This is an absolute crazy thing. The video is apparently from Serbia, and that guy is doing absolute insane things in a car with only two wheels, or rather, on a car with just two wheels that is missing most of its body. It looks crazy, and slight bit of funny and cool too, though I have no idea how that “cool” part ever came into being for this half-car driving.

This Chevrolet Caprice decked up as a Mr. Pacman car sure is a piece of fanboyism, and the work is sort of appreciable, but somehow it isn’t much of an eye catcher. The car has a red-yellow paintjob with Mr. Pacman making a prominent appearance on the hood and the sides, and the same theme is carried to the interiors where the seats are decked in the same red-yellow theme with Pacman clearly visible. There’s Pacman even on the rims, wonder dots the car collects.
About a week back, we saw the smallest working model train, and now it is time to see it in all its miniature glory. The video, uploaded by the train’s creator, David Smith shows the miniature train chugging along its path, and also has a few interesting comparisons to put things into perspective for this 1:35200 scale model.

Over the past few days, we have seen quite a few motorcycles powered by giant engines, and now it’s the V12 powered Honda CBX built by Andreas Georgeades. The man is no stranger to creating such monstrous motorcycles, he already has created three Ferrari engine motorcycles, two of which have V6 engines and one has a V8. The next step apparently is the 2000cc V12 he made by welding together two V6 CBX motors.
What you see here is a “perfected” wind powered supercharger created by LeMons team Freerange Racing. The supercharger is made from HVAC ducting blades connected to a flex plate and geared to the starter shaft. This supercharger pushes 1PSI of boost at 65 mph, and we wonder if it gets to be called an environmentally friendly supercharger; you know, because it’s wind powered and all that.
Now this seems all suitable and convenient, after spending a lifetime running on the roads, retired buses can still sit on the sides of the roads and act as bus shelters. Artist Christopher Fennell has created one such bus shelter in Atlanta using exteriors from three decommissioned school buses, the seating inside comes from an old city bus.
There happen to be just two rotary carbon fiber weavers in existence, and Toyota has put one of them to work for creating the carbon fiber A-pillar for the Lexus LFA supercar. The V10 powered supercar is impressive, but watching the LFA’s A-pillar form is quite mesmerizing. Video after the jump!
Carpooling is a bright idea, Carpool LED top lights, not so much. The concept by designers Xi Ouyang, Yuanbiao Jin, Yao Sun and Yelu Liu takes isn’t bad at heart, it is bad in practice. Carpool could be super efficient if all seats in the car are taken, and to take care of that part, the concept envisions top lights, quite similar to the bright yellow Taxi signs, that also clearly show the number of vacant seats in the car. So the carpool could let more people sit in, and people would know if there’s a vacant seat in the car. Also, an embedded fan harnesses energy from the wind to keep the lights running. And also, this is all quite dumb.
Photographer Laurent Nivalle has brought out the beauty in a century of Bugatti through his photographs that capture the marque in a very unique and striking way. Nivalle’s photographs keep focus on the car’s mechanical part, rather than the complete car. The photographer has not used digital tools on the images for his ‘1909 Bugatti 2009’ series, but has created them in a vintage, and vivid look, making them a lot more appealing.
Recently, MotorTrend put three tuned muscle cars to the test, and well, there’s nothing like a drag race to soup things up a bit. The competing cars were the 705hp Chevrolet Camaro HPE650, the 725hp Shelby Mustang GT500 super snake, and a 700hp SpeedFactory Dodge Challenger SRT8. Nothing like pure muscle roaring down the road!
