Riding BMX Bikes on an Asteriod--More Helicam Videos

Another dramatic helicam video from our buddy Dimitris Katranidis in Athens, Greece. This time at a BMX stunt track courtesy of Helicam Visuals.

If you like this, you'll also like Dimitris' Drifting on Pluto that we posted a couple of months ago.

Thanks again Dimitris! Stop by the shop when you are in the USA. We'll look you up next time we're in Greece.

Built Like a Tank but Shouldn't Look Like One

Today's Mercedes is one of the huge old built-like-a-tank S-Class models with a diesel engine that will run forever. The camouflage paint scheme is purely by accident. The interior was in great shape and the engine was strong and ran like new. But this was a car seriously in need of a paint job. Almost Everything sanded off all the old, failed paint and got the surface smooth then we applied a new coat of primer/sealer before repainting the car.

Maybe the Lamborghini Wasn't As Reliable as his Geely Emgrand?

Uh. . . hard to understand what is happening in this video beyond the obvious. . . there are a bunch of guys beating the snot out of a Lamborghini Gallardo.

According to Jalopnik.com, and GTSpirit.com, the owner of the Lamborghini is from Qingdao, China and was upset at the reliability of the Gallardo and the service he received from Lamborghini in China. He bought the car 6 months ago for the equivalent of $600K-700K (USD.) Apparently it stopped running and the local Lamborghini service center had a difficult time diagnosing the problem.

Reliability should not be high on the list of wants for Lamborghini owners. Same goes for Ferrari and any other supercar you can name. We'd love to feel some empathy for the owner. Maybe if he could donate $700K to us we could better understand his pain. In the mean time, we recommend he try China's Geely luxury brand called "Emgrand," example below.
