It’s Tuesday. What do you do with a canon capable of launching a bowling ball at speeds up to 240 MPH? If you’re part of the Ballistic High-Speed team then you smash stuff and film it with a high-speed camera! Objects like bowling pins, the ball itself, and even the human body?

It’s Monday. Half of our weekend was hot and the other half not so much. Saturday was great with plenty of sun and temperatures in the upper 80s. Sunday was cold, windy, and rainy—perfect stay indoors weather to watch Martin Truex Jr. win the Nascar race in Sonoma, California. And what better weather to have a nice big bowl of chicken noodle soup for dinner.

I didn’t make it out to the Cruise Night in Morris, Illinois, on Saturday night. But I heard they had 919 registered cars! That must have been awesome! What a great way to kick off the season! There’s also a weekly show out in Plainfield, Illinois, every Tuesday night. I’m hoping to get out to that one this week.

It’s Friday! Heard anything good in the news lately? Heh, It’s Friday again folks and I’m hoping to get out to Morris, Illinois, for their monthly Cruise Night on Saturday night. They usually attract 800 or more cars of all makes and years, so it’s always a great show to check out on the second Saturday of the month throughout the summer. As always, I’ll have my camera along to capture all the automotive goodness!

And speaking of goodness, how about some unusual auto goodness for today? Rob, one of my readers, sent in an odd collection of photos from the Abergavenny Vintage Steam Rally in South Wales UK. The ’78 Corvette with whitewall tires is definitely odd, but that’s nothing compared to some of the other vehicles. A huge thanks to Rob for taking the time to send in the photos!

Anyway, enjoy the photo gallery below and don’t forget that the babes & jokes are doubled today!

Keep,

Once again I took my life in my hands and rode my 1965 Ariel Leader to the Abergavenny Vintage Steam Rally in South Wales UK. There was a huge selection of vehicles on display; I have picked out some of the more unusual ones, like the Norton Wankel rotary engine bike, a beautifully restored Indian, a one horsepower transport J and of course a Corvette. Also there were Can Can dancers and a stunt show.

More pics to follow.
