    I was watching that to they sayed the unlimited speed was something like 767mph. What is the speed of sound?
     
  4. 768 at sea level
     
  5. Not to be a dick, but every time I watch "Car Crazy!", it makes me not so crazy about cars anymore.

    Is there a sonic boom when a car brakes the sound barer?

    Anyone that uses the term "car guy" to describe oneself is in fact not actually a car guy. Keep an eye out for the gold chain, its the dead givaway.
     
  10. What if it's in the woods and there is nobody around?
     
  11. Speed of sound - what matters is the ambient temperature, so even at sea level, it can vary. "At sea level" is actually wrong. The speed of sound in Antarctica is going to be different than in the Irqai desert at high noon because of temperature. Read below, especially at the second link:

    So, at 90 degrees F, the speed of sound is 783.6 mph. At Bonneville, that would be a good point to shoot for.

    At 768mph someone will be around very soon.
     
  13. I'm a car guy,,so according to you I don't count.

    Having met Barry McGuire i think he is one of the nicest people I have ever had the chance to meet.

    Not one time during our conversation did he try and promote his product with me although I am well aware of his business empire,,some of you guys need to grow up! HRP

  14. Car, plane, Shuttle, doesn't matter. You get a sonic boom at the point where the vehicle does Mach 1. Like this F22 Raptor, for example...

    The last scene was Steve VanBlarcom's Pontiac towing his roadster.
     
  20. No, that's not true. 20/20. Barry Maguire being the nicest guy on Earth, is beside the fact that when he talks it's like someone jabbing me in the ear with a pencil.

    I saw the show, and liked the show. I wish he'd only smile after talking, but he's the first person I have ever witnessed that can smile WHILE talking, and that's what creeps me out....

    I'll bet he even sleeps with that silly grin on his face...:)
     
  24. I wonder if he's ever spread any bondo (or lead) or put in a clutch on Sunday so he could get to work on Monday?
    That's what car-guys do (my opinion)
     
  25. This episode has been on before and been talked about here before too.

    I had heard 3M bought Meguiars, you got a lot of boycotting to do if it's true.
