Space Shuttle Endeavour’s Final Journey – LA Times

This is the third installment of the Space Shuttle Endeavour’s trip to its final resting place at the California Science Center. Our first look at the trip was the loading of the shuttle on to a Boeing 747 and then its subsequent flight over Southern California. This third and probably final leg of the journey is the 12 mile trek on the streets of Los Angeles between LAX and the California Space Center. The trip ended up being a logistical nightmare and nobody took a video of it in its entirety. The LA Times compiled this time lapse video using the photographs taken by the press and bystanders.

The War and Peace Show 2012

The War and Peace Show is the world’s largest military vehicle gathering. This year was the 30th anniversary of the event that takes place in Kent, UK. From what I understand, the UK has strict rules on handgun ownership but are totally cool with people owning and driving demilitarized tanks to the grocery store. I kind of look at it as Comic-Con for war geeks.

2012 Byron Dragway Power Wheelstand World Championship

It’s time again for the annual Power Wheelstand World Championship at the Byron Dragway. Conceptually, it’s one of my favorite motorsports events. There’s a little bit of cheesy video editing, but this was the best coverage of the event that I could find. Check out coverage of last year’s event for more power wheelstand insanity.
