There is an orange Lamborghini Gallardo that hangs out at Star City Casino. If that car does not get you laid, what will? It is such a sweet car.

There is also one of the Harley Davidson - Ford F150. It is a F150 with HD Rims, HD logos in the headrests, badged as a Ford and HD. Painted two tone Black and Silver.

Now I have been in a friends R32 GT-R at 322km/h ... and that's moving ... I'd have to guess the guy driving the F1 that day was going quicker than that ... he caught the yellow GT-R and the Ferrari and passed them.

Crazy ... NSW Numberplates "MCLARN".

Took me a while to lift my jaw out of my lap.
What colour was the F1 you spotted?

those 962s are nuts! i want one of them!

throw back to the good days of lemans when they were running high horsepower/high downforce cars... just look at the frontal area! you'd easily feel the thing drop heaps from downforce at speed!
