Do we have an "Awesome" thread yet?

Unfortunately, I had a bout of some inexplicable illness that left me pouring sweat that was burning my eyes... it was either food poisoning or a chemical reaction...

I didn't end up making it out there, but Miatardo went both days!

He said there was an original Subie 22B and a early '70s Nissan Skyline out there... :cry:
 
Porsche 917/10 chassis. Without the body, this thing looks like a large go kart. Freaking awesome in my book! I'd love to drive it!

Huge, non forum friendly version is at this link: https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/bbd5xebwvnyjkz0faj7o.jpg

^^Exactly why I love sim racing. I can drive stuff that no matter how much money I make, I'll never be able to afford it in real life, or they just don't even exist to buy any more anyway. And most people with a decent job can afford really high end sim racing gear. I'm still hoping for a DD wheel at some point next year.

I love sim racing and arcade racing and while it scratches my competitive itch to a certain degree it does not satisfy my need for speed and being one with a vehicle. That may come in the future, but right now that feedback isn't there.

I don't have the budget for the kind of 1:1 toys it would take to scratch that itch. So for me, with VR, it's close enough. "thumbsup"

I'd have swapped the lifts and turntable around, but I'd live there. If there was a decend general store and an E85 pump on the grounds, I wouldn't need to leave8)
 
was JUST talking about this last week, that oddly enough id never come across a V8 swap prowler, even with the LS craze.

very cool. i think with a few mods those cars could be made pretty cool. i always liked them.

I think Lingenfelter did a few when John Lingenfelter was still alive, can't remember if they were late generation SBCs or early LSs, apparently there have been some late model Hemi swaps and Chrysler even built one with a 4.7l dropped in it. I am surprised that these guys just went for the Powerglide and LX Cbassis rear diff route vs trying to make a C5-C7 transaxle work. That's the direction Dad and I would have both tried over an ancient 2 speed.
 
a V8 and removing those front bumper 2 halves (illigal i know) could make a really cool modern hot rod.

did a google search looks like a ton of people had done the bumper removal.

I didn't really know about Banksy until this news story came out. Putting a shredder inside of the painting's frame and then activating it after the gavel dropped for $1.4 Million is such a dick move. But I think it's funny because these idiots are wasting stupid money on "art" that a pre-teen could have made.

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. Are there any legal ramifications to maliciously destroying something that was just purchased for way too much money?


Oh and Prowlers have always been cool looking. But, like the Chevy SSR, the performance never matched the look.
