as CDL operators . If that F-150 always runs heavy best idea is definitely an Exchange Tranny for that . That is only going to fail soon ANYWAY with that amount of damage . Word of advice operating the Tilt Tray . Tilt first , at least partly , then Slide for Pick-up and the Reverse for Loading . Saves wear on the Frame Pads .

  1684. How Dare you take people out of their Competence Zone . You Beast , you . 🤣🤣🤣😂🙃😑

  1685. Stainless welds fine . As long as you are welding stainless TO it . Oh , and some Grades of stainless can still have a Magnetic signature . Just weak . Well Done Ray . PROPER mechanical service . Pipework was good so didn't need replacing so going AROUND the problem is Excellent .

  1686. That Transmission was always Doomed . At least it's still running , for now . Excellent Customer support Ray .
    1
  1687. That BIG lump of Rust , with four wheels attached to it was a REVELATION . It should have snapped in Half AGES ago . Rust is stronger than previously thought , it would seem . 🤣. Need to find out WHO used a mismatched Bolt , to PLUG a Brake-line . Speechless .
    1
  1688. Customer states : Felt a bit of a Thump . About a Mile down the Road I started to notice Smoke and Steam . At this time I turned down the Radio and immediately noticed a rattling noise.................................................. Yep , that is now a Boat Anchor . Be interesting to see what happened up top . I wonder if the HEAD is cracked too .

  1689. Machine Gun Noise . Small End Rattle ?

  1692. Never seen a worse Piece of Shit than that . WOW !

  1698. It is neither a Truck OR a Car . It is a Ute . Short for Utility . A Pick-up built on a Beefed Up Car chassis . Most U.S. Pick-ups are a Light Truck design , vis-a-vis , Full Chassis Frame , Beam Axle up front Etc . Whereas the El Camino is like an Australian style Utility Vehicle aka Ute . Wishbone Front End and a Load bearing Subframe at the back . A Car at the Front and a 1 ton truck at the back . That is a Shitty Design for a Distributor . Awkward as F to work with . The Cap should be located by a Key molded into its Base and engages a Notch in the body . Retained by 2 or 4 (V8) external Spring Clips . 2 or 3 on a Six .

  1705. To throw a Nuke in the Direction of the U.K. at the moment WOULD be the End of Russia , as an actual NATION . Most of the World will be Fucked too as a result . Anyone remember the term , Mutually Assured Destruction . Yes , that's right . M A D .

  1708. I still think the Best case of " Dumb American " I have ever heard was : American Tourist , somewhere in Europe . Thought the place was " Pretty Nice , but would be better if there weren't so many Foreigners " . Maybe I should have written that in Australianese , for the Dumb People .
    1
  1709. Yep . Melbourne Tram district ONLY . This is SO important that even Drivers form the other States DO get a " Heads-Up " about this . It actually isn't that difficult once you " Adapt " . NB : The Red Light ALSO applies to the Trams . They also obey . Sydney dweller here .

Still desperately DODGING the question , I see . It's OK , if you actually DON'T know why Russia did this , just say so . You seem ignorant of a lot of other things too , so that can just be added to the List . However , listening to the " Cornered Animal " rhetoric coming out of Moscow lately : ie , Solovyov and Simonyan , it has become CLEAR that this whole thing is about " Restoring the Russian Empire " . Some Fun Facts for you : The Ruble has gone into Freefall again . Ukraine has just downed TWO Helicopters with a Naval Drone . 2024 was the costliest year SO FAR in terms of Manpower and Equipment , for Russia . During 2024 Ukraine figured out how to CLEAR a Salient with Ground and Air drones alone . No Personnel until " Mop Up " . Kremlin : " Everything going according to the Master Plan " . I guess that's why Russia needs to use Donated North Korean Troops , which they desperately HIDE the use of . Yeah , the Worlds " 2nd Military Power " .

You seem ignorant of a lot of other things too , so that can just be added to the List . However , listening to the " Cornered Animal " rhetoric coming out of Moscow lately : ie , Solovyov and Simonyan , it has become CLEAR that this whole thing is about " Restoring the Russian Empire " . Some Fun Facts for you : The Ruble has gone into Freefall again . Ukraine has just downed TWO Helicopters with a Naval Drone . 2024 was the costliest year SO FAR in terms of Manpower and Equipment , for Russia . During 2024 Ukraine figured out how to CLEAR a Salient with Ground and Air drones alone . No Personnel until " Mop Up " . Putler : " Everything going according to the Master Plan " . I guess that's why Russia needs to use Donated North Korean Troops . Yeah , the Worlds " 2nd Military Power " .

  1728.  @ScottJohnson-h3k  . You seem to have " disengaged " . Getting to difficult to maintain the B/S was it ?

  1729.  @ScottJohnson-h3k  . THAT would be the Very Least that Russia owes them . And if they HOLD Sudzha , they CAN continue to do so .

  1730.  @ScottJohnson-h3k . I got a little " trip " to the Middle East at that time too . Yes , that was an Unjustified action , based on a Total Lie . The U.S. has admitted to it as well . Are you attempting to use that as a " Justification " for Russia's Current Actions ? I surely hope not . Now ANSWER the Previous question .

  1732.  @ScottJohnson-h3k  . So " Iraqi Freedom " huh . Yeah not really a Justifiable operation . Based on a Lie . I got a quick trip to " Desert Storm " , which WAS justified . The U.S. has acknowledged the Lie involved with " Iraqi Freedom " . Now........... ANSWER MY QUESTION ! The REAL REASON , since you seem to have " insider knowledge " .

  1733. Happy New Year , Paul . Keep up the (overall) Excellent Work .

  1734.  @ScottJohnson-h3k  . Yes . The U.S. has admitted that the Iraq invasion WAS BASED ON A LIE . On face value they were " Searching for WMD's " , that didn't exist there . I can accept that you are still quite Salty about that . And SO YOU SHOULD BE . That was no more justified than THIS action by Russia is . Ball's in Your court now .

  1737.  @freak94able  . Oreshnik's are OVER-RATED rubbish . A " Why Bother ? " gadget . Although , it WOULD be " Business as usual " for Russia to " Bomb " their own territory , wouldn't it.................

  1738.  @Texas240  Yeah , well I think Ukraine's " retreating " in the East could in fact be a deliberate " Drawing Out " exercise , designed to keep Russia on Offence rather than Defense , thereby allowing them to inflict higher casualties . Putin COULD Sue for a Cease Fire as things stand right now , but of course , WON'T . Far too Proud and Pig-headed for that . So what " Pressure " do you think Putin can exert on Trump ? SFA would be My estimation .

  1740.  @antcantcook960  FIRSTLY , I was responding to @dancleary . He mentioned Race . Maybe you should pay more attention . SECONDLY , what " Point " am I supposed to be " Getting " then ? A Former Special Forces Soldier , U.S. citizen , suffering from PTSD , and trained to do MUCH more damage , if he really WANTED TOO , has made a Political Statement . Elon's Car outside Trump Tower . THAT'S IT . 99% of the story right there . No Race or Religion to it . If you see it otherwise , that would Definitely be a YOU problem . Nobody else's .

  1741.  @SaraShaffer-bj3sd . Nope , PTSD my dear .
    1
  1742.  @antcantcook960  . Oh I understand fine . A Former AMERICAN (citizen) Special Forces Soldier , trained to do FAR more damage if he wished to , sent a " Message " to Musk and Trump . Race and Religion had nothing to do with it . If YOU don't see that the problem is with you .
    1
  1743.  @antcantcook960  . A former U.S. soldier with PTSD , sending a Message . Specifically to Elon Musk and Donald Trump . No Race or Religion to it . Yeah , I understand fine . It's You that doesn't .
    1
  1744.  @antcantcook960  . Wasn't Race . Or Religion either . A disgruntled Former U.S. soldier , and a Citizen , sending a Message . Weren't you listening ? Pretty simple to understand really.............
    1
  1745.  @antcantcook960  . I get the Point just fine . A Former U.S. (citizen) soldier , who was Unhappy with the System , sent a Message . No Race or Religion involved , and he COULD have done Much worse . Had the Skills . It's you who thinks something other about this unfortunate and tragic incident .

  1747.  @kimduong2332  . Sure thing ! How about TWO Cut Submarine Cables . That evidence enough ?
    1
  1748.  @kimduong2332  . You do realise that in Waterways as small as that area , that the Ship has been POSITIVELY Geolocated AT THE SITES of the Cables EXACTLY at the Time that the Connections were Cut . The Ship was being Tracked , as are ALL ships in there , on Coastal Radars . They DID IT .
    1
  1749.  @kimduong2332  . You know that the Ship got Stopped and Searched ? Apparently there was some rather " Suspicious " Equipment on Board . In a Chain Locker............... We will be hearing more about this later , I'm sure .
    1
  1750.  @kimduong2332  That's what I meant when I said WE WILL HEAR MORE ABOUT THIS LATER . If there Really was suspicious equipment present , then the Authorities investigating will MAKE SURE that it was the Offending Rig BEFORE laying Charges . That's how Justice Works in the Western World .

  1752.  @magentamagenta1274  . Simply saying that Israel DOES have some questions to answer DOES NOT MEAN that there aren't others that Also do . I'm not concerned with Israel waging war against their Specific Military Enemies , but the Civilian Populace in Gaza SHOULD have been carefully Vetted and Evacuated , rather than decide on Genocide of the Palestinian People . You do realise , I hope , that the Land where The Israeli State is situated IS in fact , Palestine .

  1753. This sounds like an " Oops moment " . Do you need a Flight Out too Fico ?
