    Seeing all the B-Ville stuff on here at the moment, thought this may be interesting to some of you. I went to the employee car show at McLaren yesterday, and the latest Landspeed record attempt car was there. Read the text on the card, pretty crazy speed figures and a rather large fuel pump...

    That's not a car, it's an extremely low flying plane.
