Reviewing this gig could be a problem. In fact, I’m not sure if I’m even reviewing it on the right blog. Yes, it was a gig, but it was also the launch of a new car, and featured some pretty kickass tech, so perhaps it should be over at Electric Spectre. So it is. But it’s on Downtuned too. I’m just confusing myself.

This doesn’t work in Britain because it’s hard to be threatening in a pimped out Ford Fiesta, and frankly, I’m not surprised Australia passed on the idea, it probably wasn’t hard enough for those guys. Anyway US Citizens, with gas prices the way they are, these guys might have the right idea, so sign up today!
