Two Boys Were Digging In The Yard When They Uncovered THIS. But That’s Only Half The Story. -...

What’s the most incredible or unusual thing you might find in your backyard? Say you pick up a metal detector and find an old coin, or perhaps comes across an arrowhead. That’s all well and good, but nothing even comes close to what two California boys found in 1978.

Because these kids found a Ferrari !

This is the front yard in a Los Angeles neighborhood where the vehicular treasure was discovered in early February of 1978.

A new family had just moved into the house when their two boys struck gold. The family called the authorities, and an excavation began. It turned out that the car was actually an insanely valuable 1974 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS.

The car had been poorly mummified with towels and cloths. It was obvious that someone wanted to come back for it. But who? And why did they bury it?

6 Drivers You Don't Want To Share The Road With

When you think about it, it's amazing that we as humans have adapted to driving at all. The idea that an average citizen can be trusted with a metal box capable of traveling over 100 miles an hour would boggle the minds of our ancestors, but it's taken for granted today. Yet for some people, that level of comfort can turn into something more dangerous: carelessness. Whether they're drinking, texting or just not paying attention to their surroundings, people who don't take driving seriously can threaten their own safety and that of others. So, for the next time you're wondering why there are so many PSAs about impaired or distracted driving, here are 16 reminders.

1. It didn't take this drunk driver long to learn the meaning of "instant karma."

2. This person is going 75 miles per hour.

Also, just in case the picture seems hypocritical, the photographer is in the back seat.

via reddit / [deleted]

3. This isn't an abandoned van, the driver's seat is apparently clear.

How anyone can stand driving this, I'll never know. And it's dangerous because they can't see through any of the mirrors.

via reddit / tli3

4. Apparently, this drunk driver ran over some guy-wires.

And then, this happened.

5. It's hard to tell what the thought process was here.

I guess they wanted to see where that ramp went.

6. It sucks that he's late for his clown gig, but that doesn't excuse this.

This isn't the right way to multitask.

Milan Abarth Supercar

It was unveiled last week in Monaco, and while it may have some influences in its design, mainly from older racing cars, it is, dare we say it, unique. However, if its racecar-esque looks don`t win you over, its proposed power figure definitely will, as the Milan Abarth is said to be available with power outputs ranging from 600 hp, all the way up to 1,700 hp.

Also, thanks to its very low curb weight of just over one tonne, if it has the right tires and gearing, it could sprint to 100 km/h or 62 mph in around two seconds (that could mean both under and over the specified value). Set to cost from €300,000, the car will be unveiled with official formalities in February of next year.

Audi S8 with 501hp

Audi interests the tuners for modification this German premium car. This time the Audi’ tuners list are added with new tuner, Mariani. This tuner works with the Audi A8 and S8. The work involves enhancement on the engine performance and the exterior.
Coming to the heart of the car, the Mariani has modified the stock’s 450hp (335kW) 5.2L V10 engine to get an extra 51hp (38kW) for now 501hp (373kW).

At the first sight, you will show that Mariani’s Audi S8 is lower than the stock as the tuner has lowered this German sportcar by 60mm. Equipping the exterior’s looking are combination between the the tires and alloy wheels by Euro-stretch treatment, measuring 19in front and 20in rear combined with� 255 up front and 305 rear. These combination between wheels and tires are also good for car traction.

Vision SZR

The brand new supercar Vision SZR, that took part in the series “Done in 60 seconds”, will be equipped with a 6 liter V12 engine that produces 700 HP. A different version will also be produced, for the emptier pockets, powered by a 620 HP 6.2 liter V8, according to the upper-mentioned show.
The heaviest configuration will barely go above 1300 kg, given the fact that it is well-covered in carbon fiber and aluminum. This also ensures acceleration from naught to 100 kph in less than 4 seconds. John Misumi, the chief operating engineer, thinks of it as a muscle car for the 21st century. The development process started in the middle 1990s, with a redesigning in 2005.

Two reasons make this car undesirable to many: first – there is only one Vision SZR in the world, with a production cost of around $2 million and second – its design, resembling the 1990 Chevy Corvette CERV III concept car, in a twisted way.
