This Formula .1 battle is between a Ford GT in Gulf livery with no help from boosters or shove against a Sector 9 longboard that was gravity fed only. No kicks or pushes. We shot outside of Newport Elementary at 7:00am on a Monday. By the time the track was set up it was about […]

There is Always Someone Having a Worse Day Than You
A day of honing virtually worthless skills in the pursuit of unachievable perfection, or at least to be half as good as you are at Forza. Track days are the best kinds of days. A day of free will expressions of speed and wasteful spending. A day of honing virtually worthless skills in the pursuit […]
Hoonigan Fights for a Final in one of the Best Races Ever
9 Rallycross is some of the best racing out there. Nothing proves that more than the 2016 round two semifinal, which may be one of the best races ever seen (Starting at 1:22:40). Ken Block and his Focus RS are trying to push from the back to see if they can make it to their […]
ACR Viper Record Lap of Laguna Seca
7 That is like selling Iron man suits to the general public. This is a seemingly simple video, but the content is pretty amazing to watch. The ACR Viper is a street legal car that touches 2.0 lateral G’s on this lap. That is like selling Iron man suits to the general public. Just massive […]
Porsche 918 Races a Lamborghini Huracan
3 This is one of the saddest videos I’ve ever seen. Don’t worry, no one wrecks or blows up. Really no one does anything at all. Just two well off guys sitting in chairs trying to stroke their ego. Sure, it is fun to see and hear these crazy machines perform but the matchup was […]
928 VS Z28 Motorweek Track Battle (1983)
8 There were a lot of wars being fought in 1983 cinema. The Empire vs the Rebel alliance, Tom Cruise vs pants, Scarface vs…people who didn’t say hello to his little friend. A lot was happening so it is understandable that some have forgotten about this unique battle. What made the comparison of the 928 […]
Three Hundred and Fifty Six Insights Into My Soul
2 Sit in wonder as we are invited into the seemingly solitary life of Matt, a vintage car/parts enthusiast. The crown jewel of his rustic collection is a Porsche 356 which is the Banjo to his Kazooie. Any adventure Matt decides to go on, the 356 is ready. Climbing mountains, off-roading, LA traffic the little […]
1991 Jeremy Clarkson Tests a Herd of Raging Bulls
3 In 1990 the Countach passed the torch of supercar lunacy to the Diablo. Top Gear thought the best way to cover this occasion was to revisit all the mid-ship V12 Lamborghini’s of the past. Their goal was to show the progression of design and technology. What they actually did was show how much prettier […]
Geometry > Rally Drivers
9 This is what happens when you don’t get your rally stage designer a Christmas present. You might be thinking “well that seems a little obtuse”. All these rugged, purpose built rally cars crashing into a hill is actually acute thing to watch :)))) …. anybody? This particular corner flummoxes all these drivers because it […]
Karma Crash
9 City traffic sucks. Dealing with thousands of people on the same road is stressful enough but then sprinkle in idiots like the Lexus IS300 in this video and things just get much worse. It is very important to never be this guy, especially if you own an enthusiast car. Every stupid decision you make […]
Middle Age Mutant Ninja Mouse
1 Bigger is better, gluttony is glorious, no replacement for displacement, Dwayne The Rock Johnson is a good actor. All these misconceptions have been shoved through my ear canals to the point where I actually started thinking San Andreas was a good movie. Luckily the internet and some Europeans exist to help offset the large […]
VW Kombi Rally Compilation
7 Seeing something completely out of its element is always fascinating to me. Cats falling into water, people with no rhythm on a dance floor, Jeff in any social situation. While all those examples get chalked up as fails, here is an amazing video compiling Volkswagen Kombi wins. Having spent considerable time behind the wheel […]
Clarkson Wrestles With A RS200 And Loses
9 The Ford RS200 is one of those amazing cars that was bred to dominate, but was never really given the chance. Ford’s European division developed the car over 2 years and entered Group B in 1986 after building 200 road going versions of this unassuming, dirt munching lunatic. As with most inaugural years for […]
Lancia Commercial II “The Life Bringer”
3 The thrilling conclusion to this series puts our hero in a desperate position to undo the reckless damage done by humanity. Here is the catch, he only can use a recycling bin, a polluting combustion engine and a A/C unit. WHAT WILL HARRISON FORD DOOOO?!?!?!?! […]
Harrison Ford Brings You “Lancia: Too Ugly To Notice”
2 You’ll be on the edge of your seat as Harrison Ford captivates your senses in this 60 second thriller with more story and better pacing than “The Crystal Skull”. Watch as our hero runs into a daring situation while out on a drive in a car so ugly and boring no one pays any […]
Young Hammond Compares An Audi Quattro To A Mk VI Evo
0 Sit back and enjoy five and a half minutes of a young Richard Hammond spitting out tiny quips of information in a dizzying display of 90’s-ness. For real, it is literately disorientating. The Cameraman filmed this from the perspective of drugged-up, ADD schnauzer. “Look! A grill! Ooo, a mirror… HAMSTERRRRR!” […]
Can a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Be Classy?
7 With the social media hashtag #drivetastefully, Petrolicious has always been an ambassador for gentlemanly conduct when it comes to classic car culture. But this week’s video features a 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, a sweaty, V8, American muscle car. Beef and beer come to mind at the mention of this car, but Petrolicious shows […]
If you Need a Little Pick-Me-Up
4 It isn’t uncommon for songs to be written about cars. Especially back in the 50s and 60’s where auto manufactures would pay big name bands like, the beach boys, to sing about their products. You’ve probably herd “409” before but now I bring you “59 Volvo”. It was pretty much the “Lamborghini Mercy” of […]
