People like to talk about their cars like they're an extension of themselves. More than just metal and rubber and oil, there's a connection between man and machine as close as the mind and the body. Most of these people are just talk, no matter how passionate they really are about their vehicles. Camilo Pardo is not one of these people. Camilo is on his sixth 2005 Ford GT, and the Ford GT is literally part of him — he was the lead designer at Ford's SVT Studio that designed the car.

Originally released in 1982, the aptly named Nike Field General was originally designed for wear by pro quarterbacks.

Computer generated effects might get all the press when a film is released, but practical effects — puppets, animatronics, costumes — are better than ever. They can even rival their digital brethren for realism, and keep the audience out of the uncanny valley.
