Default 3000GT ad sighting (you haven't seen this one before!)

I attended the 2008 injury biomechanics symposium at the Ohio State University this year (and went home with the Dr. Hines best poster presentation award...sorry, just had to gloat a bit) and one of the main sponsors was the Transportation Research Center Inc (TRC). Basically, they're a huge research and development center in East Liberty, Ohio and they do a wide range of testing from fuel economy, emissions, crash simulations, and safety. Anyway, they had a bunch of information packets for all of the symposium attendees to take, so I snagged one, opened it up and much to my surprise, I found this:



And just so you can get a better idea of their facility:



Basically, I want to work here. There was a tour given of the facility after the symposium. I didn't attend because it was a 3 hour tour and I had to catch a flight back to Philly (which ended up being delayed 3 hours anyway), but we met up with some people at the airport while we were waiting for our airplane to arrive and they said the tour guide was taking them around the track at like 80mph with 12 people in the van. Oh well, I guess I'll have to go back next year!

Very accurate depiction of our infamous wheel gap.

And that would be a pretty good place to work!

I had another probably unseen pic in my Advertising text book 2 years ago from high school. It was a red SOHC and it too showed the impressively ridiculous wheel gap.
