I saw something recently where GM was building a section of road, maybe a
test track. Of course, they were talking about this in 1965 too.
Construction is a bit slow, I guess.

I've seen experiments done on test tracks, and the system works extremely
well. I think the problem is how to wake up the driver when you get to the
end of the wire, and how many cocktails have the occupants of the car had
during the wired trip. Seems to me you could easily place a wire in one
lane of many interstate highways. Your car follows the wire, and you
disconnect when you get off the interstate.
All this said, I think this idea was scrapped with the advent of GPS. I
think very soon, you will see cars that can get from point A to point B
without a driver. Until then, it's still up to the nut behind the wheel to
get the car from one place to another.

Assholes.
1: They can only go as fast as the lead vehicle. As you see that will
be a truck. Dunno about USA but in EU trucks over 3,500Kg have lower
speed limits on all roads.
2: They are all nose to tail so on single carrigeways it won't ever be
possible to overtake the assholes road train.

From: robbie
I purchased a Consult unit and am running ConZult free software on my
laptop to get the following numbers:
at idle, the timing is 11-12 degrees and when you increase idle up to
about 2500 and back the reading goes up to 40-44 degrees the returns
to 11-12. i'm really thinking this isn't normal and since I have
already replaced the distributor I'm thinking i have a worn timing
chain which allows such a great fluctuation. does anyone else agree
before I start tearing into the valve cover to see what the top end
looks like? the engine has 224k miles, so it is something to think
about. Would this be able to cause drivability issues that i have been
battling? hesitation/bucking on acceleration, lack of power at low
end? Thanks to all who have time to reply. This is my first foray
into diagnostic equipment, and those readings looked weird to me! If i
am way off then someone school me quickly- i am trying to learn!
