We'll get to that in a second though.

Ok so today was a good day (cue ice cube). I went to watch some people at an automotive technical college work on cars with my friend, I went to Pull a Part with my friend, and then I went downtown...with my friend (oh and we saw the new X-Men, it was very good). While downtown we were looking for a place to eat and out of the corner of my eye I saw a Local Motors Rally Fighter, something I ddefinitely didn't expect to see. Why was it there? Well apparently Local Motors was having a grand opening of their store in downtown Knoxville. Not sure why they put a store in Knoxville of all places, but hey, I'll take it! I actually didn't know that Local Motors made anything but the Rally Fighter, but apparently they do. Check it out.

The fact that you just happen to stumble upon all that is awesome.

THEY MAKE DRIFT TRIKES!?!

Local Motors is officially my favorite car manufacturer.

They are really well made and have leather seats! $450 for a non powered one, $1500 or so for an electric one.

Pfft, electric power. Real men use gravity to drift their trikes!

Decay buys too many beaters > Velocity- Peuguette Connoisseur 05/28/2014 at 19:41

Holy shit, I'd actually buy that. The non-powered one, so I could justify my purchase as "exercise equipment" and have my company pay for part of it!

AMGtech - now with more recalls! > Velocity- Peuguette Connoisseur 05/28/2014 at 23:26
