Battistinis, Winter ride out . . . . . .












When its nearly December and you can go for a good surf in the morning and not feel dead from  freezing and then in the afternoon go out on custom bikes in the dry something very weird is happening with the weather, however as long as it stays like this we think all is good!

Battistinis, Throttle up and drive at 744 kmph . . . . . .


It’s hard to appreciate the blinding speed here but its 677 feet per second flying by!!!!
Poteet and Main Speed Demon is the twin turbo, 2,200 horsepower streamliner that recently ran the the fastest speed ever recorded by a wheel driven, non-jet engined car on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Back in September, she recorded an entry speed of 452.94 mph, a mile speed of 457.96 mph and an exit speed of 462.34 mph during the Mike Cook Bonneville Shootout

SIMPLY WILD!!!!

Battistinis, The advent calendar . . . . . . .


So tomorrow is the true start of the countdown to Christmas being that December has already come around. Well at times we have stooped low here in the shop with tricks and stunts pulled on each other but seriously we cannot believe that those swines at work have cut the back off the advent calendar and ate all the bloody chocolates! Every single one of them and its not even December! Shame on you, and yes we know exactly who it was and just hope that the session of eating 24 chocolates back to back was worth it!!!!! However the question still remains who’s advent calendar and Christmas they have spoilt but we are sure that this will all become apparent in the morning!!!!
