Four Carbs, Four Doors, Four on the Floor ... Corvair Monza 140 is GO!

Sedans are funny creatures. Some sedans make this hoon swoon … a mid-sixties Continental with the right paintwork would make me hop in the back with Morpheus any day. Domestic sedans got tricky once the fuselage styling thing got going (1974 Dodge Monaco, anyone?), but apparently GM’s abacus-wielding stylists didn’t muck up the second generation [...]

True to almost every aspect of the traditional T-Bucket style.

FreeRace Combines Demo Derby, Spec Racing, Autocross and Drifting into One Delicious Stew

Whoa. Why didn’t we think of this? Basically, the folks behind FreeRace take over a parking lot, set up a nice, wide autocross-ish course with barrels and barriers and let loose a few hoons in matching 370Zs.

The new DMC: Sorcery of a Different Sort

Quick!  If I say “DMC”, you say “12″, right?   It’s forever been that way since we met those bad, bad, VW-driving Libyans and learned how to defeat them.

Well, after viewing the following video, the acronym “DMC” is going to have to fight more than Libyans for it to solely mean “DeLorean Motor Company”.   Apparently there’s [...]
