Sorry. Travman beat you to it this morning on the Misc. Cool Italian Bikes thread. ;D And yes, I've added that to the list of shit I'll never own. [laugh]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Meh...I don't believe anything those guys claim anymore.

They sold a set of Ti rods and pistons to a racer dude....told him the NCR markings wern't on the rods because "We had to stop production of a set of F1 rods for Torro Rosso to build these and didn't have time to mark them".  Probably sounded good to the guy, but I can't imagine the arrogance on claiming to make Ferrari's Ti rods for an F1 engine, let alone "stopping production" so they could re-tool to make a set of duc rods.


Thats like someone claiming they worked for NASA, and were in the middle of fabricating a critical component on the space shuttle....but they stopped building it mid-stream so they could cab up a cup holder for their prius.

It's pretty though....

The space shuttles could have used that cup holder. They were pretty sparse on the interior. Not even any 3M post it note pads. Lots of switches though. ;D

This one definitely deserves its own dedicated thread. It's nice to have it in the Misc. Italian thread too in case someone misses the dedicated thread.

Even if I weren't sending my daughter to Clemson this year, I still couldn't afford one.

Especially the $69.7K 132 HP, 278 lbs. model.  But if I could?  Yea, Hell yea!
