In the spirit of the DB driver thread...

Who the F is going to cut you off in that? Its street legal to!


I wonder how fast a dimwit tailgater will back off if you swing that gun around.

I'd drive it.

That looks like fun.

A friend of ours has a fully restored Ferret Mk2.
We drove it to a Sonic Drive-in once.
It didn’t go over so well. Lot’s of cops came out of nowhere.
It took about an hour of showing paperwork and lots of talking to get aout of there.


I always got a chuckle from the old bumper stickers that say:
"Back off – Or I’ll flick a bugger on your windshield.”

I would just have to rig up the cannon to have a flag pop out that says "BOOM", just like in cartoons.
