I am not sure if I should be laughing at the car or that he’s still bragging about his BB Pin.

No Parking For Trucks at the Marina Dbayyeh

Posted by Najib

20130225_071817

You can’t really blame the municipality or police officers as it’s very hard to spot a truck stationed in Marina Dbayyeh with all the buildings and towers there. On a serious note, the only place where trucks can hide is behind Emile Lahoud’s ugly Olympic pool, the one that cost us 18 million dollars yet was never finished.

Marche du Pont bridge no longer safe

I don’t know how reliable this information is, or who issued the warning, but authorities need to move fast and make sure it’s safe as the bridge is highly frequented. The last thing we need is another tragic incident in this country.

Keep your cars on the road

I don’t know what’s happening to people this week but that’s the third car I see that landed on the grass somehow. I am guessing they were speeding or probably trying to escape a pothole.

Watch out for certain cabs in Achrafieh/Sin el Fil area

Picture from ThisisBeirut

I saw this post on AlienInBeirut and thought I alert both male and female readers of the blog. I advise women to take Banet Taxi, a women-only taxi, to be on the safe side and not worry about a thing.

NEWS: There is a gang of 3 males (1 driver and 2 supposed passangers) robbing and attacking passengers in a service/taxi in the Achrafieh/Sin el-Fil area of Beirut.

Almost everyone I know in Beirut knows of someone who this has happened to, many of victims were slashed as well. Some friends even said that a couple of the victims were sandwiched into the back seat between the two male passengers who held a knife to them. Sometimes they only rob, sometimes they rob and slash the victim with the knife.

Please keep vigilant when taking a service/taxi and circulate this news as knowledge is our best form of protection and prevention at the moment until they are caught.

As a general rule, never get into a service which has 2 male passengers in it.

Believe it or not, if someone jumps off a building and lands on your car in Lebanon, it’s your car’s fault. If the person dies, you go to jail for 6 months.



VIDEO: Abdo Feghali’s longest drift in a car

Posted by Najib

This is a the first video that was revealed of the world’s longest continuous drift, set by Lebanese driver Abdo Feghali using a Chevrolet Camaro SS. Abdo drifted for a duration of 14.18 minutes covering a distance 11,180 meters. [RedBull]



Abdo Feghali breaks “Longest Drift in a Car” World Record

Posted by Najib

Feghali

I will post the video as soon as I find one.

Lebanese driver Abdo Feghali, best known for being Red Bull’s frontman at drifting events, has apparently just set the world record for the longest continuous drift, as certified by the Guiness Book of Records.

As news trickles in from the record attempt today morning at the skidpad in Yas Marina Abu Dhabi, Abdo Feghali managed to double the previous record, with a distance of more than 11 km using a Chevrolet Camaro SS. We assume he was going around in a large-diameter circle to keep the drift going in an area no larger than a football pitch. While the car matters little in a stunt like this, we’d be more interested to know what tyres he used for this feat, if he made them last twice as long! [Source]

Carscoop posted pictures of the Lykan’s interior taken from a digital brochure they were able to get their hands on.

The Lykan has been launched for over a week now and according to W Motors CEO Ralph Debbas, they’ve received more than a hundred requests from around the world to buy one. Unfortunately and for some reason I can’t seem to understand, they only produced 7 out of which 1 was already sold.

I am not sure if we can only call this a pothole. It takes time and dedication to come up with something like that.
