Morning Symphony: An R33 Nissan Skyline Tearing Around A Mountain Pass
Blame Gran Turismo for my fascination with this car. The Nissan Skyline is the ultimate “forbidden fruit” car from Japan for me, and it’s all due to that damn game. It was the car...
This Seven-Year-Old Can Wheel A Turbocharged RZR Up A Slick Hillclimb Just Fine!
I watch the rock bouncers and hill climbers with admiration. To some, it might appear that the only reason these guys go out and hit some of the most wicked locations in the country is simply to...
Dare To Be Different In The Dirt: Check Out This Mud Dragging Bradley GT!
Between the mid-1960s and the point in the late 1970s when the drugs ran out, there were a ton of kit cars made, most of which seemed adapted to giving the Volkswagen Beetle a look that didn’t...
Dirt Every Day Gets Ambitious: Cummins-Swap A TJ Wrangler, Then Drive It Underwater!
We have to give credit to Fred and crew for creativity…not that driving underwater is a new thing (it isn’t, the military was doing that decades ago) but simply because it’s...
Hot Rod Garage Gives Their Big-Block Plymouth Fury Wagon A Solid Wake-Up…And, Oh Yeah, Some Brakes, Too.
“America is all about speed. Hot, nasty, badass speed.” It might be the punchline to a comedy flick, but let’s face facts: we wouldn’t have a job if there wasn’t a...
Morning Symphony: The Howl Of A Viper GT3-R Tearing Around Monza
It’s almost a relief to know that FCA is going to kill off the Viper instead of softening up the supercar for the tastes of the drivers who complained that the car was too hard-core for them....
Lucky Dog: This Very Lucky Pup’s Narrow Miss With A Rally Mitsubishi Couldn’t Be Any Closer
By all accounts, the little black and white pup you see trotting down the road should have woken up in the clouds, next to the pearly gates. You could tell from the start that even he was aware that...
“Regular” Car? Regular Car Reviews Gets Their Hands On A Might-Be-Faked Knight Industries Two Thousand!
I’m an Eighties kid. Television sets that weighted as much as a good small block, fake wood-paneled interior decor, leftover 1970s shag carpeting, and on and on. My memories prior to 1988 are...
KABOOM! Gratuitous Burnout Engine Carnage, Straight From The Land Down Under!
Engines have limits, especially high compression, boosted mills. They don’t like having the driver stand on the pedal until the tires blow out. They really don’t do well with little to no...
Morning Symphony: Listen To These BMW M3s Rip Up A Tight Drift Course!
For this morning’s aural treat, we are going straight to the sharp howl of the E36 series BMW M3’s 3.2L inline-six. If you want to see what true brand loyalty looks like, ask a BMW fan...
Swedish Military Breadbox: Regular Car Reviews Checks Out A 1975 Volvo C303!
Military passenger vehicles have one real purpose: to move a designated amount of humans and their cargo from one point to another. That’s it. If you are looking for a cushy ride, any options...
It’s Up! It’s Down! It’s Sliding Around! Watch The Beater Bomb Mustang Make One Wild Pass At Thunder Valley!
No prep racing tends to get a bit sketchy. High power cars and low grip tend to mix about as well as oil and water, and we’ve seen some tail-happy trips down the strip that resulted in tons of...
Morning Symphony: Ride Along As The AWD Cutlass Makes A High-Speed Half-Mile Run At Platte Valley!
Brian King and his monster 1984 Hurst/Olds with the neat party trick are at it again! This time the AWD Cutlass was out making half-mile blasts with the Platte Valley Corvette Club in Nebraska,...
Video: 80 Year Old Ex-Drag Racer Jumps Onto Thieves Truck When They Steal His Bike
When we say this one, we had to laugh. Mostly because we know it is the kind of dumb crap we would pull if someone was stealing our stuff. So 80 year old Jerry is minding his own business after...
