What's the difference between GEEKS and NERDS?

ShadowTD

Very simple

I've always said the difference is easy to define - geeks get laid (albeit with other geeks). Nerds are too socially awkward.

DeLorean goes electric for 2013 roll-out

FAIL

So much fail in these comments!

Firstly, the chassis for the production DMC-12 owes more to the Lotus Esprit of the time, given it was design by Lotus. The DeLorean has always been quite a reasonable handler for a rear-wheel drive chassis of that era. Secondly, the gull wing doors open in significantly *less* space than a standard door. Look at where they're hinged - not at the edge of the roofline but practically in the middle.

The top speed is probably limited due to stability issues over that speed. You know, for safety.

Any other morons want to chime in?
