Is there such thing as too much grip?

For these Astras, the answer is yes. With that narrow of a track, relatively skinny tires, stiff suspension and a sort-of high center of gravity, you had to see this coming.
Those Duke boys seem to influence the whole world I tell you!!!

Vintage Isle of Man, Vintage M3

"...A breathtaking display of forceful driving..." (.32)
I'd have to agree with that. After the Higgins clip, how's this to show you "how it's done" at the Isle of Man.

Nice Save!

Mark Higgins knows how to handle a loose Subie. Recovering from a maxed-out suspension-unload induced loss of adhesion at 150+ MPH on the Bray Hill section of the 2011 Isle of Man TT qucickly earns you hero status in our book. Gold star to his passenger, who barely blinked during the whole steering wheel shuffle.
To quote at .55 - "...and the biggest moment of my life there.."

A plethora of pure sound...

15 minutes of hillclimb sound porn.
I dare you to crank the volume for the whole clip. Triple-dog-dare you.
Can you spot and ID the Audi? Comment!!!

Pure Sound Smorgasbord

AWD, FWD, RWD... charged or NA... motor sound, exhaust note or drivetrain wail.
There's something for everyone in this clip!
Enjoy, and don't forget to turn the volume UP!!!

Epic Cars and Epic Sounds

Vintage race cars. No music. Just ridiculous exhaust notes.
'Nuff said.



1/10th the size, same amount of fun...

I think everyone at some point or another (or maybe currently) have had radio controlled cars. I just don't remember them looking this good. Maybe it's because we never raced them at night. It probably was the lack of Rockstar energy drinks...


Porsche GT3 Action and Sound

Everyone knows that if it doesn't SOUND fast, it's no fun to watch. Using that logic, this will be the most fun 9 minutes you are about to experience. Air-cooled or water-cooled, why is it that all 911's always sound so good?
Turn the volume UP!!!
