I`d be more impressed if you could get a Pic off the Elan next to it (be a good pic for the Calender) :smt081

Bone-breaking action! Gotta give props to the pickup driver for keeping it going around the corner properly. There is a huge drop-off on most of this road.

Evora Drifting

and another, from LOG29. Modified Elise on Barber Point track. There is an M100 in this one (getting passed by the Elise at about the 7:40 point).

Nice one Niters!
Some interesting stuff on Jay's site, the video on the 'Deronda' is also fun, talks about power to weight ratio and the Elan (original) gets another mention - Niter's link is all about the original Elan.

Damn impressive effort. I can't imagine getting permission from the US govt. to do the same. I think buying all that explosive rocket fuel might trigger some sort of terrorist watch list.

Golfers?

This is probably the coolest thing I've ever seen in a pro tournament.

Titleist in the corner pocket

I wonder if they would have given the other guy the car if his had gone in instead?

A professional-mechanic looking rolling "toolbox" was included with the purchase of each new McLaren F1. Note especially the HUGE torque wrench about 4-feet long. Interesting the extreme effort they put into reducing weight of various components too.

I stumbled across this one after pulling a muscle in my shoulder and looking for some exercises. The exercises are interesting, however they could ruin your eyesight and lead to a cramping in your hands :roll:
