We went to the Manila International Auto Show at the World Trace Center in Pasay City yesterday. Though I was personally disappointed to miss the Lamborghini, Toyota Trueno, Maserati and Ferrari they had last year, it was nonetheless fun.
The highlight of this MIAS of course, was the Russ Swift Precision Driving Stunt. Here are several photos that show how Russ Swift can maneuver his car to park in a very very tight space. This is called Parallel Parking extra-ordinaire, with screeching tires and burning rubber
Two cars parked one in front of another with enough space for another car to park in between. The red car is a Subaru Impreza WRX STI. That’s what Russ is driving.
There he is at 16:02 pm, in the red Subaru, getting ready to park the car into a tiny, tiny space.
Positioning the car into the tiny space, still at 16:02 pm. Note the man sitting in the back of another Subaru.
There. Its done, still at 16;02, he has parked the car, with just a teeny-tiny bit of a distance between the two cars.
The crowd went wild, of course!
The show’s spectators also went wild over the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X being exhibited inside. Click here to see how the car looks like.
