I'd rock either one of 'em. I can only imagine what the atom would be like to drive in Japan in the summer :drool:

Don't worry...I'm not Jewish.(its a joke anywho...)

I saw a guy wring out an Atom at V.M.P. last summer and he was destroying supercars and high end race cars, then after he whooped most cars on the track, he removed the tape from the lights and drove it home. I could not stop watching that car.

The Top Gear review of the Atom was Awesome!.

I imagine the aerodynamics of the Darth Vader helmet are pretty awful on a bike or in an open cockpit car. The ST helmet would be fun though. :lol:

The Aerial could be passing whoever is taking the picture. It looks to be dashed on the side of the road the pic car is on. If they are in another country where they drive on the left.

True. With the left side drive, I assumed the US (or another right-lane country).

Edit: The blur of the dashed line looks like you're right, probably left-lane drive there.

I looked it up, its from california. So it is a bad pass.

When faster posted his comment, I was going to insert a humorous quip about arguing the other side because that is what's done on TWF but I didn't.

I check back and find that the argument has been made! :lol:

Based on the background, I am betting the pic was taken in either AZ or NM.

The good news is, if we debate about long enough, someone will research said pic and jump in to prove one or both of us wrong. ;)

I looked at the picture and figured the dashed line was blurred from the cars moving right to left in the picture. Connected the dots that this would happen from the POV of the car with the camera if they were in a left-lane drive country.

Failed to connect the dots the same damn thing would happen if they were driving in the left lane to make in illegal pass. :lol:

Hopefully the e-mails I was sending out at the same time were more thought-out.
