I thought this was a very interesting video. It is the milling process to carve out the block for the Veyron's W16 engine. Quite a remarkable piece of engineering.
Very impressive video, goes for about 10 minutes.

Video here

Default Incar from Morgan Park Raceway

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKWJJKJ2B3Y

Thought That I would share a bit of footage from a recent outing to Morgan Park Raceway at Warwick QLD.

The footage was taken from the dash of a friends car, And the last lap and a 1/2 has some great footage of the car in front :

I had a little adventure off the bitumen due to over heated brakes disappearing on a tight right hander, but the end footage of the back of my car tearing away from him down the straight made it all worth while.

Let me know what you think

Thumbs up Battle at Kruger, Buff Vs Lions

This is an amazing clip of a herd of Buffalo taking on a pride of lions with a few twists in Kruger National Park.
Goes for 8 mins but worth watching.

I saw this the other week, it's a fantastic bit of footage. I would have loved to have been there and saw it live, it would have been incredible.

They use the LS1 mtrs in the fox bodied mustangs in the US because of its dimensions & power out put to the Windsors.

im amazing and a little suss at how quck this Executive gets to 100 km/h, totally stock with a raptor supercharger... first he does the burst at 75km.h, but look closely at the 0-100 where he gets some revs up and let her go, the speedo goes to 120 in what seems 3 seconds.
