Re: Son of "Don't Drift this Thread"'s long lost cousin...

I heard that Ferrari was badging their new motor the Powerstroke V12. Ford's lawsuit is clearly a publicity stunt. I don't think so. During it's finacial bolstering they borrowed against all the assets of the company, including the barnd name, logo and other such assets. In order to maintain a copy...

Re: Top Gear USA

I saw a show with Paul Tray driving a Ferrari and it seemed like he filled up the available space much more then the Stig did in the Lambo on the first episode of Top Gear.

But why no mention about when SA95 will expire?

*M95 helmets will be eligible through 12/31/2010.
Ok, so M95 is about to expire, but M2010, M2005, and M2000 will still be fine.
But why no mention about when SA95 will expire? (I was expecting it to expire at the end of the year too)
