no idea what it means but the result was .099 microsieverts per hour which apparently is less than soil…

If we let it sit, how long is sufficient?

I'm not sure if serious or troll. If it's for real this gotta be the funniest post on here

Fukushima is 142 miles north northeast of Ota City. Our cars aren't glowing.

The half life of uranium is 703 million years, you should put the car In a 6ft thick concrete box for that time period. That should do the trick.

Yeah, but that's Uranium-235, which represents less than 1% of the naturally occurring Uranium on earth. Don't lie to the man. Most of that Uranium is Uranium-238 with a half life of 4.5 BILLION years.

You won't be getting your BRZ back for awhile buddy.

Good thing I stocked up on RadAway packs this winter.

Well Philosophical Raptor has a question too.

This thread is rapidly becoming filled with win. No glowing cars or people here in Ohio yet. However, the afterglow from the meth lab explosions is beautiful at night.

Imagination!!!

A 68 Years old guy was exposed to the Leaked Radiation Environment in Japan for 6.8 seconds....because he needed to enter his 86 and drive it away.

He drove the car away for 8.6 minutes, at approximately 86kmh away from that place.

How far away did he get away from the origin in the 8.6 minutes at that constant speed ?

How far will another 6.8 additional Minutes at the same speed will get him ? from the Origin

Are those duration enough to Radiation-Nalize the car and the Driver ?

Thanks for thinking

Don't forget fuel stabilizer.
And unplug your battery.

May want to lift the car off its wheels, too, there's going to be a hell of a flat spot in them once you roll it back out.

There's definitely nothing to worry about... must be a troll haha.

We were living outside of Tokyo when it all went down and while there was a scare for the first few weeks, nothing ever happened outside of the evacuation zone (as far as radiation). We go every year to help minister to the people who were affected by the tsunami and during these trips we go around the evacuation zone in Fukushima. I don't think there's anything to worry about even at that distance. The fruit was really big and delicious though, so there's that
