Awesome Thread... [Automotive Edition]

What happens when Estonians get their hands on some old GAZ trucks? They rally them. At speeds that wouldn't embarrass a traditional rally car.

Theres a part of the course called The Backdoor, which is basically just an 11 foot vertical wall you have to go up


That guy is pretty nuts
 
LOL, truck rally racing is better. ;)
 
last weekend I attended the 50'th anniversary of my local hillclimb which featured 2 x Audi S1's, 1 x Lancia Delta S4, 1 x Maserati MC12 GT1 piloted by Michael Bartels and last but not least the Kremer Racing Porsche 997 K3s.

An impressions video someone from the bergcup team made.

Fast forward to 7:00 to see the crash. Looks like he didn't begin to adjust the steering the other direction in time.

N?RGURBRING! :rofl:

Also, that Supra with a LFA fron bumper looks like a chinese Panamera. Just no.
 
This episode was kinda meh. :|
I like Tony Angelo, and there was not enough of him.
 
I actually fell asleep halfway through it and woke up the roadkill extra ending...

Now that's what I'm talking about - a car being driven as it was intended to and not being pampered in some air conditioned garage to collect dust and appreciation...

BTW, this is one of five CLK GTR Roadsters ever made...
 
Can't wait for the second part to see them rebuild the engine a second time.

Yeah, they said they about pig pen. That truck was sold off if I remember correctly.

Didn't they also say that about the land speed Camaro, nascarlo, and draguar?

Agree 100%. Garage queens sort of depress me because I just love driving too much just to let something awesome just sit there...so the thought of all of these great specimens just sitting round collecting dust is just blasphemy. Oh, and my god that noise... Drool-worthy.

I suppose with there only being 5 of these they are stupid expensive yea?

RoadKill is not great on follow-up. Rotsun is an exception.

Ah, but you can clearly see in the preview for the next month that they are driving it again.
