As Vincent Vega says, you just don’t fuck with another man’s automobile. Once upon a long time ago, Mike Gomez had a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach I with a Cobra Jet 4 Speed. He sold the car to buy his first house, and 30 years later picked up another ’69 with the intention of restoring [...]
Alright, so I know you’ve probably had more Fiesta than any one human should be submitted to, but good Rhys Millen has dropped a video of his record-breaking two wheel-drive Pikes Peak run on the interwebs. The flick is dripping with cinematic ooo-gooeyness, complete with sunrise sideways action. The question is, how does it stack [...]
The fiends at McLaren-Mercedes have rolled out some footage of the super sweet SLR Stirling Moss ripping it up on a test track. The $1 million roadster is powered by 650 horsepower, supercharged V8 – good enough to dart to 60 in 3.5 seconds on its way to a 217 mph top speed. Did we [...]

The more vehicles I drive, the more I realize our domestic manufacturers are great at building cars and trucks people want, but not so hot at cranking out the ones we need. Take a look at any of the neo muscle bruisers out there right now to get the gist of my meaning. The 430 [...]
Last time we heard anything even moderately Fiendish from comedian and car nut Adam Carolla, Top Gear America was getting canned. Carolla’s pretty damn funny, and the guy knows his stuff when it comes to all things automotive, so we’re glad to hear the guy’s cranking out a Podcast dedicated to all things car. Called [...]
Now here’s a juicy tid bit for you Bimmerphiles amongst us. Word ‘round the Web is ze Germans are thinking about plopping an oil burner behind the headlights of the next M3. Before you go and get your lederhosen in a twist, just think of the possibility. Die hard fans of the mighty M cried [...]
While Marcus Gronholm’s Olsbergs MSE team mate, Andreas Eriksson cut his Pikes Peak attempt short just a couple of miles in, the World Rally Master Champion did complete the course even though a blown turbo just 500 feet shy of the finish scuppered any chance of a win.
