    i like the iihgs.org crash tests, as they publish the raw data from every test. The M5 is a 28 year old design at this point. In the day, it was extremely good. Now I'd say its only as good as a bottom-tier new car, safety wise. It has thin A and B pillars compared to anything recent. Great for visibility, not as good for side impact hits. Random E28 crash movie: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu16v2Ey59I[/ame] Note that the front glass and safety cell of the E28 are fine. The damage to my car is visibly minimal. If i fixed the taillight, nobody would know that it had been hit unless they got a bit closer, but the panel gaps all around the trunk and rear doors are screwed. I got an estimate this morning and it is of course quite a bit more than $1k. The other guys' adjuster is coming by to look at it this afternoon. As far as what E28 M5's are running for... search on auto-trader for 1988 BMW M5s. Mine has 130,000 miles.... which constitutes "low miles" for a 21 year old car, and is lower mileage than many of the auto-trader cars. The car has done a few hundred laps of BIR and chased down MUCH faster cars, and it has leather everything and working R12 A/C.

The old bell tower is pretty intense as well....shit like dust kicking up off the ground when there is no breeze and no one in the room besides yourself was what I experienced there. Cold spots in the tunnels that I passed off as just coincidence. The rest of the building(s) is/are fine, but every now and again I'd get a chill for whatever reason. Also, being in the basement where they keep/kept the old shock-therapy devices was pretty insane as well. Looked like old arc-welders with head restraints, wrist straps and ankle straps connected to them. Ya, my dad said there was all kinds of torture shit down there... blood on floors and walls.. locked cages with truth serum stuff.. pretty nuts supposedly there is a place to get into the downtown tunnels, but we had no luck... maybe another time we'll go back and look.. I just wanna be carrying something with and a bright mother fucking spotlight, cause if they are accessible who knows how many homeless ppl/crackheads/methlabs would be down there....

    That would be sweet. I guess I've never really looked at a rotary close but I can't imagine they're too complex? Although I know somone in our class did a little carb off of a 4 wheeler or something and had a hell of a time measuring and modeling all the tiny little parts. I could swear Dr. Bob is bipolar lol I thought he wasn't even teaching anymore. Ah I remember those days, staying till like 3AM in the lab... good times.

    FG2;292647 wrote: hmmm, went to it last night, and I guess I will say that I was disappointed. I understand the budget and 'Blair Witch Project' feel, but it was simply a poor movie. The ending was the only part that gave me any type of 'jump'. I went into it without reading any details of the movie, so maybe that was my downfall? I have already recommended to other people to pass on it. To each their own. Almost word for word from what others have told me. Said go if you want to be bored for 90mins with about 15minutes of excitement. And I would consider a few of these people to be into the paranormal thing. Can't say that bodes well for me.
