Sprite vs. Rice Racer Video

A friend and co-worker sent me the following link. It is amusing, especially if you like Bugeyes.

Neato!

 

[JPSmit]

Fabulous. Thanks

 

[Morris]

Might I add...

He said that Bugeye was turning out 130 hp. HOLY MOLY!

Sounds like someone like Jolly or Happ breathed on it a bit.

That's great. I enjoyed it when it was first broadcast and like seeing it again.

'course, if the road had been a little drier, or straighter things might have turned out differently...

but still, it was highly satisfying to see the little guy win....

 

[JamesWilson]

PS. Rice Racer?

The competition is a Peugeot, manufactured in France... though its been badly mis-treated....

Peugeot is probably glad they've stripped all the badges off....

 

[Kurtis]

Fan-tas-tic!

 

[dklawson]

Sorry about the Rice Racer comment, it was misleading. I was sent this link at work and had to watch it without sound. I didn't recognize the car and assumed (incorrectly) that it was one of the myriad of customized Japanese cars like I see near where I live.

 

[jlaird]

Is OK, all the new cars look the same and are mostly the same color as well.

Its OK, there weren't any ID badges on it anywhere, outside or inside, and you almost had to know what it was before you saw it in order to tell what it was.

They all DO look alike... and the boyz make 'em look even more alike, methinks....
