The team at TopGear.com  decided to take a 1981 Vw rabbit and meet two goals with few options. 1, 0-60 time of 7 seconds or less. 2, obtain a mile per gallon of fuel usage of 70 (twice that of a toyota prius).  I’ll skip through the nitty gritty and brake it down. New Brakes, H&R suspension, TDI motor out of a 2002 Jetta, some minor body work, alot of tuning and voila.

Granted the fuel test was only done by driving one mile and topping the tank off again… It still managed to nail a 84mpg ratiing. I call it the Little German that Could.  For more information on this build, check out Top Gear’s website and this little car by clicking here

For any fan of the Beastie Boys, I found this remix on Myspace of a song called “Alive”. It’s got some smooth beat lines and I liked enough that after I added it to my myspace page, I began a search for it online. Unsucessful in my Googling, yahoo-ng and p2p searches I did the smartest thing. I contacted the guy in Poland via his myspace and asked for the file! He promptly replied saying I could have it when he found it himself, this of course only took  him like 20 minutes and I had the mp3 on my pc and mp3 player! He goes by the name see4thD and has some sweet tracks. In return for him sharing this file with me, I intend to share with you, of course with his permission!
