CAR SPOTLIGHT>> RB26-POWERED SKYLINE 4-DOOR

Nothing is as it seems in Japan. You can never dismiss a car with a simple glance, especially one with its hood closed. Track and drift events are the best places to get an idea of some of the cool engine modifications and swaps that the Japanese love to do, and it was precisely in [...]

EVENT>> MSC CHALLENGE HONJO – PT3

MSC in Honjo was the just the kind of exposure to drifting that I was after, a kind of welcome-back-to-Japan event following the time I spent down in Sydney earlier this month. I'm always so much more comfortable at laid back competitions like this, giving me time to walk the pits and take in all [...]

DISCUSSION>> WHAT ARE TOMORROW’S CLASSICS?

To most people, car's aren't a good investment. They're a depreciating asset that lose money the moment you drive it out of the showroom. And while this has certainly been true in our age of mass produced vehicles, there are always exceptions to the rule. There are cars that become so desirable, so valuable, that they fetch [...]

GALLERY>> MCLAREN ON THE STREETS OF MANCHESTER

The past few days have been great for the city of Manchester. Man City beat Tottenham 5-1, while United pummeled the Gunners 8-2. But for car enthusaists in Manchester, the Bank Holiday will be remembered for a different reason: the sound of Jenson Button's McLaren F1 screaming through the heart of the city. Straight after taking [...]
