paint design by wind tunnel, good idea!
LeMans 1970. Porsche 917LH “Psychedelic”. The cars paint scheme came from the painter who put green dabs on the car and placed it in a wind tunnel while the paint was still wet. This was the end result and he placed it on the real car. Only two of these cars built. The sister car set the fastest lap and reached a top speed of 245 mph.Via: http://eknude.tumblr.com/

Photo from http://5window.tumblr.com/ I think, it might have been http://motomania.tumblr.com/ ... I can't recall.Funniest photo I've seen all day. While I'm on the topic; overheard at the car show today " this girl asked if she could get in my Minerva, so I said "Sure go ahead".. and waited til she was halfway in, and then said "I'm sure the owner won't mind . . . " and she freaked out.
The view the race car drivers have at Speedfest, racing on the airfield at Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego (leave your speakers off or low)
The audio is washed out by 130 miles an hour or wind over the cheap microphone, it's garbage, so ignore it
