So there I was, browsing DeviantART (BECAUSE I HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO, OKAY?), when I noticed that a while back that +/a/'s favorite artist, Yamino, had drawn a picture of a Smart Roadster a while back, saying that it was her dream car. That's the picture right there, on your left. The gearhead in me immediately wanted to comment "that would be totally sweet if you swapped in a Hayabusa engine, maybe a turbocharger, tune up the suspension, stiffen the chasis a little." Then I realized that A) this was a picture from 2008, and B) deviantart probably isn't the place to discuss tuning. That, after all. is what /tek/ is for!

Now, I can't be the only one who does this. There are a lot of helpful, knowledgeable people on this board, and sometimes that instinct to chime in about our favorite topics can't be resisted. So tell me, /tek/heads, of your greatest Gearhead Moments, inappropriate or otherwise!
