The Truth about Aliens

For decades people have wondered if our planet has been visited by aliens.

There have been hundreds of books and movies about this subject, claiming everything from government cover ups to aliens building the pyramids, but there has never been concrete proof that an alien civilization has visited our planet Terra.

Until now:

I give you the Lexus LFA and the Vyrus 987.



You tell ME those aren't an intergalactic spaceship and an alien-based recon vehicle ;)

What, you didn't think I was being serious, did you??

This past weekend I attended the Festivals of Speed over in Orlando, and got to get up close and personal with some truly gorgeous.....and some bizarre, pieces of automotive artwork. I'll drop a couple of the photos here for you, but the full set can be found at http://bit.ly/cUWHuY



1956 Pontiac Club Du Mer concept


Campagna V13R


Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG


1999 Shelby Series 1 and 1998 Dodge Viper GTS. Late 90s American Muscle at its finest.



The neck-snappingly quick Tesla Roadster Sports. 0-60 in 3.7 seconds. And it's ELECTRIC.


Ferrari 458 Italia



Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary Edition



Rare 1958 Desoto Adventurer convertible


The sexy 1957 Maserati 450 S. Dangerous curves


1939 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Super Sport


Porsche 911 Carerra S and my co-conspiritor, lol


yes, they managed to wedge a 472CID engine inside a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T with the Scat Pack package. I imagine it GLABOOH.


Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Sang Bleu. Another rocketship.

October

No tricks here, I hope, just a few treats for myself this month.

I'm going to of course roll to FOF probably this coming week.
Thursday I have my FSO exams.

Saturday I am shooting the Wings and Waves show at Daytona Beach. A few highlights I am jazzed about are the Sopwith Camel F.1 v Fokker DR.1 dogfight, the F/A-22A Raptor demo, The Canadian Snowbirds, and a massive Heritage flight rumored to include the Raptor, F-16C Fighting Falcon, and P-51D Mustang. There are also a bunch of GenAv types, but that will be my chance for food and drinks.

Sunday I will be in Orlando shooting at the Festivals of Speed, which is supposed to include a Bugatti, F1 cars, Ferraris, Bentleys, Lambos and the like. I will be going with a surprise guest ;) I may also pop over to Sanford to shoot the RA-5C Vigilante if I get the chance

NEXT Friday and/or Saturday thereafter (15-16) I will be shooting the Lake Mirror Classic Auto Show that I have hit the last few years!

AND the ‎352nd Fighter Group Reunion in Kissimmee. Yeah, the Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney getting together again, with a few P-51 Mustangs in their colors!

Then, on the 28th, is the Cocoa Beach Air Show, with the USAF Thunderbirds headlining. Might or might not hit that one, time will tell.
