Tiger / Nike ad for The Masters

Noticed that Nike have got a new Tiger ad in time for his comeback at The Masters this week featuring the voice of his father.

Brave attempt by Nike. Personally, I am not so sure about this but thought that it was worth setting the record straight and I hope it allows them to focus on golf / performance in the future.

How does everyone else feel about it?

New York Auto Show

Visited the NY Auto Show today. Held at the Javit Center on the West Side Highway. Some amazing cars which you can see below. There was a theme across most of the mainstream cars around environmental sustainability - particularly from Mercedes, BMW, Ford, Audi and Porsche. Rather than talk about that, I have done what Jeremy Clarkson would do and focused on the great cars that just deliver pure power or just look great....as well as one from yesteryear that featured on a hit TV Show. Enjoy!

1. Infiniti Concept Car. By far the best car on show. Saw this at the Pebble Beach Concours and the more you look at it, the better it gets!



2. Mercedes SLS AMG
6.3 liter V8 front mid engine developing 571hp!



3. Aston Martin Gulf Car



4. Porsche Panamera - 4.8 liter V8 generating 400hp!



5. Bentley Continental Supersports - The fastest and most Powerful Bentley ever. 0-60 in 3.7 secs with top speed of 204mph. 6.0 liter V-12 engine with 621hp!



6. The car that was featured in the hit show The Monkees!



7. Audi R8 - The 2010 Performance Car of The Year. 4.2 liter V8 Engine with 420hp. The 2010 model will generate 525hp!



8. Dodge Viper - beautiful!

A Great Ad

Thought this ad was very good - great attention all the way through with a nice pay off at the end linked to the product it was advertising.
