Flying Rhino

Hover Rhino, in reality - they've not got enough lift to get out of ground effect.
I suspect it’s actually a maglev rhino. That’s why it’s restricted to the path that’s been laid out for it.
You're all wrong - it's an excellent action shot of a falling rhino, just before hitting the ground. It's quite common for rhinos to climb trees in search of bee nests, as they're an absolute bugger for fresh honey. They've developed a knack, much like domestic cats, of being able to twist when falling to always land on their feet. Rhinos share a lot of common DNA with cats, and have common distant ancestor species. In fact, what you're looking at there is basically a big, hairless, horny-nosed cat.
I never noticed that before. You're right, check out the ears.

Stop this infantile foolishness immediately!

This is a serious thread for serious posters.

If you want fun and games you should head over to the NP&E area.

Dogs are better. Still limited to ground effect, though:

Nasty accident there. But, what do you expect from a wedge shaped car?

My old wedge.

I drove this so brilliantly that I never once ended up with an integrated bicycle.

Your old TR7 wedge was punching above it's weight, which can't be said from the pushbike ornament biggrin

Indeed, the same device can be seen mounted 'correctly' to this DB11 AMR, modelled by Matt Jones
