    At the logging show near where I used to live I was in the front row watching these two rednecks with a buick v8 powered chainsaw. Exhaust pipes are about 6 inches long aimed right at the users face and it goes through a decent sized long in about a second. I'm pretty sure stuff like that is why I'm going deaf.

    I just realized that someone used the phrases "redneck" and "logging show" in a thread about a ferrari. Is this the end of the world as we know it?

    It is, actually. Looks like they've extended the exhaust pipes, but other than that this is what I saw. You can't tell from the video but the blade says "Binford" on it and the weird thing on the front is a chain oiler, it has 2, to keep the chain working right at those speeds.

    Yeah, well, enumclaw and buckley are pretty close together and only a few miles from where I grew up so I know the area well. Tons of rednecks and a lot of them are loggers. This isn't the most dangerous toy in the city.

    Edit: I almost didn't put this in for decencies sake, but I had to if only to take a shot at the kiwis. Chainsaws aren't the only problem there, either. It's kind of the new zealand of washington state. You may have seen in the news a few years ago that a guy died from internal bleeding after having sex with his horse (he was catching.) That happened in enumclaw. On the bright side, the controversy from that inspired people to make bestiality illegal in washington (it wasn't before that.)

    my friend from England that I used to work with, he still gets copies of The Sun from over there. Last year he came to work wide eyed telling me that he had just read of a scottish farmer arrested for rooting some poor sheep in the middle of the field. Apparently the police were driving by and caught him in the act.

    I have to wonder what drives people to do these things. Was this man merely another sheep trapped in a man's body? How do their minds work?!

    Getting used to the fact that Ferrari has changed now. I don't think they will produce any really good looking cars in a while. They have a more functional than beautiful design, like a swiss knife rather than a samurai sword. The era of 355s have passed.

    I think its better looking than the 430 though and that engine is a masterpiece!

    Saw a newspaper story of a guy that had been caught in a field with a pumpkin. When the cop walked up to him and asked if he was aware he was ****ing a pumpkin the guy said "damn, is it midnight already?" Had to add that, I'm done with off topic now.

    It looks great from the side and rear, good from the front. I am not too big of a fan of the dual grille air openings in the front anymore. It worked on the 360 but it is time to move on.
    I like the more edgy styling and it seems that a brake vent should be added to the recess in front of the rear wheels.
    I hope the production car looks just like these photos and is not just a preproduction concept.
    Regardless, it looks like a real winner.

    I wanted to emphasize the burnosity (it's a word) of the flames - it was an intentional addition.
