Are you f-ing serious??? lol

That's true.... I'm not a zillionaire. But I am good at what I do. And I bet, somewhere there are plenty of folks busting Steve's ***** wondering "why didn't you do it this way"?

^ True true, others will always have other ideas, suggestions and opinions. What I do like about Jobs is his "Better is the enemy of good enough" drive.
(I also like how he drives with no plates):

You say that like it's a bad thing.

I think it's about time this thread got a bullet to the back of the head.

Ok so since you seem to know how to do Sam's job better than he can do.. Sam runs his business to sell parts and help people setup their car to become "significantly" better on the autocross course. Since Sam's not doing a good enough job.. give us some ideas on other parts that you think are a serious bottleneck hindering performance on the autocross course that you think would make our times go down by like a second or two. And don't say the CM front bar because we already covered that it won't make much of a difference.

You seem to have all the answers so indulge us all with your knowledge. Time to put your money where your mouth is. Walk the talk

Isn't that the exact opposite of what you were trying to do with this thread?

Still waiting on your answer. We wouldn't want you to make yourself look like a jackass on here right?

I wonder how well this would work for sways, Apple is already working with them:
http://www.liquidmetal.com/technology/

Seems like these alloys could enable all sorts of advances in car parts...

"This amorphous atomic structure leads to a unique set of characteristic properties for the family of Liquidmetal alloys.

These characteristic properties are:
High Yield Strength
High Hardness
Superior Strength/Weight Ratio
Superior Elastic Limit
High Corrosion Resistance
High Wear-Resistance
Unique Acoustical Properties"
