Ice-Racing Camaro

This video turned up at just the right time. I’ve been thinking about booking driver training on a frozen lake in Sweden and came across this clip of a Camaro on ice

Not only does it look like huge fun but the driver, Jocke Gasfot, is giving it the beans. Nice sound, too!

2011 vs 2010 Ferrari F1 car graphic

Italian website marca.com has a great graphic of the 2011 Ferrari F1 car comparing it with the 2010 car. It’s a really simple idea that works very well – move a slider to see how the car looks this year compared with last

The site’s in Italian but the graphic is self-explanatory

1988 Manx Rally Patrick Snijers BMW E30 M3

This video clip never ceases to make me smile. Patrick Snijers is so obviously on top of the car as he lets it drift and slide on the Manx Rally stages

As the commentator says, it’s “Exhibition Stuff” and it’s performed in one of BMWs finest cars, the E30 M3. Four-cylinder cars never sounded better!

Start ya Bastard

My Product of the Week – and possibly Best Product Name of All Time, Ever – is the romantically-named “Start Ya Bastard

It comes from (you’ll never guess…) Australia and clearly scores much higher in the naming stakes than boring oldĀ Easy Start

Contains 25% Ether
