NASCAR lovers love to remember that the roots of racing are associated with healing of moonshine and illegal trade in alcohol, but it is nothing crazy compared to the fact that came up after the race investigation in the period between 1975-1986. years. It appeared that the car crews made significant gains in addition with the sponsors for participating in drug trafficking schemes. Eight years with the help from some racers were transferred to 300 tons of marijuana. Some drivers went to prison, was even chasing and shootouts, but then, experts IMSA GT racing title decoded as the''International Marijuana Smugglers Association''.

Flowing village

This is Sanuao village located in China Fugiana provins. This is one of the few villages which are built on the water, in reality it is a pretty big challenge for people, because they just can not feel the ground. They live from o revenues derived from fishing, or even the ocean agriculture. They even own floating mail services, police and restaurants. World War 2 Sanuoa village experienced a great bombing from Japan, many times renovated again, this village is now China's largest aquatic farm in Wales as well as crawfish, shrimp farm, the whole village is surrounded by plenty of fishing nets and cages of about 10 thousand (fishing nets, view from that distance would be very nice) All the houses are mostly made of wood, Sanuao village is separated from the sea so people don't have to worry about big waves that could destroy their home, these are generally small waves, which circulate in Sanuao Village neighborhood. Of course it is also a major tourist attraction, because everyone wants to enjoy such a life on the water.

Nazi Super tanks

In 1942nd Krupa proposed this project, after the Soviet heavy tank of investigation. It was designed as a huge tank with tower from warship and the usual land-based weapons practically 23 cm - 0.7 foot thick armor. In the main tower there are two 280 mm guns, which were instaled only on a war ships and another 11 different guns, in other words a lot of weapons in one place. Also, "tank" was designed garage for two bikes, which use for spying. All this was to be subsumed in a 35 meters long and 11 meters high body (about fourth - fifth floor houses the height), weighted impressive 1,000 tons - 2 204 620 pounds.

In fact, this device would be a ship, more than tank, because to build it, it would need methods used by the shipyards. The engines for that monster was of vessels - 2 firm MAN engines, used by submarines with a total capacity of 17,000 hp (2x8500zs) or eight Daimler-Benz engines with a total capacity of 16,000 hp (8x2000zs). To carry this weight was down 6 rows of tracks, with 7 meters - 21 foot in width. It is understood that there was no bridge or road which will not break under this monster.

How quickly the project started so quickly it ended up in the 1943rd. The Industry Minister A. Speer said that this project is unreasonable spending of resources, namely, the material to be consumed in one such project, was able to build 50 more realistic tanks. The only thing that was done in this project, was built the tower and selected engines.

Landkreuzer P 1500 It would have been 42 meters long, 2,500 tons - 5 511 550 pounds heavy, 25 cm 0.8 foot thick iron-clad "ship". Forward this pile of metal push 4 (!) MAN (34 000 hp) (also used in submarines) engines to reach 15 km / h high speed. The main arsenal of weapons had to be 800 mm Dora / Schwerer Gustav. K. cannon and two machine guns 150 mm.
