Au contraire mon frere, on both counts! Those bikes might be little (some have more funny-car-esque proportions), but they're loud AND fast. They cover at least 200 meters in less than five seconds. Also, few cultures are more prone to bigger dick contests than one finds in the Middle East. The shocker about this one is that it was legal and organized with safety personnel on hand and not simply some yahoos in the street.

Trevor Cunningham - day at the races. This squat vehicle with its toy-like tires doesn't seem capable of achieving the blinding speed of more powerful dragsters, so the cloud of exhaust seems almost a parody. And of course the image doesn't conform at all to the usual stereotypes of the goings on in Saudi Arabia.
