I realize that first and foremost Jeremy Clarkson is (or was) an entertainer playing to a largely 'Euro' audience. Despite my interest in pretty much all things automotive, Jeremy Clarkson is the reason I stopped watching Top Gear. I always found Clarkson to be abrasive, obnoxious and arrogant. I don't know, there's…

I respect your opinion but you try riding a motorcycle (even at a crawl) and have an automobile literally pin you against a cement wall and see if you feel 'life-threatened.' I'm against lane-splitting by motorcycles but whatever transpired in that encounter I can't believe what the LEO did is accepted police…

I'd be more concerned with the 'painful' looking submarine strap. I'm sure there's method to their madness but its unlike any that I've ever used.

I'm pleased so-called green racing finally has a dedicated venue of its own...Formula E. Maybe now Formula 1 will slow its incessant imposition of needless, gimmicky, green technology into their race cars. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for 'green' technology and the potential benefits it may provide. I don't feel,…

I'm an avid, amateur road racer. I don't condone illegal street racing. While racing in a straight line is not what I'm into I appreciate and admire drag racing. I enjoy watching Street Outlaws and I realize it's a scripted program purely for entertainment. It's obvious the big, Top Ten List races are not being…

IMO lane-splitting is inherently dangerous and presents a needless, elevated level of risk.. Legalizing a needlessly dangerous practice is inherently stupid (which is not surprising considering it's the government). Suppose a car driver opens his door (while stopped in a line of traffic) and a lane-splitting…

"...why I love the Corvette C5/6/7R cars. They sound like a race car thundering around at Le Mans." Exactly, the Corvette Racing cars (as one author put it) are "The Gods of V8 Thunder." I agree, Corvette Racing fields perhaps the best sounding race cars going. Like a Ferrari, their signature sound is unmistakable.…

To each their own but here's my favorite red car....a Magnetic Red Metallic II Corvette C6. I love the color and the car. I have a lot of fun with it.

Bravo Zulu!

Good stuff! Thanks for posting the video. BTW, what-up with the pilot's (patch) insignia? The patches appear to be 'stuck' on top of his permanent, sewn-on insignia.

Both are gorgeous, high performance vehicles. In a comparison such as this I agree, you choose the car you 'like' the best. Personal preferences and the beauty pageant aside, the ultimate measure of a supercar is performance. Many place more emphasis on go rather than show. I note with interest the P1 "...destroyed…

Knowing the U.S. government, that's likely a $184,000 mil-spec dunking booth complete with its own Dash Ten.

Good on General Motors for building some very impressive automobiles....impressive for aesthetics, performance and often for price point as well (as evidenced by the Corvette).

"Is winning Formula One races actually important to Ferrari?" Seriously? Egos are fragile. Winning is everything for Ferrari.

Good stuff! Here's my Grandmother's electric car....going green back in 1916. Who knew?

Storm Chasers?

I'm just spitballin' but sawing the steering wheel/turning the treads side-to-side may have been to generate more heat in the tread and/or to distribute heat across the face of the tread....an attempt to get the front treads smoking equal to the rear treads.

The death of Kevin Ward was a tragic accident. My sympathies are with the victim, his family, friends and with Tony Stewart. IMO releasing the findings of the toxicology report are appropriate....like it or not finding marijuana in Kevin Ward's system is a material factor. In the amateur road racing organizations I…

"The Bugatti Veyron has a bit of a reputation for being a bad investment..." First, everyone knows that a motorcar, especially a daily driver such as a Veyron, is not an "investment." It's a depreciating asset. Second, whether buying a new Ranger Rover for the gardener, a new Jaguar for your PA or the Veyron for your…

With out of control deficit spending and an astronomical, ever-increasing national debt I realize our elected politicians have lost any semblance of fiscal sanity. Sadly, social spending trumps national defense come election time. For the obama regime and Congress to downsize and degrade our military in the face of…
