Woburn, MA June 3, 2009: Terrafugia, Inc. has successfully completed the flight testing program designed for its Transition Roadable Aircraft Proof of Concept. Having been dubbed The Flying Car, the Transition completed its historic first flight on March 5, 2009 with 27 additional flights completed over the next several weeks. The successful completion of flight-testing with the Proof of Concept concludes the first stage of a four stage process to bring the Transition into production. Work is underway on Stage 2, the Beta Prototype. First delivery is expected in 2011. The Proof of Concept vehicle is the first and only Transition to be built thus far. It has now achieved its goals by demonstrating driving, flying, and automated transformation between the two in one integrated aircraft. The flights conducted a plan set specifically for the Transition: characteristics such as handling, performance, and take-off and landing, stability and stall were evaluated. B-Roll footage is available of representative flights. The flight-testing program demonstrated the safety of the vehicle in the air while identifying modifications that will be incorporated into the next Transition model to be built, the Beta Prototype. Test Pilot Colonel (Retired) Phil Meteer had a positive review of flying the POC: I would like to keep flying this Proof of Concept vehicle, but it makes sense to move on to the Beta Prototype. Categorized as a Light Sport Aircraft, the Transition requires a Sport Pilot …

Without showing the full monty BMW has just released a very solid preview/teaser video of the fifth generation BMW M5 sedan internally known as the F10M. Previous reports have mentioned an M5 concept debuting at the Shanghai Auto Show next month. Judging by the depth and frequency of these teaser videos Shanghai is very possible, although it could be mixed signals for the BMW 5-Series New Energy Vehicle coming through. If the M5 is a no show in Shanghai, then the Frankfurt motor show in September is a sure bet. Motivating the M5 is same twin-turbo 4.4-litre V8 found in the BMW X5 M and X6 M. Power output however is expectedly increased to 600 PS (441 kW / 592 bhp) over the SAV’s 555 PS (547 bhp / 408 kW). Channeling the power down to the wheels is a seven-speed DCT dual clutch transmission featuring three shift programs in addition to a fully automatic mode. According to Evo Magazine, who sampled a test prototype recently, the steering, suspension and drivetrain have three modes: comfort, sport and sport-plus. Furthermore, the MDM (M Driving Mode) raises the threshold of DSC intervention - perfect for those who want more control but still some backup. For those who want full control can switch it off completely giving unadulterated access to a 600 horsepower rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan. In the video the BMW M5 prototype is driven by test drivers Bernd Limmer and Frank Lutz in the Alps. Limmer speaks about the M5 driving capabilities under different driving conditions …

If I open my door In cars Here in my car I know I’ve started to think About leaving tonight Although nothing seems right In cars *** Released : August 1979 *** According to Gary Numan, the song’s lyrics were inspired by an incident of road rage: “I was in traffic in London once and had a problem with some people in front. They tried to beat me up and get me out of the car. I locked the doors and eventually drove up on the pavement and got away from them. It’s kind of to do with that. It explains how you can feel safe inside a car in the modern world… When you’re in it, your whole mentality is different… It’s like your own little personal empire with four wheels on it”. ♥───────── † ──────────♥ Gary Numan (born Gary Anthony James Webb on 8 March 1958) is an English singer, composer, and musician.

This was our 1st fall of snow, and underneath is a couple of inches of ice, as this area floods and freezes in the fall. Brilliant fun to drive a Mini in snow and ice. I’d rather drive it than our Nissan Titan in bad weather.
