That train figure is for a regular train. I was basing my calculations on TGV atlantique which states 13.2 kw.h per train kilometer. Why would you compare with America that doesn't have HSR? Low speed trains are obviously more effecient I'm not disputing that. Yeah I meant at the Sydney end...

Nope, 767 and A320, remember though that 737s carry more people so per passenger wouldn't be that much worse. And as I explained previously, high altitude = considerably less energy.

if we had nuclear yes I think it'd be a much better idea, I'm still not sure it would attract enough people to b economically feasable but in terms of CO2, then yes it would. I said this already I'm pretty sure. CO2/passenger depends on the plane, a rough estimate for a 767 (just I found the...

Via Canberra and Albury would be over 1000 km, based on the current highway. a high speed train can't just go straight between there because of that whole great dividing range thing, and it needs corners with radius no less than 7 km. Over 1000 km = more CO2 than a plane, as we have coal power...

yeah same lol it was a trap

its not that fucking complicated moving massive trains at high speed uses a lot of energy. TGV atlantique uses 13.2kWh per kilometer, and only carries about twice as many passengers as a 767 or 1.5 times that of an Airbus A330 (the planes that fly Sydney to melbourne)

price fixing is still illegal in a free market

Not making judgement on the bill, just saying he atleast managed to pass the main part of his campaign where Rudd has done...

except Obama actually used mad trickery to get healthcare bill to pass.

Would you rather fuck some gross fat chick like roseanne for a million dollars or suck brad pitt's cock?

you can't unsuck a cock.

2003 VY SS ute and a job that would get you an exemption :P

when you're running 18psi it's hard to make them quiet though

Oh and my opinion (and my friend agrees too) it's really annoying but necessary.

my mates 300zx the BOV is louder than the exhaust... Nothing compared to my neighbour whose S14 has an external wastegate though. Edit: and I know wastegates and BOVs are not the same thing, but yeah, holy fuck.

flutter sound is compressor surge... blow of valves are a necessity.

I have like $50,000 in my name and it's not affected.

thats okay because body kits are lame.

I wasn't trying to insinuate anything, you can clearly see it in the video.

if they are ex-students/teachers there is no issue idiot
