Crap......

There is no way that car was doing 150MPH (240km/h).

I have driven that fast on quite a number of occasions and things outside go past a LOT quicker than that.

awesome stuff
Would love to think I'm still capable of driving a classic like that if/when I reach her age.

Wow, what a woman.

At 101 years of age she can still change the plugs AND the oil!

I can show you some girls in their 20's that can't change a flat tyre.

An inspiration to us all

Whats going on here? Is he using a delay box or something? You need to go to about 3.45 for the run, the other runs seem the same.

Also watch the shifter it punches second real early and the box on the right seems to light up when it takes off again

Default Re: Can you watch this video without crying?

that is pretty upsetting, loved watching the F111's do their thing, very unique aircraft. Seems like a totally stupid thing to do but it was all in the fine print of the deal as they said. Why not put them into museums? Are people really going to come and try to gain decades old military secrets from them?

Not following why this had to be done, recycling etc would be a MUCH better option.

Red face Crazy Goodtime Falcon EL XR6 in Paddock - Music.

Hi guys, Just posted a video up to my new youtube account, (Crazy Goodtime Falcon EL XR6 in Paddock)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0W9vExUf4c

I loves Bikes, Cars and Music. I put them together with my own music so I don't infringe music copyrights B.S.

No screaming engines in my video, just a nagging woman.. to spoil my fun. You can hear the engine not working hard on grass under the music.

If you like ALT music go here, just started :-
http://www.youtube.com/user/EmptyHal...s?feature=mhsn
will be uploading my BMW R1150RT fast run with music soon.
