Interesting set of stories (to me anyway) from Larry Webster's (Hagerty Media) 'Never Stop Driving' article today. There's the carbon fiber tubbed McLaren MP4/4 F1 car from 1988 that won fifteen of sixteen 1988 F1 races (pictured below), a link to the CEO of Sacrilege Motors a company electrifying vintage 911s (!!!), and a stolen load of new C8 Corvettes.

The tires on the McLaren F1 car!

But it's mostly about a conversation Mr Webster had with the CEO of a company developing VTOLs.
