It’s not everyday that we feel compelled to post a video from Japan that doesn’t have human jigsaw puzzles, gratuitous on-screen graphics, chimps outsmarting humans, nut shots, breakaway floorboards, or chikan, but I thought this made the grade: It’s a reverse entry drift in a Japanese auto competition that had the locals jumping for joy. And really, the reaction is better than the original action. Hey guys, simmer down. It’s a car, not a squid raping a schoolhouse. – Auto Blog, via Car Domain. Thanks, Drew.
And now we bring you a trucking of the more literal sort. I’ve always complained about people that double-park their SUVs, but I’ve never seen someone try to do it while THERE WERE TWO OTHER CARS already in those spots. And of course, she drives off. And she didn’t even leave a note! How do I know it’s a woman? Are you serious? Are we watching the same video here? –Yep Yep.
Seriously, there’s nothing funny about what happens to this animal. It’s sad, really. But…damn, that horsey gets some mean air. It’s a fine follow-up to our Car v. Horse showdownfrom two weeks ago, and it was nice to see Car finally pull even. I can see why the Mexicans lost at the Alamo now. That was the Mexicans, right?via.
I have a hard time feeling sorry for coyotes (especially the ones that make such great hood ornaments), but this poor little bugger got more than he could handle when he stepped onto the track at the Toyota Arizona Proving Grounds and suddenly found himself on the ass end of one of life’s cruel 1 vs. 16 matchups. The background of this image is obviously the victor of this exchange, driven by Joe Gibbs Racing’s very own Brad “Road Runner” Coleman.
“It just started smoking like crazy. And it smelled terrible. I didn’t see anything in the mirror, so I was like, ‘I wonder where it went?’”
It went nowhere, Brad. And sure, your radiator’s full of coyote guts and your engine might be shot, but look on the bright side: that’s a new scarf for your wife. Too bad Arizona is hardly scarf weather. And honestly, this little guy probably had a better, less painful demise then the other Coyotes in the area.
If I was driving down the street in a Japanese automobile and I was challenged by this stupid family of horses, I’m doing one of two things: jamming on the gas or stopping, because if you make a half-assed charge at a horse, nothing good can come of it:
The two smaller horses swerved to avoid the vehicle, but the third — a coloured larger horse bringing up the rear — made the last minute decision to jump over it.via, via.
Oh, so a white horse would never do a such a thing? Is that what I just heard? Sure, white horses can get away with anything. Did I mention this happened in Israel? I just turned to the BLACK JEW HORSE section in my notebook and it’s totally blank. You’d think there’d be like, I dunno, nine or ten of those for a rainy day. Whatever.
Carolina Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis has a very plain name, so he made sure to stand out with his souped up 1975 Caprice Classic, painted metallic purple with 26-inch rims and a plethora of electronic wizardry in the dash. It’s one of many cars that Davis owns. Well, it was before it was stolen.
Davis told the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD) that someone stole the car on Saturday between 1:30 a.m. and 10:45 a.m.
The purple car is described as a two-door convertible model with a tag of HA73SN. The vehicle is worth $136,000.
It features many custom details including a special steering wheel with a football, and a painting of Davis at a desk with a Panther sprawled in front of it.via.
Man, that sounds like every single car in North Carolina! Whoever stole this certainly can’t be driving it anyplace. I do like the football steering wheel. I might have to do something similar with the Hyundai. via. imgs.
