A Bentley convertible. On ice. With a parachute. Sorry, as cool as this could be, it SHOULD be filed under absolutely useless.
MSM Drift Session
Call this what not to do with your student. Call it excellent car control. Call it every Miata should be boosted. What's for sure is the amount of fun these guys were having... even on street tires...
Monticello Motor Club goes rogue...
MMC, one of my favorite tracks, played host to Ryan Tuerck, and what a show it was.
Ski-jumps and drop-tops
Yup, more ice and snow. Makes me think to a better time, when I can again take to the streets with my top down, rpm's up, wind in my hair... why wait?

Coming soon to a dealer near you...
This can either be the end of the world as we know it, or the beginning of mistake-free maintenance? Are gone the days of the skilled technician?

Best "post" of the week...
I've always said, I'd rather be lucky than good.
Glad they're ok, and I wish I could understand what he said at 1:17...
What's the only thing better than pure sound? AGGRESSIVE sound!!!
Sound is a major component of motorsport. Choose your palette, whether it be F1, NASCAR, Grand-Am, or drag racing; the distinctive sound each discipline produces is what makes our insides stir, our passions ignite.
