Crown Range in New Zealand
此段路近皇后鎮，往MT. COOK 地區可放棄主要公路而選經此條有趣道路。
Mad Mike drifting Crown Range in New Zealand
The Crown Range, New Zealand. 47 corners, 1076 metres elevation, 10.4km long. The country's highest paved roadway. For a moment in time it belongs to one man, Mike Whiddett. The moment will become, the drive of a lifetime.
The former state highway cuts a path between Queenstown and Wanaka. It is a short cut, which has long been a route for travellers. The first track dates back to the early gold rush days. The road now is still one of the most demanding and technical drives of the country.
The drive for Mike Whiddett will be challenging and faster than most. For the first time in NZ motorsport history, the road has been closed across three sections for a unique filming opportunity. The New Zealand-based international drift driver has a chance to push his bespoke quad-rotor rotary engine car to new limits on a completely clear road. The road closure signs are rolled out; it is time for Mad Mike to Conquer the Crown.
On paper, the first section of the road appears to be the trickiest. Seven consecutive hairpin turns on a near-vertical mountainside climb give the Switchbacks their name. The second section is all about speed. Whiddett pulls sixth gear along the Crown Terrace and winds the Mazda RX7's 750 horsepower engine out to its redline. He hits 232km/h before slowing, fleetingly pulling on the handbrake to lock the rear wheels before stomping back on the accelerator. The tyres erupt back into a spinning frenzy; black marks the bitumen. This is drifting nirvana in its purest form.
The run up to the Crown Summit is a fusion of high, medium and low speed bends, created to attack sideways. With barriers flanking the road at one side and exposed banks at the other, it mimics the mountain touge roads that the Japanese forefathers of the sport originally, and illicitly, ran by moonlight. The margin for error is slim here, but Whiddett never backs off as the final forty-seventh corner passes by in a blur.
"I think drifters have an innate ability to slip from reality when driving up a road like the Crown Range in normal circumstances. We imagine drifting through the turns, the gear changes, the footwork, the hand brake and of course stomping on the gas. So for me, having the opportunity to get behind the wheel of my machine, push it to the limit and conquer the Crown is a dream turned into a reality," says Whiddett.
The Crown: conquered.

住車又如何? 二人如此, 有罪的嗎?
日本電影-與死去妻子的旅途-死にゆく妻との旅路
單身女蝸居20呎迷你倉 月租700
【明報專訊】貧窮單身蝸居愈來愈迷你，正當100方呎劏房都索租四五千元之際，原用作儲物的「迷你倉」也被當作廉價市區宿舍，有觀塘工廈管理員發現近半年不時有人半夜進入設有迷你倉的工廈 ...
再甘落去, 大家都要住蝸居, 俺情願住車, 可以4海為家, 享受陽光大自然, 得閒海邊飲清酒, 去看日落，真正窮風流無屋都快活。
能和自己喜愛的人去流浪人生最後日子,死亦含笑吧, 總比無尊嚴死在醫院好得多。 俺要面對死亡時會考慮這種有尊嚴的去....
二人如此, 有罪的嗎?
