Daily Sightings
Lets make this a 37 page long thread.

Didn't realize how serious this one was till I did a double take. No glass, no interior only guages and a manual automatic shifter, full cage, and oh yeah, freaking wheelie bars. Driving around on the street.
At my work, where everyone gets paid, except me.
Lowered GS/Z06 with color matched wheels.
Saw this on the way to school today, nothing special, but still a favorite.
Lotus

One, there's no need for wheelie bar with those rear tires. Two, they are mounted so far forward and up that the bumper would hit anyways. Three, he can't drag race without windows.

As Carlos would say, all GTR owners should park in handicap zones.

I would love to have one of these with the V8. It is such a beautiful car.

"The" V8? AFAIK, Lotus hasn't had a V8 since the Esprit.
This just in! Lotus to off 611HP V8 Hybrid.

That's the car I'm talking about. "The Esprit V8 used Lotus' self developed all-aluminum, twin-turbocharged (Garrett T3/60 turbos) 90-degree V-8, Code-named Type 918, in front of the same Renault transmission as before with no Chargecooler."

He probably has slicks for the track, and the bumper looks like it's been dragged, don't you think? Windows... I don't know, maybe he has nets. You really think he's just a poser?
Respond to my welding thread!

I posted a pic of this chopped van a as he exited the fwy a few weeks ago. It was at Cruisin for a Cure last weekend and Fuddrucker's tonight, and I got a few of the motor.

Sweet. That thing has a V8! I'll bet it can do a wheelie with that weight distribution.

Here's some from cell from long ago. They're cute.
You don't see quite as many as these on the roads anymore . . .
I wonder of McJack ever finished this thing . . .
Now that's what I call a safety record. . .
