Out of Print- Americans Crap on America Edition
/
Self-loathing is a common indication of manic depression, and a warning sign for potential suicide candidates. If these ads from 1985 are any indication, both Chrysler and GM should have tried to kill themselves by now. Fortunately they. . . oh wait, damn.

Name That Part: High School Math Edition
/
Math. Back in high school they told us we’d use it every day of our lives. Not believing them, I spent most of my math classes drawing cars in my notebook and fantasizing about showing them to the girls in the class so they could swoon over my mad car-drawing skills. Eventually, I found that…

Don't Be Afraid To Ask Questions: Part 3 – The Turbocharger
/
I hope you are all enjoying this series as much as I am… I love learning more information about things I have a great passion for. Not to mention how much I enjoy finding these excellent old-school videos. They remind me of a time when I would sit and watch Goofy learn something new. Today…

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xlkng6l0qyI[/youtube] We know LeMons is a bit of a circus on-track, but at least there we’ve got flaggers to let us know if half the field is wrecked and on fire. Hat Tip: lilwillie

Last Call- Russians Were Plane Crazy
/
While Hooniverse likes to focus on those things that have four wheels and fit in an average garage, sometimes we like to point upward and shout there, up in the sky- it’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s too much vodka and national pride! Check out English Russia for more on these Potemkins of the…

/
Commenter bzr, who has provided us with a plethora of goodness over the last few weeks, has opted to take on a bigger task this time. He’s waxing nostalgic about the performance version of his dad’s old Skyhawk.

Submission Thursday: Cyrobuka
/
I think we’ve all sketched or doodled our schemes at some point. I had a History prof in University whose voice was so boring, he made Ben Stein sound like Rod Roddy from the Price Is Right. Much drawing and scheming was done. Tanshanomi, however, has taken things one step further. But don’t take our…

Hooniverse Asks- What's the Best Turbo Engine?
/
With gas prices through the roof, and eco pod-people calling out conspicuous consumers of dead dinosaurs like they are the un-converted, car makers are once again revisiting the idea of smaller, forced induction engines in supersession of large, gas-hungry motors. This isn’t the first time for this sort of renaissance, and there’s a mess of…

For Sale: The Czech is in the Mail
/
Today, Skoda is a wholly-owned subsidiary of VAG, but back in 1969 it was still under the auspices of the Soviet-Bloc planned economy, which had forced nationalized ownership on the company, and had cut it off from the west, stifling technological progress and access to modern parts. While the Ruskies and Americans traded narrow-eyed scowls…

When Life Gives You LeMons…
/
…It’s time to make LeMonade! All too often we come across some crazy beater on Craigslist that’s just begging to go out in a blaze of glory. That, or it comes with a ready-made theme too awesome to pass up. Regardless, it’s tricky to wring 150-ish words of description out of 3 blurry cell phone…

Last Call- The Drag Queens of Italy
/
In urban Italy, every traffic light is an opportunity for a drag race to the next, and the Latin machismo order of the hairy chest is ordained to whoever wins the block-long run. For decades, Italian car owners have tuned and tweaked their tiny cars to provide an edge in these impromptu street contests, and…
