This page will chronicle my journey for a year (at least) as I attend school in a small town. Maybe you've heard of it? Le Mans? Oh, you haven't? Well it'd be a lot cooler if you had. I'm going to be studying "Advanced Automotive Engineering" aka race car design, fabrication, testing, and racing. Not sure if I'll ever get to drive the car, but more on that later...

Saving pennies now. Currently have about six that I found in my car.

Printing three dimensional objects with incredibly fine details is now possible using “two-photon lithography”. With this technology, tiny structures on a nanometer scale can be fabricated.

2013 SRT Viper
The SRT Viper has an all-aluminum mid-engined 8.4-liter V10 that delivers an estimated 640hp and 810Nm of torque. SRT claims it has the most torque of any naturally aspirated sports car engine in the world. Chassis enhancements and huge weight reductions bring the new Viper into a new league. Other features include electronic multistage stability control, traction control and new 4-channel anti-lock brake system.
On the inside you will find a completely new interior build with premium materials and new technologies. The exterior body is made by an carbon-fibre and aluminium skin designed for improved aerodynamics and lower drag while maintaining the iconic looks of the Viper.
turns already 15!
Ferrari F50
That means only 5 more until the next one! F40 = 1987, F50 = 1997, Enzo (F60) = 2007… F70 = 2017?
I sleep on an awesome bed every night thanks to this philosophy!
