Last Call: Casually cool bit of full opposite lock at 140 mph
/

comments
Maybe you’ve gone full lock in your car before. And I bet it was scary. But have you done so at 140 mph near another car and a rapidly approaching wall? IndyLights racer Kyle Kirkwood has, and it looks… “fun”. Big snap from Race 1 lap 2. I had to send it early if I…

Last Call: A Miata on a Gravel Road is a Glorious Thing

comments
What’s your favorite type of road? One of mine is a nicely graded stretch of gravel. You don’t need to be going flat out to enjoy your vehicle as the limits come way down, while the fun goes way up. Here are two perfect examples of this idea. In each photo you’ll see a Mazda…

comments
I spotted this great sticker on one of the Dick Johnson Racing Ford Mustang Supercars during the weekend’s coverage of racing from Hidden Valley in Australia. It gave me a good laugh and also got me thinking; what’s the best sticker you have ever seen on a car, truck, or race car? Last Call indicates…

Max Verstappen had an unfortunate end to his Azerbaijan GP. He suffered a tire blowout with just 5 laps remaining in the race. As he climbed from the car, Verstappen gave his tire a kick in frustration. And now the Internet responds with a video showing Max doling out kick-based punishment to others. Enjoy. Last…

Carfection just completed a three-part test of some of the most amazing machines ever built. Henry Catchpole hopped behind the wheel of a McLaren F1, Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR, and a Porsche 911 GT1. His conclusion, at the end of the test, is that if he had to pick one to stare at it would…

When I saw this guy on the Interstate, all I could think was that life had probably not been very gentile with him lately. The downpour probably just felt like an unnecessary insult. DISCLAIMER: My wife was driving. I took this photo through the windshield from the passenger seat.

Last Call: Jeep Abilities Edition

comments
When marketing and selling a new vehicle, it is best to show the potential customer what its abilities are. Pictured here is local Jeep dealer displaying its new V8-powerd Wrangler Rubicon 392. This monster, that comes with 33-inch tires and a suspension that two inches higher than the typical Wrangler Rubicon, has abilities that few…

Last Call: A bit too much of that Dyno MIGHT!

comments
Someone commented on the below video that at least the vehicle is already on a trailer. And that’s both hilarious… and sad. Watch this Charger Hellcat go kablammo on the old dyno. Last Call indicates the end of Hooniverse’s broadcast day. It’s meant to be an open forum for anyone and anything. Thread jacking is not…

Last Call: So I’ve done a thing… Vol.5

I’ve been looking at every listing near me for months now. Time tricks the brain into action. And that’s what happened yesterday. There was a lovely old XJ I saw for sale finished in brilliant British Racing Green. I emailed the seller, refreshed the ad, and to my dismay the listing was no longer there.…

My buddy Kenny (who you may remember from the NSX video and article) loves to track his 911 Turbo. He has been out early and often with the Porsche Club of America (PCA) – Potomac Region. During a recent outing at Summit Point Motorsports Park, he had a unique experience. The braking and cornering G’s…
