A Tech ME student built this to demonstrate for the Auto Show on Saturday. Once he began trying to "crank" it, its enormously loud backfires attracted pretty much everyone at the show, who decided they didn't like being "safe" all the time.

I use a Canon Digital Rebel (300D), with a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens for this shot. I was quite a few paces away in case the thing destroyed itself.
