Alfa Romeo Carabo 

The Carabo project was a collaborative effort between the Italian manufacturer and the Bertone styling house: a partnership which had previously borne fruits that included the 2000 Sportiva and BAT concept cars of the mid-1950s. The basis of the Carabo was a chassis numbered 75033.109 which was, more specifically, that of a 33 Stradale road car. Despite sharing mechanicals with the Tipo 33 race car and since being recognised as one of the most beautiful cars in history, Alfa had trouble finding owners for the Stradale due to its steep asking price of around $17,000. As a result, five of the Stradale chassis were passed to Italian carrozzerie: two to Pininfarina (used for the 33.2 and Cuneo concepts), one to Italdesign (which became the Iguana concept), and two to Bertone – the other being used as a basis for the 1976 Navajo concept.

The H-shaped tubular chassis supported an all-aluminium 1995cc engine which was designed by Carlo Chiti and, incidentally, was the first Alfa Romeo V8. The fuel-injected, longitudinally mounted motor used chain-driven camshafts and red-lined at 10,000rpm, despite being detuned to 230bhp from the Tipo race car’s 250-270bhp. This granted the Carabo a top speed of 160mph and the ability to dispatch the 0-62mph sprint in 5.5 seconds, with the power being sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed, syncromeshed, transaxle gearbox designed by Valerio Colotti.

Because of its underpinnings, designer Marcelo Gandini had the opportunity to create a car that would revolutionise the automotive industry for many years afterwards. The engine being mounted amidships allowed for a pointed front end, while the ground-hugging poise inherited from the Tipo race car meant the car was under a metre tall at its highest point. Combined with the squared-off rear end, these characteristics inspired countless wedge-shaped designs of the 70s and 80s, and also gave the car its name and colour: Carabo is derived from ‘Carabidae’, a family of ground-beetles with a distinctive green and gold colour.

The principle of the wedge-shaped profile was used to eliminate the high-speed aerodynamic lift troubles of the Lamborghini Miura, which Gandini had penned two years earlier. However, his innovative cerebration didn’t stop there: as well as having headlights hidden beneath active flaps, the Carabo was the first concept car with front-hinged wing doors, later used by Gandini when designing the Lamborghini Countach and since assuming the ‘Lamborghini doors’ meme. As well as inspiring the revolutionary raging bull, the Carabo clearly also lent styling cues to the Lancia Stratos Zero concept car, which in turn inspired the iconic Stratos HF. Unsurprisingly, the Carabo remained a one-off, but its revolutionary styling dramatically steered the automotive design industry onto a radically different path – one which produced some of the landmark cars of the 20th Century. Even those who can’t look favourably on its apparent aversion to curved surfaces should take a second to appreciate its legacy; after all, would an Aventador have quite the same drama without its ‘Carabo doors’?

Hit by an Indictment

* * * *

Chris Christie is moving in the polls while Pence, Haley and Hutchinson remain stuck in the political equivalent of a vegetative state. DeSantis remains in second position, but his trajectory has been a plummet that would track Felix Baumgartner’s descent line.

Felix Baumgartner jumped to Earth from a helium balloon from the stratosphere in 2012 and landed in New Mexico, as part of the Red Bull Stratos project.

Senator Tim Scott will be the chief beneficiary of further attrition by DeSantis. He is primed to move up into a competitive space. It will put him in direct competition with DeSantis in the early fall period of the campaign, which will preface the long turn towards the early primary states — and the grueling competition that will follow.

Timing is an under-appreciated force in a presidential campaign. The candidate and the moment have to align for there to be a possibility of capturing the White House.  Chris Christie would have been the GOP nominee in 2012 had he gone for it, but he hesitated. He was an also-ran in 2016, and has been written off by the familiar pundits who are almost always wrong about everything. Christie has moved first in the primary race, filling the truth-telling, anti-Trump space. How he got there will be a constant drag on his campaign, and is a fundamental design flaw of his own creation. Yet, Christie’s burdens are significantly less than his competitors of which he is, by far, the most talented in every category that matters in the endurance race that is a presidential campaign.

Donald Trump has become a ratings kiss of death as evidenced by the low ratings associated with the events produced for him by networks like CNN. Trump isn’t the star he once was. He has faded away into the leading actor in an ensemble of weakness, cowardice, perfidy and Chris Christie. There is no drama in the race whatsoever beyond the looming confrontation between Chris Christie and Donald Trump in the coming debates. Should Chris Christie have done what he is about to do many years ago? Yes, he should have. The important thing is that he is doing it now, and it is not too late. Other candidates who have long trembled in front of Trump are making their first tepid criticisms of the man who was untouchable just weeks ago.

Trump will be a man running in cement over the months ahead. His indictments and investigations will glue him to the ground. The wheels of justice grind slowly, as they say. His bill has come due. Trump is deflating in real time.

Christie was too early in 2012 and too late in 2016.  It is a mistake to write him off for the GOP nomination. He has an experienced team of pragmatic advisors who are smart, sane and strategic. None of them are under any illusions about Christie’s substantial deficits. However, none are blinded to his substantial attributes that are missed by the punditocracy.

There is another dynamic that is building within the 2024 campaign. The American people aren’t keen on a Biden-Trump rematch.

Think about the toddler game where a board contains cutouts in different shapes that match differently shaped blocks. The political system is currently offering a square hole to a country looking for a round one. What will happen as that block is banged over and over again into the wood board? It will start to crack.

Already there are some fissures showing. The nascent Biden campaign will enter the summer facing an opponent who is polling between 15 and 20%. The strategy of pretending he doesn’t exist will crack in early autumn as Robert Kennedy Jr. climbs in the polls towards 30% and early victories in Iowa and New Hampshire. The insistence that these states won’t count in the Democratic primaries by party officials in Washington, DC, is delusional. Losses by an incumbent president under any circumstances would be catastrophic politically. Keep an eye on the filing deadlines in the fall. The chances that the race is settled go down every day. Gavin Newsom is playing his role in the great game near perfectly. His sparring with Sean Hannity showed he is ready for prime time. He represents youth, renewal, and a Democratic Party that can confidently communicate about the dangers of an extremist movement the country is facing.

The political race will lock in place between July 4th and Labor Day. After that, it will move quickly and promises to be as volatile as any race has been in recent memory. Anything can happen. Buckle up!

[protocolseben]

did you guys know in 2013 seb made a helmet to commemorate 1 year of the Red Bull Stratos jump which was basically Red Bull sponsoring some scientists and a guy going "Hey, what if we skydived from the edge of space" because that's just Red Bull and they like that insanity shit.

anyway look at the helmet and tell me you aren't jazzed to draw a space suit

Should I indulge myself and draw seb in a space suit. I can right. I mean a space suit is just a race suit but with so much funny clunky gear and pure white and that German stripe running down adds just a nice touch to it all
