This 'car' is just a insane hightech machine.
It was for a long time the lap recordholder of the Nurburgring.
Here are some specs of this insane ride..
It runs on an eight-cylinder bi-turbo getting up to 800 hp and 900 Nm of torque. Amazingly, the car can hit 200 km/h in 8.9 seconds.
I was just amazed to see this..
I hope you like it to..
The Apollo Theatre in Oberlin is synonymous with consistent family friendly movies shown at reasonable prices. Since 1913, the downtown movie house has opened its doors to enthusiastic patrons, ready to see the latest offering. Renovated in 2011, the single-screen main theater has 411 seats and a 61-seat screening room on the ground level.
The Apollo also serves as a space for the college’s Cinema Studies Program, as students often do their work in the second-floor Media Education Center, which has postproduction equipment.
July 20th, 1969: One giant leap for mankind.
A quick little vignette I made for the 47th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. Although it's hard to tell from the lighting, the grey lunar rover on the left is made entirely of classic light grey pieces to add to the retro authenticity! The backdrop is of course my celestial matte painting called "The Moth Nebula", which I've created last winter.
A team of U.S. Navy underwater demolition swimmers prepares the Apollo 8 command module for being hoisted aboard the carrier U.S.S. Yorktown, prime recovery vessel for the initial human lunar orbital mission. The crew members—astronauts Frank Borman, James A. Lovell, Jr., and William A. Anders—had already egressed the spacecraft and were aboard the recovery ship at the time of this photo.

Apollo bay is often referred to as "Paradise by the sea". The sun rises over the ocean and sets behind the majestic green hills (shown here) which come down almost to the beach.
(July 24, 1975) The ASTP Apollo Command Module, with astronauts Thomas P. Stafford, Vance D. Brand and Donald K. Slayton still inside, awaits pickup by the prime recovery ship, the USS New Orleans, following splashdown in the Central Pacific Ocean to conclude the historic joint U.S.-USSR Apollo-Soyuz Test Project docking mission in Earth orbit. The CM touchdown occurred in the Hawaiian Islands area at 4:18 p.m. (CDT), July 24, 1975. A team of U.S. Navy swimmers assists with the recovery operations. A recovery helicopter hovers overhead.

Finaly, my first Apollo in a combo with the Apollo Speed.
This car is really one of the most amazing cars i've ever seen. It is just totaly insane that this is street legal.
I really hope that more people will buy the Apollo because it has one of the biggest 'WOW' factors and it drives just better then perfect...
Please leave a comment at my first Apollo i've spotted.
The Apollo 1 crew patch
Astronauts: Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee
On January 27, 1967 a fire swept through the cabin during a launch rehearsal killing astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee. The name Apollo 1 was formally assigned to the mission in the spring of 1967 in memory of the astronauts who lost their lives.
The three crew members for the Apollo-Saturn 204 mission (later named Apollo 1) check out the couch installation on the Apollo Command Module (CM) at North American's Downey facility. Left to right in their pressurized space suits are astronauts Virgil I. Grissom, Roger B. Chaffee and Edward H. White II.

"Apollo spętany" to jeden z krakowskich sekretów. Wspaniały secesyjny witraż ukryty jest w nie rzucającym się w oczy budynku przy Radziwiłłowskiej 4, zwyczajnej śródmiejskiej ulicy, tuż obok dworca kolejowego.
Witraż, stanowiący personifikację układu heliocentrycznego, wykonał w roku 1904 Stanisław Wyspiański do nowowybudowanego gmachu krakowskiego Towarzystwa Lekarskiego. Budynek przy ul. Radziwiłłowskiej 4 zaprojektowali w roku 1903 Władysław Kaczmarski i Ignacy Sowiński. Wzniesiono go w roku 1904, a projekt wystroju wszystkich wnętrz zlecono Wyspiańskiemu, wybitnemu przedstawicielowi polskiej Secesji.
17 stycznia 1945 r. wycofujący się z Krakowa Niemcy wysadzili pobliski wiadukt kolejowy na ul. Kopernika. Siła detonacji spowodowała zniszczenie witraża, który zrekonstruowano w 1972 r.

"Apollo spętany" (Apollo Bound) can be called one of the Krakow's best kept secrets. The imposing Art Nouveau stained glass lies hidden in a rather inconspicuous building located at Radziwiłłowska No. 4, unseen from the outside on this obscure street near the train station.
The stained glass, showing a personification of the Copernican Solar System, was designed in 1904 for the newly erected seat of the Krakow Medical Society by the leading artist of the Polish Art Nouveau, Stanisław Wyspiański.
The Medical Society House, designed in 1903 by the architects Władysław Kaczmarski and Ignacy Sowiński, was completed one year later. Its fantastic interior decor from furnishings to the beautiful stained-glass windows was entirely designed by Stanisław Wyspiański.
On 17th January 1945, the retreating German troops blew up the railway viaduct over the nearby Kopernika Street. Unfortunately, a blast of explosion destroyed the stained glass, and it wasn't until 1972 when the masterpiece was reconstructed.

Abandoned Abused Street Dogs.
Mr Dog Doctor and I are having a discussion in
bits of Thai and bits of English about Mr Apollo.
Reason I focused on the Dr and blurred out Apollo
is simple. If the photo was crisp and clean showing
Apollos skin infection many would loose their lunch.
You've heard me say this numerous times before ....
"This job is Not for the weak or faint of heart !!!" .
Whoever your God might be, please say a word or
two for Mr Apollos quick recovery.
And if your feeling real talkative throw in a few words
for all the other dogs too ...;-)~
A Big Thank You for your donations.
We are always in desperate need
of funding to help the innocent
animals dumped in this
dangerous jungle.

The crews warmly greeted each other after the initial opening of the hatches. The crews took calls from President Ford and Soviet Communist Party General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev and exchanged gifts all before closing the hatches for the night to sleep. The next day they gave a tour of the command modules for the T.V. audience on earth, then got busy performing science experiments. They spent time in each others capsules and exchanged final gifts before undocking that night.
