I have to admit that when I saw John Toca start talking about the car’s audio system, and then transition to how the Recaro racing seats will have harnesses, I wasn’t all that impressed. But that’s personal bias—I just don’t care about car stereos. And generally need harnesses don’t need stereos. In all fairness though, […] More »
Pikes Peak. It’s one of the most dangerous, challenging, and famous hill climbs in the world. It’s over 4,700ft of hair pins and sheer drops. If that sounds like fun to you, then you’re probably going to want to watch this video. Sparco racing brought out their Rally xD while Greddy and Scion brought their […] More »

So as you can imagine, there were some pretty crazy concepts in Vegas last year. My favorite was probably the iQ-MR by Tatsu. There weren’t any performance specs listed, but with the […] More »
The FR-S has been out for nearly six-months, and there’s already a wide-body kit out for it. That has to be some kind of record. There’s a good chance that you’ve seen this kit already, as it’s easily the most aggressive kit for the FR-S out right now. Flared rear fenders. External bolts. Distinctive side skirts In a way… […] More »
