Red Bull is like Ferrari. The energy drink is sold only to fund the airplanes.

I knew they had some aeronautical toys, but this I didn't expect.

I think they have their hands in every type of motorsport. They have some serious name recognition.

Try Red Bull Cola. It's delicious.

Also, if F1 viewing has taught me anything, Red Bull apparently also has a Mobile brand.

Red Bull Mobile.

I'm not sure I'd want an attack helicopter pilot to be hopped up on Red Bull. Things might end up like Dethklok's "Hatredcopter" video.

I like sugar free Redbull, but try to avoid caffiene.

And I read something about energy drinks causing spikes in all kinds of nasty chemicals in your blood after drinking them.

Robby Gordon is using the "sell energy drinks to fund cool motorsports" mission statement as Red bull.. he started his own energy drink brand- Speed energy- to fund his NASCAR and off road racing dreams. he got all sorts of free publicity last fall when he got his personal truck towed at a NASCAR race for having "Speed energy" logos all over it in the parking lot at the race that was sponsored by Amp Energy..

I wonder if they could reengine that DC with turboprops. I know they do it do DC-3s...

Less traditional, but they put a leather seat in a B-25, for god's sake!

Imagine being the guy being told, "Now, go polish every inch of that plane. And I want to see my face's reflection in it when you're done." He's either retired, or in a padded cell.

We had one come to our Campus one time, but it was a Chevy Tracker with the can on the back.
