    They've got a P38 Lightning too. There's a guy in San Antonio who built it for them. I think it's completely polished like that B25. They flew that one, another one owned by the friend of the San Antonio plane builder, and a P51 up to our little airport here in Brownwood. It may have been the Red Bull plane's first real trip. I think it was going to them sometime this year or next year after it was 100% completed.

    EDIT: Looked in that link, the P38 is already there. Nevermind...

    Didn't somebody on here a couple years back contact Red Bull and try to buy one of the Minis and they were told they aren't for public use??

    If they applied that standard to their products, they would't have so much stuff.........

    Does Red Bull the company really make so much money that they can afford to sponsor all the various things they sponsor? I realize they sell a lot of cans of the "soda", but funding things like F1 teams costs $100-300 million dollars per year, depending on who you believe. That seems like a lot of money just from selling energy drinks.

    There is a lot of profit in each of those little cans.

    A couple years ago I saw one of these running around on campus all the time. Still never tried the stuff.

    They had some hot as E36 M3 girls working that car when they came to my campus in very tight pants. That cars was popular.

    They did the same thing at a Land Rover rally. First day, we had the big bucket o'bull and pretty girls handing them out. Everybody had one. The second day, the bucket remained but the girls were gone. Nobody would touch the stuff :)

    I don't really ~like~ the stuff, but am convinced it's good for time autocrossing and doing TTs.

    At a long, hot day at Summit I was mentally tired - 1st session after a Red Bull the world slowed down and my lap times improved. It works.
