the one eyed skulls and flying eyeball of Scott Owen in the Rich Evans Hummer

Touch a Truck, an annual and growing event that raises funds, and kids interest in big rigs, semi's, and trucks has grown to the point that it happens in the Qualcomm stadium parking lot now

This family-friendly car show is a sure hit with kids and parents alike, as all the vehicles are open for you to climb in and honk the horn! From the Wells Fargo Stage Coach to Robosaurus, military vehicles to monster trucks, Harley's to HumVees, classic cars to emergency vehicles, big rigs to construction rigs. Touch A Truck will please your palate, too, with 20 gourmet food trucks, an old fashioned bake sale, lemonade "experience", and more

This is Robosaurus! I didn't get there early enough to catch it in action, I had a car show I was at before this years Touch a Truck.. some days there are more than one car show to see.

The Boogie Brothers Blues Band was pretty good! I liked them, and their playlist, though I doubt the kids were able to hear the music.. the kids were HYPED up!

Max's Ring of Fire (MROF), a 501(c)3 tax-exempt public charity, is a pediatric cancer fundraising and advocacy organization that supports innovative pediatric cancer research and clinical trials. We are dedicated to funding practical, relevant Phase I and II clinical trials which are based on research from the University of Vermont, University of Texas/M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, University of Hawaii, UCSD, the Van Andel Institute, among others.

We also focus on speed, by helping to bring new therapies to the bedside now for the patients that need them most - those with advanced relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. These are the hard cases that most oncology research frequently overlooks - yet it is these difficult cases that likely hold the key to finding the answer to cancer.

100% of every donated dollar is guaranteed to fund meaningful neuroblastoma research and clinical trials.

the wide variety of cool car stuff I found on The Kevin Chen . wordpress.com

 the above is incredible timing by the photographer. Astonishing.

 Wow. Has training wheels, cause it weighs so much you ain't gonna be able to pick it up when it falls over

 all righty. This is the most overkill of the flying tigers motif, but I like it, it works.

 Dead on. Nailed it.

 If you wonder why the above is interesting, look at a Veyron

 1962 Indianapolis car of Lesovsky

 Photoshopped, but bitchin

 cause yes, smoking is deadly, but still looks cool

 The reason the engine is displayed, is the photo on the wall behind it, of the racing boat

 this looks like fun actually

 yeah, the bike takes a second to work out... but it's revolutionary.

 Soooo happy days

 Grrrr

 Solex motor scooter coverted to hubless rims... now that is a lot of time on an inventors hands.

 Not photoshopped.... but unreal. I don't have answers, just freaky photos

 Oklahoma state troopers seized this Busa, then said screw it, we need to see how long it takes for a cop to kill himself on it. Seriously you morons, it's a 200 mph suicide machine... you have radios, lots of cops for back up, and probably even telephones, and helicopters. You don't need to chase the bad guys at 200mph. Or even at 100mph. Use your brains while their inside the helmet, not splattered on the back of a semi trailer

 Yup, if the town has a name, that name in front of the word "Police" is going to sound funny to everyone who doesn't live there

 Ride the goat.

 Steve McQueen's Siata interior, and Tag Heuers

ummm, rubbbing is racing even when it's not at a Nascar event?

All from the very enormous diversity and eminently enjoyable http://thekevinchen.wordpress.com/
