Here’s a little montage of all of the Fast and Furious movies’ shifting all rolled into one little video…. makes you ask yourself why do they seem to have a 15 spd transmission and why are the quarter mile races taking 5 minutes?

Hair Washing Robot?
It’s nice to see new innovations as our technologies advance. Panasonic developed a hair washing robot that has 24 fingers, 16 which are split between two arms and 8 for the back of the scalp, that automatically scan your head to determine the correct amount of pressure applied to the scalp when shampooing and washing hair. It can even recognize and memorize different head types. This was developed for hospitals and healthcare facilities where the workers cannot accommodate for all the patients that need to be washed.
Although the hair washing robot was made for the healthcare industry, it more likely to also end up in salons or even at home if it does the job right every time. Well, it’s just one step closer to a fully robotic society…

Lexus Ct200h on SSR MS3
Check out Matt’s newly finished CT200h on 19″ SSR MS3s! These MS3s also have a crap load of Swarovsky Crystals on them with the whole car having over 25,000 of them placed on the car by hand! Lots of tedious attention to detail! This car is also rocking the 1st Aimgain kit for the CT200 in the states as well as Garsen interior peices. This car also won Best Lexus (other) at this past weekend’s TORC event in Long Beach.
