comments
You know what people used to say? “Close enough for government work” that’s what. That of course was back when the government actually, you know, worked. These days we have so many options in our daily lives that having to put up with something with even a single major flaw can be a deal breaker.…

Did you know that the term pony car almost came to describe the class of two-seater mid-engine sports cars?

Last Call: Tied Down Edition

comments
The racer ethic has always been that form follows function and that anything that can reduce weight or speed an action should be employed. I agree with that mantra, and I also liked rummaging through the externally latched boot on this guy’s Porsche (not really.) Last Call indicates the end of Hooniverse’s broadcast day. It’s…
