Yet it’s revered as one of the best tracks in North America and seen as a colossal test of physical fortitude by every professional driver that has raced around it. Ironically, Lime Rock’s unassuming numbers are exactly what earned it the nickname the “Bull Ring” — the tight confines lay the groundwork for constant wheel-to-wheel […]
That’s made evident in this dashcam video of a forceful rollover crash suffered by a team in their Skoda 130LR during the 2016 Podbrdská Rally Legend in the Czech republic. Rallying, even at the amateur level, carries a risk of crashing that simply isn’t there in other forms of weekend racing. Thankfully, nobody was hurt in […]
That’s why noted car guy and Caterham owner John Krafcik, CEO of Google’s autonomous car project, gets up and goes to work every morning. But in its latest update, Google announces that its twee koala-mobiles now do the single most annoying thing your fellow drivers engage in every day: horn-honking. Google’s self-driving cars are meant […]
Well, uh, I hope you weren’t too beholden to the styling of the car we saw on stage at the unveiling, because it sounds like it could still change, perhaps in a major way. Did you fall in love with the Tesla Model 3 that was revealed at the beginning of April? Perhaps you were one […]

Located at 450 Main Street, not far from previous Hartford street scenes in this series, it’s served as a federal courthouse since 1963, though thee photos obviously date to a few years after that. Give these photos a good once over and tell us what you see here? In among the Hartford photos that Joe […]
One that’s reliable, no doubt, and easy to fix if anything does break. One with enough power to get you over the hills with no wasted time. Perhaps most important, one that keeps you entertained, and gives you the widest possible enjoyment of all of that beautiful scenery rushing past the windshield. When you’re hundreds […]
At the annual Mecum Spring Auction held in Indianapolis each May, you can find many beautiful examples of your favorite classic cars for sale. You can find the car you grew up with, the car your dad had, and the car you never should have sold. You can also find vehicles that you never even […]
