(Photo: Robert Beam via WBKO) On Thursday, one hell of a storm blew through the Western Kentucky area. While BangShift Mid-West HQ was getting hit with winds heavy enough to uproot plants (seriously!) and rains that would’ve freaked out Noah himself, yours truly was…well, to be honest, glued to a weather site while camping in the main bathroom with three cats until the storm moved on. I don’t mess around when it comes to the phrase “potential tornadoes”, and when it sounds like one entire wall of my house is being sandblasted at once by rain, I’m convinced that safety becomes paramount. I’ve experienced enough close calls in life, from funnel clouds to lightning strikes to bumper-deep water blocking the road. Mother Nature can be a charming individual, and she can be absolutely unholy…and Thursday, she was in one hell of a mood.
There was no tornado, and the rains, though heavy, did die down. But the lightning was pretty pervasive, and shortly after the storm trekked on eastward, I got this image in my inbox, which seems to show Zeus’s personal approval for Preston Massey’s Pontiac Trans Am. Honestly, this is a “mic-drop” picture, because you simply aren’t going to ever be able to top just how cool this is, are you? It doesn’t matter if you have Jessica Alba doing her best Tawny Kitaen hood crawl impression, this is the ultimate photo of your car. The Pontac Trans Am: Approved By Greek Gods.
6 ft to the right and it would have been kentucky fried thunderchicken.
“Hey look…I’m a human fulgurite” !

All I did was THINK that someone should swap a Coyote Crate motor into that F-body,to make up for all those LS Fox cars out there.
FFS, I didn’t even say it out loud!!

Better luck next time, Lord God – do us all a favour and vapourise this hunka shit….
