/

comments
First things first, the answer cannot be The Wombat because that’s my answer. But there are tons of other great projects in the works, so what are some you’d like to see completed? I’d raise a hand for the Stanceworks Honda-swapped Ferrari 308 and Stephan Papadakis’ adventure-prepped Toyota RAV4. I know there are tons more…

Hooniverse Asks: What would you like to see race at Pike’s Peak?

comments
JR Hildebrand wanted to run a Dallara IndyCar up Pike’s Peak in 2021. Those plans got pushed back and he’s set to line up with the open-wheel machine for the 2022 event. It should be a wicked run up the hill with the skilled pilot behind the wheel. It got me thinking about all the…

My 1991 Mitsubishi Montero is set for some fun upgrades. I recently installed a new Gamiviti roof rack, so I can eventually add an awning.

Watch Carfection review a Jaguar XJR-15… in the rain!
/
/
comments
This is a car that should properly terrify you, I’d imagine. On a dry day, a Jaguar XJR-15 would likely prove to be a handful. So I believe Henry Catchpole is doing a good job of hiding the true level of nervousness as he pilots this particular example around a very wet racing circuit. Especially,…

Want to help clean up public trails? OnX has ideas to help you get started
/

comments
You would think that anyone who looks hitting their local trails would also like to keep those trails clean. That’s not always the case though, and seeing garbage on a trail is a sadly familiar sight. But there are plenty of groups out there that push the idea and action of trail clean-ups. Maybe you…
