Special thanks for you AlienDB7 and naturely zippo' and draak's webspace for the CTS-V video... it was one of my request.

It's funny because I saw it also this Police Gallardo from CTV news am. I looked it just before I went to the job.

Good point 5vz-fe on the lambo polizia car... but on second thought, wouldn't the sound of the V10 make the organ being delivered at least 10yrs younger?

The patient can probably brag about his organ being delivered on a lambo gallardo!

keke, not if the donor is a women......her organ will prolly think that the car traveling at 120km/h is too dangerous, and decide to go on its destructive mode LOL!!

That's what I thought, coz usually discovery programs are 1 hour long. But don't count on my answer coz I missed such an important program <kicking myself hard>

"The Limit" is only the second part of the 3 parts series. Each part is ~46min.

Part 1:
Revealing the top-secret thinking behind F1 racing, the BMW Williams team explains its inner workings; British engineers turned a neglected sport into a multi-million dollar business; highly skilled British workers are being tempted away by foreign teams.

Part 2 (The Limit):
Formula One cars are similar to aircraft, but engineering is now lagging behind in many crucial ways; has the technology of "normal" road cars usurped that of the F1 industry in the past decade?

Part 3:
Explore the long running argument about who actually wins the race - the driver or the car; discover how electronic telemetry has overtaken traditional forms of communication; is it only a matter of time before we see the Formula One driver-less car?

Nothing spectacular on AMS this week, except for a 8 compact cars master test:

auto motor und sport TV invited 25 motor magazine editors from 16 countries to put 8 members of the compact class to the test: the Ford Focus, Fiat Stilo, Renault MÃ©gane, Peugeot 307, Toyota Corolla, Opel Astra, VW Golf and Mazda3 â€“ all powered by diesel engines, their displacement ranging from 1.6 to 2.0 liters.

Auto Motor und Sport - 8 Compacts Master Test.avi (21.8M) has been uploaded to zippo's web space. I kinda wonder if Jeremy was invited to the master test, would be funny to see what he says about the german way of testing the cars. It's just amazing how much effort they put into designing the tests.

Very interesting!! Not the most spectacular test but certainly a very usefull one.
Lots of people of my age are looking for these kinda cars, so if anyone is searching, I'll be sure to send them this video

As a matter of fact, I have done so allready.

Thanks AlienDB7, glad you've posted this!!

Glad you like the video zippo, if you want more review of "everyday cars", I'll watch out for them in the future. AMS has a good mix of everyday cars and exotics, sort of reminds me of Driven but without all the british humour.

I just edited and encoded another feature from last night's AMS, really not sure if I should upload it though. It's pretty informative but scary how they managed to open cars from econoboxes to porsches...

Auto Motor und Sport - Use of Walkie-Talkies to Steal Cars

Tell me what you think..

shockwave racing · 06-15-2004, 01:01 AM

AlienDB7 · 06-15-2004, 02:11 AM

Okay, it's uploaded to zippo's webspace.
