Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thing I thought of years ago at Mc Gregor Range, New Mexico. Little did I know on that night run I had either a delusion, or an abduction. I just remember my watch stopped and confusion. Told my friends too. ln the desert at night running. I puked like 95% of my runs. I was also called “Rabbit”. I was good at long distance running. When I finished, they played the kazoo. Even one alien could prove true and in a zoo. No one believed it to be true. They had no clue. Found a zapped cow. A short moo, steaks precooked for you. An alien cooked that, what I said was true and we also made stew. In Rabbit’s Poetry, author Christopher Laramie offers an eclectic collection of humorous, creative, and sometimes furious poems. Written by an Iraq war veteran, these selections touch on a wide variety of topics from Laramie’s life.

Download or read book Porsche Turbo written by Randy Leffingwell and published by Motorbooks International. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrate the rebirth of the world's most stunning high-performance automobile. Porsche made history when it brought turbocharging to the racing world in the form of the 917. When strict regulations regarding engine displacement took away the option of bigger engines, manufacturers turned to forced induction. In its wildest trim, the original 12-cylinder turbocharged Porsche racing engine yielded as much as 1,400 horsepower! Porsche's official philosophy was that racing cars must have a connection to street cars, so it was preordained that Porsche would eventually produce a turbocharged version of its air-cooled flat-six cylinder engine. The resulting 930 Turbo appeared in the spring of 1975 in Europe. Acceleration from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour took a scant 5.5 seconds, and its top speed was 155 miles per hour. The Turbo's distinctive rear wing let the world know that this was something very special. It was nothing less than the rebirth of the high-performance automobile. At a time when the big-block engines in America's so-called "muscle cars" were putting out 180 horsepower and the engines in exotic supercars weren't much more ambitious, the lightweight Porsche was a genuine rocket. Porsche Turbo: The Inside Story of Stuttgart's Turbocharged Road and Race Cars celebrates Porsche's five decades of turbocharged supercar performance, both on the track and on the street. It covers all of the major racing cars as well as the turbocharged street cars, including the 930, 935, 924, 944, 968, 911, and Cayenne Panamera. Don't let this one fly past you!
