I'm still looking for a gallery of photos of this Bonneville record setting kombi VW microbus


Very cool photography style, different photographers, great musclecars


the Mustang photo came from http://goodoldvalves.tumbler.com/ but I didn't mark where I got the Challenger photo from

1930's? motorcycle soccer

I didn't record the source... sorry!

John Noonan broke the motorcycle speed record at El Mirage on his Hayabusa, 242 mph

thanks to Bruce from JBA for the photo! See the terrific gallery Bruce has on the JBA website http://extremejba.jbaracing.com/index.php/2010/05/21/scta-season-opener-at-el-mirage-dry-lake/#respond

Gotta be photoshopped, there's no way they'd take an F1 racecar onto a beach

the Bean Bandit Ford Mainline, #296 XF/PRO, because it doesn't wear pretty paint doesn't mean it isn't cool and fast. I love patina'd old race cars




The above shot had me recalling the pose that Snoopy strikes as his alter ego, Joe Cool









An unchopped belly tank, ready to go under the sawzall, and become a dry lake legend





Car club plaques on the back of one of Gene Winfield's race car



can someone tell me what causes highways and freeways to have designated "Safety Corridors" with traffic fines doubled?

I found lots of these in Arizona, and only have ever seen one here in California. I couldn't see any reason for these sections to have any difference from the mile before or after.

Are they just money makers? Double the fines, get cops to heavily patrol those areas, and rack up revenue from speeders?
