A 1977 Mini with a 4.8 litre supercharged LS V8 in the front . The driver is 6' 7", the supercharger air scoop is a plastic mailbox, the radiator is mounted in the floor

The Gauges on the outside. Mental!

My friend and I were approached recently by a Youtuber who wanted to do a short film on our ratty Alfas. If you like a scruffy old car and a nicely put together film then hopefully you'll enjoy this...

This deserves its own thread really, but I'd probably get told off.

I'm sure many people will have seen HubNut's videos from time to time. Pretty much the antithesis of the rich, loud, egotistical YouTuber. At the moment he is on his way to Croatia in his 2CV, taking the long way around and the slower roads. Taking time to appreciate interesting cars and assorted sights along the way. Today, he was pottering along from the Netherlands to Germany and came across a rather interesting garage in Brummen (seems an appropriate name).

On Google Earth it is marked as The Gallery. They aren't joking! Several floors of vehicles from most eras and countries, all for sale. Like an entire series of Chasing Classic Cars all rolled into one. Well worth a look.

Does anyone know the telephone number of Dinky Toys?

Looks more fake than either of those options

Sped up, or not real at all?

[Aphex]

I'd say not real at all, the ferrari looks dodgy enough but the police car looks like a hot wheels car

Saw this in my feed yesterday and honestly.... it made me decide to watch a full formula-e race on youtube..... have you say I'm slowly becoming a convert - its more raw racing, without politics and once you accept you will never hear the glorious V10/V8 (nobody will miss the v6) you start enjoying it for what it is.

agree with this, Formula E races are packed full of the sort of stuff we want to see in F1 - wheel to wheel , contact that doesn't instantly wreck the car, added variation with a little bit of power management + the tactical use of the fan boost and boost mode etc.., rather than DRS which is just an instant easy pass on one of the many long straights F1 tracks have. Barriers close in so mistakes get punished. Tyres that let them race flat out all the time. No stupid pointless pitstops.

I've watched all the FE races this year in their entirety, I don't recall sitting through a single full F1 race, just the occasional flick through the "highlights" to see if anything did actually happen.

+ you’ll be able to join the race yourself soon in a virtual car and see how you fare, some great stuff to come

Fan Boost is the most pathetic, contrived and offensive thing in the history of motorsport. The sooner Formula E drops the gimmicks, the sooner it will gain credibility.
