Ford offers free performance driving school to GT350 & GT350R buyers

Ford offers free performance driving school to GT350 & GT350R buyers

The new Shelby GT350 is quite possibly the most potent Mustang ever to hit showroom floors and its track ready sibling the GT350R kicks the performance up even further. In other words, these are really serious performance cars, capable of gobbling up pavement faster than anything that most buyers have ever driven before. The cars […]

Take a lap of Sebring while watching the pedal dance

Years ago, even before I got my driver’s license, I taught myself how to perfect heel & toe downshifting, by watching in car footage of rally legend Walter Rohrl dancing on the pedals of a mighty Audi S1 Quattro Group B car. To this day, pedal cams are mesmerizing. Watching a skilled driver’s fancy footwork […]

This is what happens when a tire blows on a dyno

This is what happens when a tire blows on a dyno

  To any remotely safety aware person, a dyno is a terrifying device. This about it: you strap in a 3,000 or so pound machine that is capable to propelling itself to life threatening speeds and then push it to do just that, without moving an inch. The act of running a car on a […]

Matt Farah drives the GT350 at Lime Rock

Working in automotive media, we get to do some crazy cool things, but sometimes they are just crazy, like the time I flew to Gothenberg, Sweden from Toronto to go for a ride in a self driving Volvo and spent under 22 hours in the country. Our friend Matt Farah from The Smoking Tire just […]

One lap of Sebring with Joey McColm in the CBRT Mustang

While the Trans-Am series has had its share of bumps in the road, it is the series that most lives up to its name, in that it has been North America’s big bore mainstay since its inception in 1966. Forget for the moment that there is no Canadian date this year – that appears to […]

Watch Ken Block shred the Hoonicorn before it had a full body

Lord Tunderin’ Jeebers! Kenny from the Block had one crack at testing the Hoonicorn before turning it loose. That test might just be the coolest automotive outing of all time! No doors. No front clip. I just wet myself.
