Default Racing Vette, Gallardo, Hot Rods

EDIT: WTF?! These should have been the thumbs, dont know how that happened. Ill try and fix it tomorrow, but the links work anyway.


First up, a raced out Vette....well, sort of. It has a full tube frame chassis built by Riley & Scott and a full fiberglass body. 350 small block Chevy bored and stroked to 406. This is one bad ass car!!





Gallardo, funny thing, the key for the Gallardo looks almost identical to the key for my Audi LOL Too bad the engines arent more closely related.




Hot Rods I saw at a show recently. Check out the gear shift on this first green car (next 2 pics) LOL



Little Fiat Abarth, wicked cool car, saw it at a French/Italian car show, but it rained so not many photos turned out well.

For the thumbs, please note imageshack added a second type of code, you should have used the one with [img] [/img] and not [img=]

BTW, thanks for the pics! Too bad they are so blurry (Gallardo and Vette)

in one car review they stated the only thing that let the car down, was for an exclusive expensive car, they used the same key as a audi.
