This is news? oops it's Saturday so I guess it's entertainment lol

Red bull is a sponsor. Red Bull and Singha are business partners in the Thailand Ferrari distributorship. Whatever happened to the Red Bull hit and run cop killing with the Ferrari and the outstanding arrest warrants for the perpetrator? Why isn't the Thai military dictatorship following up on this high profile case that was all over the Thai news?

Alcholic beverages now aligning itself with activities involving speed and vehicles? That is sensible. Red Bull can do it because it is an energy drink ......... but beer and whisky?

And that tagline...."how speed will change your life" ...... massive safety campaigns in the UK usually finish with "Speed Kills" as it does frequently in Thailand.

Really? How?

I'd understand this quote better if contestants had to create/improve/design something linked to car development or the fastest, most environmentally clean remote controlled car (toy) or something of that ilk.

This competition seems to be more of a writing competition (is it open to Burmese citizens?).

If I was a cynical man I'd say the quote was just meaningless PR gobbledygook.

Oh, wait, hang on,

I am and I do.

I would rather have 4 singha pretties accompany me but I suspect JT will be entering this contest en masse ...

Anything where I see Red Bull I stop reading. Did I miss anything?

Noitom,  there's another thread which hasn't be opened for comment yet and may not be that the general was named fugitives from Lese Majeste charges who are to pursued and extradited.

 

Fair enough but what about all the other high fugitives that appear to have been ignored ?

For example,  the Red Bull as you have mentioned,  the fugitive ex-monk supposedly in the US with all the money he was able to withdraw before his accounts were frozen because Tarit gave advance warning of what DSI was about to do.  Of course i don't have to mention an ex-PM but will anyway and who knows after tomorrow maybe his sister too.

How speed will change your life?

What's actually needed is "How braking or slowing down could keep you alive?".

Anything where I see Red Bull I stop reading. Did I miss anything?

Nothing really,  the Red Bull heir has been seized by remorse and has bought a private jet to fly back and turn himself in.

Unfortunately the prosecution / BIB have had to announce the case papers have gone ' missing ' and the judge who would have heard the case has been sacked.

 

No,  you didn't miss anything out of the ordinary.

I can also offer free seats to a major circuit right here in Bkk on Rama 9 every night start at 2am, experience the earth-shattering revving of engines, the high-octane cornering, the tire squealing of too-late braking and the siren song of emergency vehicles in the still of the night...

 

Yeah, get your motor running

head out on the highway

looking for adventure...

 Yes they did. You may like to research it yourself.

Yes, it is.  And guess what, the idea of news items of this type is to get people to read them.  And guess what?  You read it!  Kind of takes the sting out of your piss-take.

Because he's in a country with no extradition treaty with Thailand, perhaps?

"..."Speed Kills" as it does frequently..."

 

In actual fact, speed doesn't kill.

...and green tea, and energy drinks, and rice.  There's more to Singha than beer.

 

Why did you try to bring whisky into the thread?
 

Anything where I see Red Bull I stop reading. Did I miss anything?

 

If you did, it probably would have to be explained to you, so don't worry about it too much.
 

Don't ask a man to drink and drive.

'How speed will change your life'. Rather an unfortunate choice of a slogan as 'speed' = yaba.

Any road in Thailand is a speed track,......

What a load of b**sh*t! This has nothing to do with "How speed will change your life?". Or, maybe, end it. This is all about media grabbing headlines for the companies involved. In other words, just advertising of the promoters/companies and their products in a different way.

 

But, I am sure that a lucky winner will enjoy his/her prize.

From my understanding speed never killed anyone not even Andy Green and he broke the sound barrier. However, falling over on the bathroom floor certainly can. It's all because of the impact and nothing to do with speed.
