TIL that although the first gen Twins were deemed under powered and useless as track cars in stock form an expert has deemed the second gen as over powered, mega torqued, death machines that even the pro drivers can not handle.
Who knew that a 15% HP and 20% torque increase would change the car so much. Good thing nobody has ever gone over 250HP on these cars or they would crash as soon as they started moving!

TIL that morning coffee's effectiveness is inversely proportional to the previous night's beer's effectiveness.

Not technically TIL. Just a fun fact.

The animators for Into the Spiderverse have Miles (the main character) start out at only 12 frames every second when he first is learning his powers, and as he progresses he eventually hits the full 24 frames per second near the end of the film.
