Between this and the news of AJ Foyt getting mauled by african killer bees for the SECOND time, the news have been pretty weird lately.

It is a charity deal.... the money from every pair of Special Edition McLaren Thongs / Flip Flops is going towards providing homes for Tsunami orphaned Children from the Tsunami.

(The implication is that it is only sales at Melbourne, but I may be wrong there. It also says McLaren have given them the space... )

One thing they are right about is that the halo resembles a pair of thongs!As they love what we are building too as brand and think that our work in terms of building homes deserves to be shown to the World. They are giving us this support so that 100% of the proceeds from a Limited Edition flip flop for the opening race back in Melbourne can go towards helping build more childrens homes. With the new Halo feature providing a safe shelter for drivers and the Gandys foundation providing safe shelter for children.

Your profile pic does look like a pair of thongs on wheels.
