Dreaming about cars Adamo Vitale 9yrs old




I wish I could design cars like the Koenigsegg. (top pic) He dreamt of doing cars when he was 5, after seeing a movie about cars. Now he has a factory in an aircraft hangar and they race the cars down the strip, that must be so lekker!!!! Even Arnold Swartzeneger likes these cars, he checked it out at the Geneva motorshow this weekend.

Here in South Africa Barnard from Bloemfontein has also just finished the Barnard supercar. (bottom pic)

Soccer World Cup in South Africa - Adamo Vitale, 9 yrs old

I can't believe it's 2009, because next year is the 2010 Soccer World Cup in South Africa. I'm so glad that other teams from overseas are coming to play here in SA. My favourites are Brazil, Italy and Portugal.

The World Cup is so important that they are building a train - the Gautrain, and widening the roads and building new stadiums here in South Africa.

I don't know if I'll go to any of the matches but I'll watch them on tv!!

First for South Africa in Dakar rally - Adamo Vitale (9 yrs old)


This is the first time South Africa came first in the Dakar rally. In 31 years in a VW Touareg. Giniel de Villiers said on radio that it was the best audience participation in South America with 1 million people at the start. He raced go-karts when he was four against tractors on a farm.

Today is also the day America's first black president is inaugurated. I like Barack Obama.

Ronaldo crashes Ferrari - Adamo Vitale (9 yrs old)



I heard last night (Thursday) that Christiano Ronaldo wrote off his Ferrari. At least he's okay to play on Sunday which is a miracle. But have you seen how they make those cars? Each engine is individually molded and cast and all parts are handmade. I like the UEFA Champions League and watching it on tv but my mom and dad tell me to go to bed as it is on at 9pm in South Africa.
