My son just called my attention to the new 707 horsepower Dodge Challenger Hellcat. Since we appear to be entering a Mini-Ice Age, it is important that we all do what we can to warm the Earth. Those of you who want to save the planet can contribute to the Save the Planet with Hellcats Fund. We need to raise $120,000 to buy two. Note that we are each making do with the base model and selecting the standard transmission for fuel efficiency and because we are men. After the vehicles have been purchased, we promise to drive them all over Texas spewing carbon dioxide.
Is it a 707 Dodge, like the Boeing 707?
Or is it really 707 horsepower. Fact is, I don’t believe a real 707 hp car. You wouldn’t be able to control such a car. It must have a dozen gears.
I made the above comment before watching the link.
I still don’t believe it. Is a car going to stay on the road at 200 mph? You need to stay in West Texas because it’s going to take that far to stop.
How do you live in a country like this one? As we learned from relatives and friends behind the former air on Curtain, hold your family and faith close.

Chas, I think you probably need a Hellcat. It would certainly get a few looks in the church parking lot.
I wouldn’t drive it 200 mph, but it sure would be fun on those West Texas interstate highways.

Interesting link anon. And that last line:

My only comment to Anon’s 9:30 is that Japan needs to rearm. They also need the bomb.
