  • I agree 300 km/h is insanely fast and stupid on public roads.

    The rest of your points sound like you live in 2005.

    A lot of regular traffic nowadays will get you to 200 km/h. Above 150 km/h is not relying on sheer luck, I’m sorry that’s just not true. Yes it’s really really fast and really illegal, but you maintain control given a few conditions.

    I’m also not sure what you mean by “special gear for improved road grip.” A car’s shape naturally somewhat resembles an aerofoil, so yes you generate lift at high speeds. Most modern cars account for this by aerodynamic design, including but not limited to things like diffusers, spoilers, splitters, and the shape of the body itself. These help keep you planted along with good suspension and good tires. I’m certain that just about any car made within the last two decades will not become uncontrollable past 150 km/h unless you’re driving on a really wet surface.





  • Self-storage. Try not to start rental during the summer/spring, prices are way higher than winters. If you’re storing short term with items that are easily bought new, I would suggest just getting rid of them and buying new. I see a ton of people who store thinking they’ll be out in 3 months and end up staying a year and spending way more than the items were ever worth. This is especially true for home renovations, those take up at least 50% more time than you think they will. If you smell something funky throughout a large part of the floor, don’t store on that floor. It’s most likely caused by mouse issues. Try to store in an elevator access unit instead of ground level. They’re usually more secure, tend to not have mouse issues, and end up cleaner because they’re lower traffic.
