Why does SharkWerks get it and Porshe doesn’t?

I was just reading through the latest SharkWerks build up on 6SpeedOnline, and I noticed that they did what Porsche should have done years ago.  Proper paddle shifters for the tiptronic transmission.  With the new PDK dual clutch hitting dealers with some janky push-pull button arrangement I really am wondering if Porsche engineers have even driven a car with proper padle shifters?  Anyhow, happy that options exist, hope this aftermarket solution works on the new PDK system

Rhys Millen Flips a truck for New Years 2009

I’ve met Rhys a few times and I have to say he’s an amazing man. He nearly lost his life jumping trucks but he came back to do the stunt again for 2009. His tenacity is inspirational.

Wishing my Japanese was better, I am in love with the carbon brakes and seats, not so sure about the wheels though.

Most Expensive and slowest Carbon Fiber Gear Ever

Off Topic, but heck, being a car guy I have a near sexual atraction to things made out of Carbon Fiber.  This one would break the bank for me though, how about a $300,000 all Carbon table?  Check out this and more at a new favorite site I just found, CarbonFiberGear.com
