The FIA has published the entry list for the 2009 F1 season. Nothing major; BrawnGP is at the bottom of the list due to them being recognized as a brand new entry. Ferrari and Scuderia Toro Rosso also switched around the inter-team numbers. That’s about it… the full list is just on the second page.
Most people know of Tata as the company that bought and now owns Jaguar and Land Rover. They’re also the company to release the worlds cheapest car. But don’t get so excited just yet, it appears to be a total heap of shit.
The car starts at around $2k, which isn’t bad. The companies business model, they have to sell at least 250k of them to turn a profit. Not a good start…
The car doesn’t include such features like airbags, power windows or air conditioning. Those are extra. Also don’t expect to set any 0-60 speed records because you’ll never see 60 as the 33hp engine only accelerates the car up to a top speed of 43mph.
The target audience for this car is India so luckily we’ll probably never see it in the states. If the car catches on over there, I say more power to Tata. But I highly doubt that it will.
I was trying to do some more research on Tata and searching on google, my keyworld “Tata’s” didn’t render very many car related results… Not that that’s a bad thing.
Ah, the infamous Blaupunkt commercial featuring stuffed animals humping to a hot bass line.
This video is almost as old as the internet itself but I’m reposting it because of one reason. I finally found the Mp3 of the entire song used in the video. Most of you probably don’t care but it’s a big deal to me because I spent a lot of time scouring the Blaupunkt forums and the rest of the internet trying to find the song in it’s entirety. You can find it below. I think this is awesome but maybe I’m just lame.
