Is this a good photoshop swap? Or a 2nd photo from a good photographer? It's a photoshopped VW over the Stang
AJ scoped it out, and noticed that the bug is not completely hiding the Mustang's front fender Same exact setting as the bottom photo, and the Mustang is smaller than the VW so it's possible that the vw is photoshopped over the stang This VW was photographed by Iris Antonio according to the sources of the photo I've found .. but like AJ pointed out, the but is a clever photoshop that didn't quite
there is integral coolness in VW's... but it takes some work to make it show

Ever wonder how safe the roads are when old people can't see over the steering wheel? How safe can they drive when looking between the spokes?
Did you notice it's a right hand drive car? WTH? It's not just me is it? The steering wheel sure looks to be in front of the short one. Sorry for the lousy quality, but cell phone cameras still aren't as good at long distance shots through back windows as a camera

The BP-4W engine remained at 1.8 L (110 cu in) but received several minor updates. The engine compression ratio was raised from 9.0:1 to 9.5:1 by adding slightly domed pistons; the intake cam was changed to a solid lifter design with a stronger cam; the intake runners in the head were straightened and the intake manifold was mounted higher up. Mazda's Variable Intake Control System was introduced, which effectively gave a long narrow intake manifold at low rpm for better swirl, changing to a short, free-flowing manifold at high rpm for maximum breathing. Power output of the new engine was quoted at 106 kW (142 bhp) with 116 lbf·ft (157 N·m) of torque.
The 1.6 L (98 cu in) B6 engine remained available in Europe and Japan.
The base-model 1.8 L (110 cu in) NB could reach 60 mph (97 km/h) in 7.5 s and had a top speed of 130 mph (210 km/h).
In 1999, Mazda celebrated the 10th anniversary of the MX-5 with the 10th Anniversary Model, a limited edition featuring some until-then exclusive features, namely a six-speed transmission and Bilstein shock absorbers; performance figures were slightly different, with faster acceleration but lower top speed than the standard 1.8 L (110 cu in) NB.

The Winter Blues...
Living in Florida the last 30 years I sometimes forget that this is what awaits many of you for the next four or five months... my sincere condolences. But chin up! Time flies and spring will be here before you know it! Besides now you have a good block of time for those bike and bike related projects to get done. So have at it... and while we're on the subject, send me some pictures of whatever projects you've got going on. Might make for some interesting posts!

Mazda Mx5 Cars Second generation (NB) Parts 1
In 1998, Mazda released the second-generation MX-5, production code NB, for the 1999 model year. The NB featured a more powerful engine and external styling cues borrowed from the third generation Mazda RX-7 model. Prices in the United States, the main market for the MX-5, started at US$19,770 (US$26,300 in 2008 adjusted for inflation).
Although many parts of the interior and body were different, the most notable changes were the headlights: the first generation's retractable headlights no longer passed pedestrian safety tests and were replaced by fixed ones. The new car grew slightly in width compared to the earlier model; its dimensions were: length 3,945 mm (155.3 in), width 1,678 mm (66.1 in), height 1,228 mm (48.3 in) and wheelbase 2,265 mm (89.2 in). Without options, the NB weighed 1000|kg 2300 lb. The new generation was slightly more aerodynamic than the original, with a Cd figure of 0.36.
The NB continued to employ four-wheel independent suspension, with enlarged anti-roll bars at the front and rear, but the wheels, tires and brakes were significantly upgraded: anti-lock braking system was offered as an option; alloy wheels were now 14 in (360 mm) or 15 in (380 mm) in diameter and 6 in (150 mm) in width, depending on the trim package; sports models were equipped with the larger wheels and 195/50VR15 tires.

Hands free tire mounting! This isn't the only one on the market, but it was the first I've sever seen This tire seat is comfortable too! The yellow and red rims are interesting, I haven't seen any 2 spoke rim before... I wonder about the balance The above was particularly impressive, good concept for a display If you have balanced tires, like I have, you'll probably appreciate the full range of

I'm pretty sure this is our first Icelandic Bike! And what a great way to start! A lot of people didn't/don't like the styling of these bikes. I don't know why exactly. Yes it was very different at the time and there hasn't been much like it since but I personally wish there was more bold design like this from Japan.

Reader Ride. Ducati Pantah 500.
Greg Writes in:
Ian Fallon wrote for the Ducati Museum -
Introduced as a 500 in 1979, the Pantah engine was designed and built by engineers Fabio Taglioni and Gian Luigi Mengoli. It formed the basis of the Ducati production/racing program for years to come. So advanced was the design that it was still in production throughout the 1980s ... Pantah used a toothed belt camshaft drive instead of the earlier bevel-gears. Other important technical developments were the racing-inspired 60° included valve angle and the forged one-piece crankshaft. These features improved the bike’s reliability and made the design more suitable for competition.
I have owned this bike for three years and love it. The camshafts on this motor makes it feel like it free revs and it wants to go past its 10,000rpm redline. The suspension and frame work very well and will keep up with any of my friends larger displacement bikes in the twisties. It is an easy bike to push and control and I believe one of the more beautiful. If you get a chance to ride one you will not be disappointed. This was the first belt drive Ducati and the basis of every Ducati motor since.
Thanks for a great site.

M2-1028 Street Competition Roadster (FEB-94) Limited 1/300 M2-CORP released it's third Roadster in early 1994, based on the original "Jinba Ittai" concept made by Toshihiko Hirai. This was the track ready Roadster. (The USA got a cheaper version known as the R-Package. ) Offered in Chaste White or Brilliant Black only, this Roadster used the new 1.8L powerplant with upgraded pistons, and camshafts, and other similar goodies as the previous 1001, & 1002. However this Roadster had an output of close to 150 hp!! And included 14" Eunos Factory Rims with a unique gunmetal paint with polished lip. The only real changes were a new set of lightweight side mirrors, MOMO Steering Wheel, Centerless console, Racing seats, racing tow hook, a set of front & rear lower lip spoilers, (R-Package) and a newly designed "Duck-Tail" trunklid with integrated spoiler (the M2-1028 trunklid was made from aluminium and weighed only 7.7-lbs. very light weight from original lid 15.5-lbs. ). Similar design used on the NB's. Also came with a 6-point rollcage, but no soft-top (instead, you got a tarp that stretched over the cage). :shock: With optional FRP Hardtop with plexiglass rear window for more weight savings coming in at only 19-lbs.

the Top Truck challenge jeep of Matt Thorson, 56" tires, and one hell of a roll cage
This view really grabbed my attention, look at the guy next to the fron tire, that is one big Jeep! watch this video to see the type of crazy challenge course this kind of vehicle competes on
A couple of small businesses that brought interesting things to SEMA to spread the word about
These look like a great idea for the hotter southern states, keeps out the sun and won't blow off because of some cool loops that pull around the side mirrors Don't know what you'd use if for, but looks like fun Seems like a lot of fun for buzzing around the pits at the races
2011 Honda CB1000R
The Honda CB1000R is a new take on a timeless concept. A no-nonsense superbike that's not afraid to show off its muscle where everyone can see it. We took a CBR1000RR powerplant—and retuned it for even more midrange power and torque. Then we built a special chassis that puts the engine out front and center, and that also lets you sit more upright. The result is one of the most versatile

Traditional signs painted by Aaron, variety, medium, and style are no problem!
The Greenqueso.com isn't running right now, so instead, look at his work on Flikr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicesigns/sets/72157594223628156/ I love gold leaf, it looks so damn professional and elegant 5 years of professional (working for the man!) sign painting has endowed Aaron with lots of experience painting on completely different materials, and in different styles. Obviously, right?

Fantastic Historical Boardtrack Photos
From a REALLY cool site with historical images of all kinds called SHORPY.COM The Caption reads "Fred "Freddy" Fretwell of Washington on a Harley-Davidson"
Fair warning. Don't go over there unless you have some time to kill. It's addictive.
Here's a great grandstand shot (of a car race obviously) to give you an idea of the scale of the the track sizes. Pretty amazing. Must have been quite a spectacle for it's time.
