Cruise Ships and Storms – The Ultimate Ride

I keep trying to convince a few friends of mine to go on a cruise with me, but they always tell me that they avoid them for fear of getting seasick. Well, after watching this video of a cruise ship in the middle of a bad storm, I’m starting to see where they’re coming from.

The video below was taking from inside the Pacific Sun after it encountered a huge storm about 400 miles off the coast of New Zealand. The cruise ship faced 25-foot-tall waves and heavy winds… waves and winds big enough to

World’s Coolest Go-Kart: GK2G by Beau Designs

Electric-Go-Kart-GK2G

The future is here! We present you the GK2G (Go Kart 2 Go), designed by Beau Reid of Beau Designs.  This is one of the coolest go-karts I’ve even seen, it’s so sexy, I would buy one in a heartbeat when/if it’s available.

The GK2G is designed to look like a Formula1 car and I believe they achieved that by the pure sexiness of the design (can you tell I really like this thing?).  The GK2G is an electric go-kart; it’s powered by lightweight lithium batteries and can reach a top speed of 60 miles per hour.

Unfinished Man at Jaguar Land Rover Experience Tour

A couple of weeks ago Jaguar Land Rover Canada put together an even called the “Jaguar Land Rover Experience Tour”, which consisted of track time with Jaguar cars and an off-road course for Land Rover vehicles.  We were invited to the event, which was a lot of fun, and I would like to thank Aleksandra Bulat for organizing the event and Dean Rideout from MCL Motor Cars.

The event took place in Mission, BC, where the Mission Raceway was used for driving Jaguar cars and an off-road course was specially built for the Land Rovers.  The part I was most excited about was the race track and driving the 500+

Sexy Retro-Mod – Holdon EFIJY Concept Car

The Holden EFIJY concept car from Australia has been around since 2005 but I somehow missed it.  For those of you that also didn’t see it earlier, here it is.  The car was designed by Richard Ferlazzo and is a wild take on the Holden FJ, “Australia’s most famous car” and the name is derived from that, eFiJy.

The EFIJY has hot-rod styling from the 1950’s and technology from the 21st century.  Painted in Soprano Purple, the car seems to change color depending on lighting and the angle you’re looking from.  The EFIJY is powered by a 6.0 liter LS2 V8 engine producing 645 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 560 lb. ft. of torque at 4,200 rpm.  The car rides on 20 x 9 inch rims in the front and 22 x 10 inch rims in the back.
