    Would you could you in this car?

     



    Wonder what it would look like if an animal jump out in front of this car? We are lucky to have the flats here in the states for this kind of test.

    Did you catch the tire time limit rating at that speed? Who's the guy who tests that for accuracy?

    It took me an hour and 15 minutes to download the thing, but I liked it. My question is, how do I get that job? Like to know what it costs too!
    I ain't dumb, I just ain't been showed a whole lot!

    Veyron is impressive, but then, for $1.6 million it should be.

    Here's th SSC Ultimate Aero brother Dalton referred to, built here in Wa. St. This was filmed on a temporarily closed section of State Hwy.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
