My Classic Car did an episode when Denis visited this thing. Looked like a whole hell of a lot of fun.

Side note, if any of you got that Totinos commercial in the beginning, it was absolutely ridiculous.

Spoiler alert: Blood Ravens are actually Hiigarans who got sucked into the warp, were sent back in time to fight in WWII against the Panzer Elite, then stole a nazi time machine to go into the future and save mankind from an army of Lobster-Elephants and other impossible creatures.

Rated R.

Basically, they don't know how to setup a boost reference/tune a carb. The cam has nothing to do with it.

Going back a page with the show queen poo poo, but you're right, it's blower surge.

However, it's totally intentional and has nothing to do with a wrong setup. That's the sound they want at a car show, and it's badass as all get out. No one expects a car like that to rip off an 8.xx, it's just there to frighten women and make old men angry.

Enjoyable video, well-edited and it did have some interesting shots. Any idea what it was shot with? I'm going to take a wild guess and say an EOS 5D MkII because that seems to be everybody's go-to camera for (relatively) inexpensive high-quality HD stuff but obviously Vimeo isn't the greatest venue on which to judge that.

Yep, sir, he is. Sounds corny but if you check out his bio and videos, you'll see that there's no lie there.

Such was the brilliance of Robert Ridgely

As pointed out in a comment for this video on Jalopnik, he played the hangman in Blazing Saddles and Men In Tights and did an amazing amount of cartoon voice acting as well. Oh yeah, and Colonel James in Boogie Nights :quagmire:

Probably wouldn't have sold that well since the sheiks would've had to drive themselves for once instead of having a chauffeur

I think the funniest part of this video is that a lot of accidents seem to happen really slowly and no one even tries to take evasive action.

Yeah, it's also like everyone simply has blinders on and only ever looks straight ahead and never to the left or right when coming into an intersection.

Probably the saddest thing on the whole of the internet.

E: In regards to Q1:

quote:

In the series of shots you can see the cars onboard extinguisher rolling down the track, maybe 20m down the road, the seat harness sheared off in the impact which knocked the driver out.

I was amazed at how long the response team took to reach his lifeless body.

"I'll just spray randomly into the cockpit where a driver should be... odd we haven't found him yet... dum de dum..."

Then that guy in black comes running out and freaks the gently caress out on them for doing gently caress all.
