Thursday Games: Grand Theft Auto Series

With Grand Theft Auto V (GTA5) coming out pretty soon, I supposed that now would be a good time for some high def wallpapers from the series, including the GTA5 one at the very top of the list. The rest of them are older wallpapers straight from images in the game, but they're still pretty good, so give them a look. ;]

Friday Cars #14: Formula One

If you love cars, whether it is driving them or studying them, especially serious cars with lots of power, then you will definitely adore those beautiful machines that participate in the Formula One (F1, Formula 1) racing. These beasts are made to go up to 220 miles per hour, and are so powerful that drivers can experience up to 5 G's of pull in corners.

Formula One cars are considered to be the fastest circuit-racing cars in the entire world, and are very aerodynamic. They have just one seat, for the sole driver, and they can really create wild accidents. It is a sight to behold when they crash. I can only imagine how much one must learn and study to even comprehend these things.

Friday Cars #13: Rally Cars

"Rallying, also known as rally racing, is a form of auto racing that takes place on public or private roads with modified production or specially built road-legal cars. This motorsport is distinguished by running not on a circuit, but instead in a point-to-point format in which participants and their co-drivers drive between set control points (special stages), leaving at regular intervals from one or more start points. Rallies may be won by pure speed within the stages or alternatively by driving to a predetermined ideal journey time within the stages." -Wikipedia

Friday Cars #10: Drifting

Ah, the sport of drifting. Taking a car around the turn in just the right amount of acceleration and brake, guiding it through the corner as the tail pulls around, and then to keep right on going as if no turn had even existed. The eloquence of the high-speed drift is something to be admired, and here we will admire it in the high definition wallpapers. Enjoy.
