Road & Track measure the performace of a few cars
of two-second club

post from Car Enthusiast: Car Modification | DIY | 2ZZGE,4AGE,4G93T,JBJL,4G13,4G15 on 25 September 2011 09:34:43 PM. © Car Enthusiast: Car Modification | DIY | 2ZZGE,4AGE,4G93T,JBJL,4G13,4G15

Road and Track is back and would hold shootouts to measure a car's performance, and no shortage of benchmarks against which to judge them. The 200 mile-per-hour mark, for example, holds its share of bragging rights.

There are only a few cars ? that is, showroom-stock production cars ? in the world that can run from 0-60 in less than three seconds. Road & Track had chosen the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, Porsche 911 Turbo S and Nissan GT-R to the exclusive club. Video of the affair is posted after the jump.

Hopefully there will be more in the near future which features the Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari 458 Italia and McLaren MP4-12C give it a shot. What would you like to see in the next heat? Treat the comments section as a suggestion box.

How to Buy Raw Land

Buying raw land is not as complicated as you might think. It's much, much cheaper than buying a home (with fewer strings attached), and probably the biggest step towards an independent future that you can make. Even in a place as settled as the United States, good property is still to be found, especially in rural areas, and often you'll find land that is quite reasonably priced, from around three to five thousand dollars an acre on a small parcel, and less if you buy more.While this article is focused principally on purchasing raw land in the United States, a number of the principles also apply to raw land elsewhere, with variations on laws and loans that you'll need to investigate for yourself.

$1 DIY Custom Soap Dispenser

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I wanted to share a quick, cheap, fun little project (...aren't those the BEST kind?!).

The mismatched clunky hand and dish soaps on my kitchen sink drive me crazy. For awhile, I stored them under the sink which was super impractical and didn't last long.

As I was checking out the dollar store (the one entitled Deals) on my lunch hour this week, I spotted these oil/vinegar dispensers-
Unfortunately, they did not have any plain ones...they all had Vinegar printed on them. My first thought was to scratch the black part off, afterall they were only a $1, so I wasn't too worried if it didn't work out.

Once I got them home, I realized that the decal was there to stay. I decided to try painting over the 'vinegar' lettering using some leftover black paint I had from painting my front door.

I did about 3 coats of paint on each of the 2 dispensers I bought. I had originally planned on getting vinyl lettering to label one with 'hand' and the other with 'dish'. However, it was 8:30pm at this point and Hobby Lobby was already closed. (*Side rant- It drives me ba-na-nas that Hobby Lobby closes at 8 during the week and is closed Sunday. Hello, evenings and Sundays are my primary shopping times!) So, I checked around my craft/office room to see if I could find something else.

Luckily, I found some leftover small flat wooden letters I had used eons ago to make a personalized photo frame for a gift. I didn't have enough letters to spell out hand and dish, so I just grabbed an H and a D.
I slapped on some brownish craft paint I had on hand. I'm not in love with the color by any means, but I wanted to get this done quickly and well, it was there.
After two thin coats of the great invention ever a.k.a. Mod Podge, they were good to go.

*Make sure to dilute the liquid soap with some water, so it's easier to come out of the spout.

Much better!

Not bad for $2 and about 15 minutes.
I've made several other changes to my kitchen recently, which I will share in one big post soon:)
love, S
