I'm not afraid of insects taking over the world, and you know why? It would take about a billion ants just to AIM a gun at me, let alone fire it. And you know what I'm doing while they're aiming it at me? I just sort of slip off to the side, and then suddenly run up and kick the gun out of their hands.

I love it. The "intake" is bigger than the engine. I bet that set up weighs more than our cars

Instead of trying to build newer and bigger weapons of destruction, we should be thinking about getting more use out of the ones we already have.

My BS detectorwnt off like crazy. But then I zoomed in on the engine itself and the chroms is picking up the refections of the engine bay and surround pender/front pieces, so it's either for real, or a good photoshop job.


Look at the bone stock grandpa interior, though. Would you want to be launched down the strip in that thing with only a lap belt on ya?

if you unfocus your eyes a little bit, that "engine" looks kind of like a mechwarrior standing in the engine bay.
