    Glorious tiny plastic violence! This is what I had hoped Toy Story II was going to be.

    The Fairlady 280Z is clearly turbocharged - the creator gave it a nice trademark whooshing sound.

    I own at least half of those cars, most of them are from the Tomica "Vintage Collection". Mine are safely on shelves, however.

    That was remarkably satisfying. Someone really understands the psychology of toy cars and chase scenes. Although, maybe that's not the hardest thing to understand.

    Okay, if I get the license plate "Chëëtüß" for our car, will we get penalized just because?

    Perfect.

    So if teams sell shirts, Judge Martin, can they use the money as a free space? Up to a limit, of course, because some of those guys would be 'selling' hundreds of them.

    I should buy one of these for when a current or future 240 of mine ends up Windsorised. Just store it in the closet until then... my low-mile (199k) B230F isn't quite up to par.

    Oh hell, what do I care, it's amazing anyway. I wear my Black Metal shirt only on special occasions...

    @MushyHeirloom: Much the same. Once I get my earning potential back from the cragged jaws of the recession I will be swapping a V8 into my current or future 244. I, too, will require this shirt when that time comes around. Maybe a bumper sticker version too.

    Somewhere, the nearly forgotten dreams of a little, grey Skyhawk are about to come true.

    Putting the FireChicken on LeMons cars is incredibly appropriate. As we all know, the origin of the design rests in the mythology of the Phoenix (no, not the city), where the god-bird periodically emerges from the ashes of its own conflagration, perpetually renewing itself and its powers.

    In practice the performance of the T/A was inversely proportional to the size and gaudiness of the decal. I'm not sure that a car has ever been produced with a poorer go/show ratio.

    I stopped and took a picture when my Cavalier ticked over 241,390.5 kms (I was 100m late) - it's much more significant if you believe in that Imperial thing.
