STILLEN GT-R: Targa Newfoundland Rally - Brigus
Steve Millen's favorite rally stage of the Targa event. Brigus is a very small town, roads are extremely skinny. STILLEN GT-R did well, despite its size, the rain and wet conditions, and the extremely tight course

Found on SpeedHunters.com Blog - Mazda RX7 FC3S Time Attack Build - Who owns this?
If you want to see a bigger pic, drag that picture into a new tab or window and it opens up about 600 pixels wide.
Who's car is this? That thing is nasty. Wow. Blogger nation, help, shop name, anything would be nice as this RX7 is sick.
***Quoted from SpeedHunters.com blog***
I don't have much information on this car, but it's a pretty rad looking build for a tin top race car. All the front subframe is aluminum, and it all looks hand fabricated too. Anyone else have any more information on this car?

VIDEO - Terrifying Sniper Prank on Japanese TV - WORST PANIC FACE EVER!
A Japanese hidden camera show called 'Panic Face King' goes extreme on this poor guy, luring him into a fake meeting in which everyone is killed by a sniper except for him. He is definitely the panic face king.
It takes a while to get to the point but this beats PUNK'D hands down. Watch it again and look at that dudes damn face. I can't even say "oh I would have played it cooler than that" because damn it that looks fairly real.
Love it.

Wow, when you first look at it, you think, wow, that's an axle or something. Then you realize it doesn't make sense and doesn't look like a BMW part. Then it hits you. DAMN THAT IS A WEEDEATER HEAD!

KEN BLOCK GYMKHANA TWO THE INFOMERCIAL - Awesome!
Riding on the success of the first Gymkhana Practice video that grabbed the attention of over 20 million viewers worldwide, the Gymkhana TWO video takes infomercials to the next level. Unlike other infomercials, this one sells the products with great action, cinematography, and a dramatic driving performance—and, no stereotypical cheesy infomercial pitchman! Produced specifically to market Blocks first-ever Rally TeamWorks Collection, the new video is filled with great driving stunts, surprises, explosions, and a guest appearance from DC team rider, Rob Dyrdek. Filmed at the Port of Los Angeles, expect non-stop motor sport eye-candy as Block hits the all-new course in a custom tuned, high performance, and brand-new Subaru Impreza WRX STI. Visit dcshoes.com/gymkhanatwo for more photos and info on the high-performance video and Blocks complete Teamworks Collection.
The bottom line... Ken Block is the man, now bow down human.
