Fresh Perspective

Very cool set of photos that remind us car guys that green doesn’t mean ugly…..actually it looks like it can mean super sexy.

Concept Fisker Karma – a set on Flickr.

A user on StreetFire asked me to feature his video of some rather crazy drag racing, here it is 🙂

Insane Horsepower…- Video.

Alexis just uploaded this interview he did of the Deathrace Mustang. I have to admit that is one of the cool things about living in LA is easy access to these on screen legends.

The Death Race Movie-car Mustang- Video.

Probably my last post until after Christmas. I’m chilling out with the Family in Pensacola, so not much time to blog, but here are a few videos from those not chill’n out in Florida…snowy crashes…

Icy Crash.- Video.

Hundred launch control launches on a 600hp mid 10 second AWD monster. The only surprise to me is how strong the tranny must be to put up with that much abuse for so long!

I was talking with my buddies Matthew and Josh and all three of us agree the the BMW X6 is supremely sexy, but there is just something about it I just can’t get past. How can you buy an SUV of that size and still not be able to comfortably transport a real dog? (You know like a Golden Retriever) Then I realized I understood the X6 at last. It’s designed to be sexy and oddly wrong, leading me to the above.

Another video featuring Yoshi

StreetFire Skyline Cruise- Video.

Well, as promised the video is finally out, I gave the keys to my car to Garage419, told them I didn’t want to know what they would do with it so long as Matt spanked Gene. Wishes came true

🙂

NOS Rental Vette vs Nissan GT-R – Garage419- Video.

So I own both, a GT-R and a sportbike, so I can vouch for what they are identifying as the differences. Autocar does a phenomenal job of explaining how the two vehicles attack the track differently, though I have to admit the outcome was a bit of a surprise for me.

R35 GT-R vs Ducati 1098- Video.

So Emil and I swapped cars for a weekend. Me? I took his 997 GT3 to Malibu trying to get him a colelction of speed camera tickets in the Canyons.  Him?  Took my GT-R to a drag strip (really? Not even a road course?).  We each learned a little about each other’s cars.  For me, it’s that Porsche doesn’t make a proper racing seat for a Big Whopper ass like mine. For Emil, well click the link to read his review….

PS look for video in two days from Garage419 as they pit my car against a Nitrous rental…. Can’t wait to see the outcome.
