One night I got the urge to make a super sleek, open top racer using my 2 favourite colours (black and dark red). I wanted it to be a really dense, compact build with a smooth upper body and badass looking engine chassis underneath. So I did.
The cheetah's flexible spine, oversized liver, enlarged heart, wide nostrils, increased lung capacity, and thin muscular body make this cat the swiftest hunter in Africa. Covering 7-8 meters in a stride, with only one foot touching the ground at a time, the cheetah can reach a speed of 110 km/h in seconds. At two points in the stride, no feet touch the ground.

Description The Bell Aircraft Company X-2 (46-674) drops away from its Boeing B-50 mothership in this photo. Lt. Col. Frank "Pete" Everest piloted 674 on its first unpowered flight on August 5, 1954. He made the first rocket-powered flight on 18 November 1955. Everest made the first supersonic X-2 flight in 674 on April 25, 1956, achieving a speed of Mach 1.40. In July, he reached Mach 2.87, just short of the Mach 3 goal. The X-2 reached Mach 3.2 (2,094 mph) at 65,000 feet. Apt became the first man to fly more than three times the speed of sound.

Speed set him free.
Speed birthed his heart
into desitinations.
He was forever racing
gridlocked by speed.
DeLorean Speeder built for #speedermashup hosted by @rebel.p.u.n.k on Instagram to celebrate 2500 followers! I designed this in Bricklink stud.io over two days. Every part exists irl and if I've done my homework should be buildable. I'm planning on ordering some parts and giving it a shot.
Taken while on the ferry from Kelleys Island back to the mainland. I was trying to do the thing with the slow shutter speed tracking the moving object to give the illusion of speed. This turned out more difficult than first anticipated since I myself was on a moving boat using a long lens hand-held.

It's just an ordinary day for Barry Allen, a forensic scientist in Central City. It's late at night so not many of his co-workers are in the lab, but Barry decided to do some extra work regarding a case that involves his father.
He is doing some DNA analysis with a centrifuge when suddenly he hears a loud crackle outside.
He thinks to himself, "Storm's getting pretty bad, I should leave the lab soon before it gets any worse.
He begins to finish up the work until suddenly he see's a large flash outside his window, and before Barry can react a bright yellow bolt of lightning crashes through the window and strikes him.
From the impact he is thrown against the wall, that have shelves full of chemicals that spill on him soon after.
Barry lies on the ground unconscious. A co-worker who was nearby his lab rushes in after hearing that noise and see's Barry on the ground.
She exclaims "BARRY! Oh my god! Are you alright?!" But there is no response from Barry. There is only a small flicker of electrical energy coming from his body.
