Things like this make me want to find the closest person to me and punch them in the face. Fortunately, there is no one within arm’s distance of me. So I am typing this a blood gushes from the lacerations on my forehead due to repeatedly beating my lobe on the desk.

This obscenely tasteless display of golfing transportation was built by the ever classily named, Bad Ass Golf Carts. It’s painted Palms Green, has Gucci inserts, LCD monitors, chrome rimz, Escalade grillz and more pimptacular features.

At this point, why even bother getting something like this. Just pick up a Honda Fit to drive around the course, at least it has air conditioning. Use the extra money you save on ED drugs and hair plugs.

Also note, dude in Nascar “varsity” coat admiring it… perfect target market. (Sorry Jim!)

More ridiculous pictures after the jump.

Since it’s Saturday as I write this, I thought it appropriate to find something a little different, but still pertinent to current automotive events. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you…the TANGO! Read the rest of this entry »

Seriously? People really ask questions like this? This guy just posted on an RX-8 forum, wanting to know if it was possible to stretch his 18in tires to fit on to a 19in wheel.

Big fail. One of the best comments: “sell your car. buy a vw.”

Check out the thread here to follow the hillarity that will ensue.

Today’s WTFF (what the f Friday) moment brought to you by Harley Davidson and Porsche.  To clear the air, trikes are for Nancys.  After the age of three you should never again be seen on a trike.

I ripped this from Motorpasion, which is in Spanish (I think), so don’t ask me for any details.  All I know, is that is a Harley trike with a 911 ass.

Michael Arndt apparently has a surplus of a few things:

1. matchsticks, 956,000 to be precise

2. glue sticks, 1,698

3. time, six years

This guy made a scale model of a Mercedes McLaren 4/41 Formula One car. This German man set out over six years with six thousand Euro and built this full scale model in his kitchen. It can be torn down in 45 seperate pieces for ease transportation to other matchbuilding conventions. FYI, matchbuilding conventions are only slighly cooler than comic book/Star Wars conventions.

Keep going for more pictures…

Discovered on YouTube today was this video of a Bugatti Veyron getting the Flintstone push to the nearest gas station after running out of fuel. At full throttle, the Veyron burns fuel at a staggering 2.1 mpg which empties the tank in 12 minutes. If I were ever to buy one, I don’t think I could even make a quick trip to the grocery store without running empty, which is fitting, since I wouldn’t have any money to buy food for the rest of my short-lived days.

On a quick visit to TheTruthAboutCars.com, Brock Yates’ article hit me like a ton of bricks. An angry, cantankerous pile of bricks. Mr. Yates is known in almost every major automotve circle on earth, and yet he found something, or rather, MANY things to get angry excited about. Not only was Car and Driver a “pale shadow of its former self,” but Yates made sure to endear his new audience with a style of writing that can only be feuled by a Barry-Bondsesque kind of ‘roid rage. I’ll be the first to admit that I love being lambasted by a grumpy old man, but Yates took things further. Read the rest of this entry »
