The fastest woman on four wheels, ever (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023883549)
Jessi Combs has firmly established herself as the fastest woman on four wheels. Today she surpassed the existing women’s land speed record with a two-way average speed of nearly 392 miles per hour through a measured mile on the dry lakebed at the Alvord Desert in southeastern Oregon. That speed beat her own 344 mph mark from yesterday, a speed that already surpassed the previous record of 308 mph set in 1965 by Lee Breedlove, wife of former world land speed record holder Craig Breedlove.
At one point during her run, Jessi reached a top speed of 440.709 mph. “That felt so unbelievably good,†exclaimed Combs when told of her new record. “I knew that one was really, really fast.â€
Combs made two runs today in the Eagle. The rules require that a driver make two passes across a measured course, once in each direction, with the second pass completed within 60 minutes of the first. Officials then average the two speeds. On her first run, she passed through the measured mile at 354.931 mph, exiting the mile at 2:25 pm. But she was not entirely pleased with that first pass. “The car ran great, but I kept getting pulled into the ruts from yesterday’s runs,†she said.
After coming to a stop at the south end of the lakebed, the team turned and serviced the Eagle so that Jessi could re-fire the jet engine to make her return run. At 3:15 pm, she re-entered the measured mile and recorded a speed of 430.978 mph, for a two-way average of 392.954 mph.
The vehicle that Combs drove, the North American Eagle (NAE) Supersonic Speed Challenger, is considered a “car†because it has at least four wheels. But it is certainly not a car you would see on any road. The Eagle is a 14,000 pound, 50,000 horsepower converted F-104 Lockheed Starfighter jet that once served as a chase plane for the X-15 and SR-71. The all-volunteer team of American and Canadian engineers and former military personnel removed the wings and added wheels to convert the F-104 into a jet-powered car that may ultimately travel at more than 800 mph.
Combs is an automotive metal fabricator and currently co-hosts All Girls Garage (Velocity by the Discovery Channel) and The List: 1001 Car Things to do Before You Die (AutoBlog). Previous television appearances include Mythbusters and Overhaulin’ (Discovery Channel), Xtreme 4x4 (Spike TV), and Two Guys Garage (Speed Channel).

5. Some big machine burns fuel to go fast.
Very important.

JackRiddler is right, this is lounge material. Doug put it in GD? How come they can't think appropriately? I didn't read it.
-
Doesn't count.
The brain-damaged primitive still hasn't explained and apologized to his fellow primitives for having been such a rectal aperture.
He's got to do that, before anything else he posts, counts.

Because, Karin. They just can't.

Huh...you'd think the DUmmies would be all up in arms over all the carbon that was burned to further rape mother Gaia and shit.

Hey Doug. :tongue:
-
I propose that any woman approached with amorous intent by Dougabeetus Bulna would surely break that record merely getting away from him.
-
Hey Doug. :tongue:
You know, this is so hokey, so stupid, so childish, of the brain-damaged primitive.
It's hard to believe he's right on the edge of being an old man, but of course he is.
One wonders how he got so far in life, being so chronologically and intellectually retarded.
I think the brain-damaged primitive might have learned that words have consequences, and I suppose it's time he learned that words not spoken (such as an explanation and apology to his fellow primitves) have consequences too.

I think his thread is significant, because he seems as miserable and nasty as he ever was:

Like dumbass Doug could squeeze his fat unemployed ass into a F-104 much less a Ford 150.
-
Well Dougie-Poo has learned nothing it seems. He got mean and nasty right away.
Now why is that?
It is either a flawed character trait,
or
the place he eats at is infested with earwigs...McWalldudes I think it's called.

23. Your insistence on deciding the fate of my threads is bothersome
when did you become the GD nanny?
11 years here and you just can't leave people alone..........sad being a thread troll.
I won't reciprocate in kind, I can't be bothered with being so petty.
This grew to be a huge thread with Doug slapping down all who disagree.

Poor doug never did make any contact, then one of them would BS him again.
I couldn't help but laugh at him. They had the Hate Walrus, seething with impotent rage

Heading to the path of irrelevancy.

But not until he makes a strong showing in the Top DUmmies of 2013 first.
I don't care where, just so he's in the top five or something.
He's an "automatic" win for the Steven Dawes award, but that's not the same thing.

I'm sure he'll make a very strong showing, even on the strength of a single thread.
It depends a little on one's feeling about the DOTY criteria.
You could say it's primarily based on the DUmmy's proven depth of lunacy, and that's one of Doug's strong points.
Or, you could say it's mostly determined by how much entertainment the DUmmy has provided over the year, in which case a single-thread DUmmy doesn't fare as well.
Of course if you combine the two nadin has no peer, but Doug, and Amber, should do very well.

It's an "either/or" case, although if it includes both, it's so much the better.
Either a primitive with a one-time bombastic explosion of really colorful stupidity, or a primitive who provided a steady diet of comedy all year long.
Both standards are equal, and it's up to the voters each year to decide which one's more important.

Dougie has been telling people to go to hell in hundred of threads over many, many years. His iggy list puts gNads to shame.
This ain't his first rodeo. Doug Bulna has withstood the test of time.

To clarify, he has become irrelevant to DUmmies. I have no doubt he will be in the top 5 for DOTY.

He's been around for years, but his routine vulgarity has been lost in the DUmp pack.
They're all vulgar and offensive. Doug was just another assclown.
It took his walldude disaster to set him apart from the howling mob.

As one whose mole was shown his wrath, I was well aware of, shall we say, his potential.
I'll admit that I might has a biased preference.

This has to smart! An inquiry as to the whereabouts of Loconuts after only a few days w/o posting, but no interest shown when Doug failed to appear.
Dang, Doug. Don't the DUmmies care about you and your remote?

Uh oh. Check the closets for a sniveling fairy-boy. Mommy probably caught him spanking it again.

I wonder if that has anything to do with DainBramaged (http://tsdr.uspto.gov/img/78325173/large) / Doug Bulna (http://tsdr.uspto.gov/img/78325173/large) / Douglas Bulna (http://tsdr.uspto.gov/img/78325173/large) / Douglas C.
