Ever shot from the deck of a large ship or roof of a building at something 40+ ft below you?

Well,YOU were not driving ANY of those new 911 Porsches, so who can we call a dufus. At least they had a fun day.

Also, they are 'M' (Manufacturer) plates, so they are owned by either Porsche, another OEM or a Tier 1 or 2 supplier. Said 'dufus's' were being paid to drive those cars. What made them all Dufus's? The fact they were autos? Driving style? Jealousy?

Ok - point well taken. I was indeed the one in the souless 4 door.

Comment based only on a short stop-light dialogue where it was clear they knew nothing of the car, what transmission etc. I finally had to ask how many foot pedals?

But I'll take my lumps - they were also headed into the city, and I was headed to my desk.

If you check the image properties, you will see it came from Wikipedia, and that it shows "East_Timor_soldier_with_a_M14".

The soldier is shooting from the deck of a boat, with a US Marine Gunnery Sergent instructor, as part of the Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training

CARAT Timor-Leste is part of an annual bilateral exercise series between the U.S. Navy and the naval forces of Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand. As a longstanding venue in Southeast Asia, CARAT helps regional navies work together to address shared maritime security priorities during a series of cooperative training events and subject matter exchanges.

The Falintil-Forças de Defesa de Timor Leste (Tetum: Forcas Defesa Timor Lorosae, English: Timor Leste Defence Force) or FALINTIL-FDTL (often F-FDTL) is the military organisation responsible for the defence of East Timor. The F-FDTL was established in February 2001

I believe the photo was taken aboard the USS Kidd in 2014.
