That poor, tiny tire. its only a 315(/35-18, don't remember the rim size). It was stretched so far, can't imagine that was the size from the factory.

The bad:

badass, that is. SAE Baja competition, this thing takes anything and everything you can throw at it, or throw it over, or off of, or through.....

The ugly:

Ever seen an Eco car? Ever seen a under-manned under-funded college team's first year attempt at one? Now you have. We had a pimp yellow fiberglass body on it, with purple tiger stripes (purple + gold = LSU colors, Tiger = mascot), but it was too heavy so we made this over night. You can see what really matters in the picture...

F1...you don't see many of those around nowdays. F40's too.

Nice pics. I like that new VW Rabbit, but I don't like when people buy a brand new car a week ago and take it to a car show - expecting it to win because it's "rare" and new and of course it's extra clean - it's new.

Heh, funny you should mention that. The vee dub still had dealer stickers on it. Dunno the story behind all that

Isn't that a GTI MK V?

 

[geoffsgt]

Hell if I know. Honestly, I didn't walk down that row. I'm not that interested in big subwoofers and exhaust pipes.

Does look like a GTI though, not a Rabbit. Aren't Rabbits verts?

not all rabbits are verts. The GTI's are nice though I almost got one for a daily driver, but didn't want a car payment

I think I saw that Bel Air at the show in Hammond a few weekends ago

 

[kaostik]

your friend has alot of nice cars

Ever.

Well, you can actually have an F1 built for you, for a very large sum of money.

There was that vid on youtube or somewhere where that young dude got his orange one, and his airheaded wife was filming when he picked it up.

It was very, very irritating to hear her on the video.

^ yeah, that was a great vid minus his wife's voice. He ripped on that car too

Link? I sifted through 10 pages of the same McLaren F1 videos before giving up. Why do people insist on posting the same thing over and over again?

I once saw this guy driving F-40 where I worked. Nice car, except I was working at Local ski area, and car was covered in solt/dirt/snow (No lie. It was REAL Ferrari F-40, not Fierori)..

Even covered in crap, it still was amazing looking car tho
