Draco-REX

"Columbus Stock" :lolguy:

I'll be out in Waynesville getting dirty and wishing it were in the 60s...

Made me think of: http://www.movieposter.com/posters/archive/main/14/MPW-7308

I think there are going to be a lot of these at AutoX events in the future. You'll get your chance.

Their space program has to progress somehow..

Wonder if they'll ever make a car that doesn't crumple like tinfoil in a crash test.

Anyone else get the mental picture of someone hitting pigeons on an anvil with a mallet?

This. "Look, fire trucks!" BOOM! "An explosion... maybe I should point the camera at it... Naw! I want to go over there first. Who cares about a big fireball in the sky?"

Wish I had a house so I could put these somewhere.

I miss that GD. The GR is just big and bulky looking. But at least you can get the Subarus with AWD and Turbo engines. The rally Fiesta is just another fake racecar like the NASCAR Taurus. The Segway in that one is also best rolling donut he's ever done. All the later ones have been slow and yawn-worthy. The Trolleys weren't anywhere near as good. There's only shots of the products during the end credits. Tons of driving in this one and less Jack-Assery. Its closer to the earlier ones.

I'm not sure how he'll escalate this for G6. I think it'll likely be overseas.

Better than 4, that's for sure. The sheer number of GoPros used is pretty crazy. I wonder if that one grey wheel is on purpose, or due to a "oops" in practice. As for Block.. My opinion is that he isn't the best driver out there. Give me a car like that I can throw away and some time and I'll do the same stuff he does. That said, he has single-handedly done more to promote rally and motorsports of this style to young people than anyone else has in a VERY long time. Motorsports participants are aging overall, and young blood is always in short supply. Just go to an AutoX and see how much grey hair is out there. But I've seen more people raise their hands as first-time attendees at driver's meetings the last few years and I'll wager a good percentage of them saw these videos and were encouraged to do something FUN with their cars. Is Block a show-off and attention-hog? Yes. Is he a world-class driver? Not really. But is he a good thing for the sport overall? Yes.

I've been eyeballing this and haven't got around to watching it. I recently watched "Let the Bullets Fly." It's another odd one, but a good one. Just, don't get your hopes up about Chow Yun Fat. I think he fires only one bullet the whole movie.

lol

I wanted to go, even paid already, but a fore-casted 103 is just too much. My last two events have been in 100 degree heat and I always end the day feeling like shit. I'm just not going to do it again. I hate the heat and this summer is pissing me off.

This^ Every car I own gets the Rain-X treatment as soon as I get it. Clarity is so much better in the rain, especially heavy rain. I'm amazed that some people don't like it. The visibility is just that much better. The only downside I can see is that wipers tend to streak a little. But part of that I think is that dirt is less likely to stay with the windshield and more likely to adhere to the wiper blade.

I'm gonna have to call this one fake. Funny, but fake. The hay balers I've seen would have chopped him up like a deli-slicer.

They're trying to minimize the number of pictures of the car's inner workings to protect any innovations they've come up with.

They aren't in the same class so they weren't racing each other. In multi-class endurance racing the slower classes have to give way to the faster classes. The hatch should have stayed wide. If this was late in the race, it's likely the hatch's driver was fatigued and just didn't check his mirrors. If it was early in the race, then it was probably a rich amateur getting his jollies among the professionals like the accident at Le Mans between the Ferrari and Toyota.

I want to get in on the re-posting too!

This only works on a 2 dimensional visual plane. So if the rain is heavy enough, you'll have no headlights at all. Good plan....

Wow.. Must've been his firs time jumping. Did you see his hand shaking? Didn't have the drone in-hand, improperly packed chute, waited too long to deploy. Wonder if he lived.

AutoX this weekend.

I didn't want the rear underspoiler because there wasn't a front lip also available. But now that I have an exhaust system with tips that fill out the rear bumper, I wish I had it.
