2004 Sprint Car Xtreme Series J. D. Byrider 1:24 ACTION Danny Lasoski












The National Sprint Tour was a United States sprint car racing league. It formed in 2005 as a rival to the World of Outlaws. The series folded after one season. The series was started by Brownfield Promotions, Inc. of Snohomish, Washington. The series featured 410 winged sprint cars. After the death of Fred Brownfield, the series was bought by Don Lamberti and Lonnie Parsons (#6 Casey's General Store), Guy Stockbridge (#14 Elite Racing), and Steve Kinser (#11 Quaker State).

Notable former drivers in the NST included 20-time World of Outlaws champion Steve Kinser (Steve Kinser Racing), Danny Lasoski (Roth Motorsports), and Tim Kaeding (Previously Steve Kinser Racing). Lasoski won the inaugural NST championship.
Most of Lasoski's sprint car experience is in the World of Outlaws series, winning the WoO championship in 2001, and finishing second four times, in 1999, 2002, 2003, and 2004. He won the premiere event in sprint car racing, the Knoxville Nationals, in 1998, 2001, 2003 and 2004. Lasoski also won the 360 Nationals in 1995. He raced in the National Sprint Tour in 2006, winning the series' only championship. He rejoined the World of Outlaws after the season, and the NST folded. He has won 122 World of Outlaw feature events and was one of the more popular drivers on the tour.

In January 2014 Lasoski teamed up with Andy Cobb to compete in multiple national tours to include the World of Outlaws.

Lasoski joined forces in 2015 with car owner Tod Quiring and crew chief Guy Forbrook to win the inaugural National Sprint League (NSL) Championship. Lasoski has also won 11 Knoxville Raceway track championships (1986, 1989, 1990, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996, 2008, 2011, 2015, 2016). He has won more races than any other driver with 112 career wins as of June 24, 2017, in the 410 division at Knoxville Raceway. He also has 37 career wins with the All Star Circuit of Champions.

Lasoski has driven for some of the top sprint car teams in the sport including Tod Quiring, Dennis Roth, Tony Stewart, and Casey Luna.

Lasoski is the uncle to professional sprint car racer Brian Brown.

El Porsche 911 es un automóvil deportivo de lujo producido por el fabricante alemán Porsche AG, desde 1964. A través de los años, ha pasado por varias regeneraciones. De todas formas, muchas de las características del modelo original se conservan, como su configuración «todo atrás», su carrocería coupé fastback, el motor bóxer de seis cilindros y un interior con configuración 2+2 plazas.
Existen ocho generaciones que fueron puestas a la venta en los años 1964, 1974, 1988, 1993, 1998, 2004, 2011 y 2018; y que se distinguen por su código de proyecto: 901, 930, 964, 993, 996, 997, 991 y 992.Nomenclatura 911
El prototipo fue denominado «Porsche 901», pero una demanda de Peugeot llevó a que el nombre comercial se cambiara a 911, el mismo número de emergencias en Estados Unidos, con lo que su fama comenzó a incrementarse notablemente.
No todos los modelos 911 producidos se mencionan aquí. La lista de los modelos se caracterizan por su papel en los avances de la tecnología y su influencia en otros vehículos de Porsche. Siempre ha sido y es vendido como 911, aunque usó el código interno, también existieron variaciones híbridas en la época de los años 1980.
La serie de letras (A, B, C, etc.) es utilizada para indicar una nueva revisión del modelo de automóvil producido. Acostumbra a cambiarse anualmente reflejando el cambio de modelo para ese año. Los primeros modelos 911 son la Serie A, mientras que los primeros modelos 933 son la Serie R.
El modelo original, a veces también llamado 911 clásico, es el primer coche de la larga saga, uno de los emblemas más prestigiosos desarrollados por el fabricante alemán.

2002 Ford Thunderbird Show Car Maisto 1:25












The eleventh generation of the Ford Thunderbird (internally codenamed M205) is a two-seat convertible manufactured and marketed by Ford from 2001 to 2005 for model years 2002 through 2005. It followed a five-year hiatus of the Thunderbird after the 1997 discontinuation of its tenth generation.

Evoking the exterior styling of the earliest Thunderbirds, the eleventh generation features a removable hardtop with a prominent porthole window, power folding fabric top, and vinyl tonneau cover. Sharing mechanicals with the Lincoln LS and using Ford's DEW platform, it has a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout with a 3.9-liter (240-cubic-inch) V8 engine and a five-speed automatic transmission.

Part of a retro-styling trend in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the concept was introduced by Ford in 1999. The production model debuted two years later, winning the Motor Trend Car of the Year award for 2002. Despite this, the eleventh-generation Thunderbird never achieved its sales projections and was discontinued after 2005. After studying alternatives, including the closely related Lincoln MK9 concept, Ford declined to introduce subsequent generations of the Thunderbird.

The eleventh generation reach a production of just under 70,000 over four model years. Critics attributed the lackluster sales to poor marketing.
