Another forum I’m on has a thread like this that is updated multiple times a day with just cool finds from across the internet. It’s pretty fun, sometimes NSFW, but always interesting. Thought I’d start it up here and see how it goes.

To start off:

Time. . . This guy may have too much.

(hand built miniature V12 running motor, not in English, but still amazing imo)

(turbo pro street bike. . . check the trap ;D )

(drifting on a motorcycle, this guy has some talent)

(by FAR my favorite Siri advertisement to date)

(Time lapse video of earth from space, pretty cool imo)

I saw that V12 from a link on motorgeek, cool stuff… funny how its a dual cam pushrod 2 overhead valve design

#3

^ Yea, I thought you’d like it. Pretty crazy.

Speaking of motors, guess this is how some of them end. . .

throw this in the title too (just edit your first post, and it will edit the thread title)

I’ve seen a few videos from this guy and he does have talent, but I am more impressed with Casey Stoner doing this during a MotoGP race. He’s the only one that I have seen take this risk regularly. Not even the legendary Valentino Rossi will take the chance during a race…

powersliding a bike is INSANE. That’s pretty cool.

I slide my RS4 around corners, but I couldn’t imagine doing it at 100 mph on a bike. Scary.

in other news…

^that one is pretty funny, and agreed, power sliding at those speeds on a bike is beyond nuts!

For you fellow two wheel racers - simple stuff but always interesting. I had one of the first set of Michelen’s multi compound tires on my track bike (for the public) and a very similar DVD came with the tires. Cool stuff even if somewhat obvious.

Smart Cars with body kits - add the Busa turbo kit I’ve seen on some and you have one hell of a fun toy imo. Please disregard the song that accompanies the vid, I couldn’t find one without a song.

bwahahaha

Apparently hit a curb at 35mph, but still great esp to think about all the people that go nuts over the stretched look.

Then there was this guy, who looks almost as dumb…

And man, what a cop car! (weird tail pipes though)

I like fast instead. I get that it’s different strokes for different folks though.

just noticed the S6?..damn that sucks.

funny though, shows how prevalent Audis are in Europe. An Audi falls off a ledge and almost lands on…another Audi.

That S5 is gorgeous motorsports, any higher resolution photos you could add into your post or the such?

Beem. . . any comments on what these are from or ideas?

^perfect metaphorical personification for B5 S4 guys. BT=Big ego…but still some old, ugly, thing.

#16

Reminds me of a pump station relay used to move LARGE quantities of crude oil at a decent rate over LONG stretches of pipeline. Looks a lot like what I’ve seen in the past.

#17

they’re a compressor (vs a pump), maybe for a plant compressed air system. One big stage, at most you’ll get 45-50psig out of it

#18

^Cool, just didn’t know. It was just funny to see a pic like that and was intrigued.

This video is pretty great. “How to tie a bow tie”
