Speaking of the Lambo, I'm reminded of a replay I have had for a wile for pictures and had forgotten about.

During five lap race in an open lobby with my Lambo.

The first few laps where pretty uneventful.

Lap three I'm (Lamborgini) just lurking behind Racer_S90 (Nismo)

Still on lap three I start showing a little pressure with a hard line through the corkscrew

End of lap four, I make my move and take Racer_S90 before the line on the front streach

Coming out of turn four on lap five I dropped a tire giving Racer_S90 the line to take me in turn five

Still close enough to strike I ran hard through turn nine hoping to get a run on the outside in turn ten when my last lap fireworks explode in my hand when I drop a tire on exit of nine and again in turn ten trying to recover from the mistake...

Racer_S90 having seen I respected him enough to have given my all to show him a good race, pulled over and was going to give it to me. I respectfully declined

Racer_S90 is one of those guys that despite sharing track space with hundreds of times I never actually see him, he's allways that far a head of me, I was very satisfied with just having been close enough to be able to get racey with him.

Funny, that guy has a few cars it seems...




I actually use this pic for my sad little obsession.



Not what you think...although without Sniper's avatar I'm lost at the moment...

Very cool...
There is a program called Flame Painter that I've seen.  It can give you backgrounds such as that.
Whatever you use... they look great!

Thanks to Wizard, I had some offline time killer material today.

The TVR Griffth does a hell of a wheelie, and will hold it thru 4rd, and well over 100mph.


69 Vette, struggles a little, but I found if you bounce it(gas, brake, gas), it'll get up pretty good, just won't hold it for long.


I like this one.

The Challenger will barely get them off the ground with a hard launch, but going over a hill will get it up there.




Got a little carried away.






Gotta love torque.


Another rally car addition.

It's a good thing that Lotus' windows are rolled up. If I walked by and saw that douche posing next to his car, I would dump my shake all over his seats. They do have milkshakes in Europe right?

lol, I'm not that mean, My douche baggery reaches it's limit whispering loudly in my wife's ear "That is the car people get when they can't afford the Lamborgini I have" and laughing as we stroll by.



When my moms husband got a new Vette a few years back I told mom the joke I knew about what do you say to a middle aged guy with a Vette. " awww sorry about your penis not working anymore but nice car". Me and him don't get along so well. Apparently the comment was somewhat cutting As the car is now ten years old he bought it brand new and it now has under 7000 miles on the odometer.

I always liked "I could have gotten one of those if my quarter hadn't stuck in the machine."
