Where is that? And sweet in a slow way. I would rock it. Though I wish it was an S cause it would be faster.

"County of Allegheny" brings Pittsburgh PA to mind.

That R53 may not need to be so fast, looking at the cannon muzzle mounted below its front plate.

That probably isn't sand, but rather concrete. Anyway, here's a link to an old forum post regarding the Allegheny County (PA) MINI Cooper: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...76-post28.html

Ooopps I thought that both the pictures were from the same part of the country which is pretty unlikely. But yes bottom one is concrete top is scrub and hills which is kinda of like the midwest like Montana, Wyoming, and such areas like that or maybe even the southwest.
