Engineer Dad Builds His Son The Best Toy Car Ever Seen

This is absolutely fantastic! Definitely gives me inspiration to build a kart of my own.

"The builder of this sub-scale, carbon-fiber beauty is a Chinese automotive engineer who goes by the handle Lingziluo, and, according to his answers on a reddit thread, the little car cost over $15,000 in parts, and if you were to factor in the labor cost, would easily cost more than a new BMW 3 Series. That kid better not complain about getting underpants for his birthday." Via Jalopnik

Fuck That Noise

So I finally took that big step.. and removed myself from all forms of social media except for Google+

That shit is hella gay, and in reality counter productive in terms of what I do with my free time. I'm still debating if I'll even keep this blog running, or just start over on something new and professional. I know there is literally next to nobody that views this unless I spam it... Blah. I'll probably just use this shit to vent and post whatever, whenever I want.

Stay classy
