“Win on Sunday, sell on Monday!” - is the only reason why Porsche is going such great lenghts to race their cars in every racing category imaginable. So if Porsche is going to build mid-engined 911s for the track, they will definitely build them for the road, too - and soon: I think that the actual generation of…

On this very point of the Nürburgring Nordschleife, there’s a bump right in the middle of the bend leading from the Foxhole to the Adenauer Forst. Thus, you have to brake and downshift before this bend MUCH HARDER than you had to do, if that was a flat bend only. It seems thet the driver of the One:1 simply forgot…

I am sorry to say this, but in my opinion, Chris Evans is an alcoholic. While I had to grow up under an alcoholic father, I know an alcoholic when I see one today - and even more so, when I see how Chris Evans uses to behave towards other people. So there.

Well, 20 years ago I was ridiculed by a then-famous german helmet maker when I suggested to him to give his helmets decent aerodynamics, winglets and airflow splitters to reduce the rumble of wind turbulence to reduce noise, reduce drag and increase their helmets’ stability in high-speed air flow, instead of always…

The Oslo city council will change course on this a full 180 degrees as soon as the first 10.000 Osloan car owners have sued the city for compensation and damages. The only ones who will wildly applaud to this ham-fisted approach will be the lawyers.

That’s exactly what Porsche and Mercedes-Benz do in a BIG way (with a capital “big”) in Germany. You can even buy almost all parts for your classic Porsche or Merc NEW from the companies, for a perfect restoration - or simply, to keep it on the road with original spare parts. BMW and Audi, not so much. VW - not at…

...”finnish”, you certainly mean, no?

Doug, you wrote - quote: “The first time it broke was February 20, 2013, before I ever started writing about cars, when I took it to the dealer for an oil change and they discovered the radiator was leaking and my lower control arms were worn. (...) After a mere 90 days of Range Rover ownership, CarMax paid out…

Omygod - how ungodly ugly is THIS truck? What IS this - a horizontal permutation of the Edsel? What were Ford’s designers thinking, when they designed THIS caricature of a truck front?

The tuning parts mounted on/in this bike are worth over 1000 dollars already. Take another 1000 and buy some lighter wheels (the early cast rims from Yamaha were heavy as lead), a twin disc front brake, sports rear shocks and, maybe, a stiffer fork, and you’ll have a reall head-turner in the thumper-scene. NP.

JimZ, in case the thread is damaged on a lug bolt, just replace the bolt and you’re done. Try this with wheel studs, instead... Such damage on the thread occured quite often in those days, when pressed steel rims were the norm, because Germans use to change from summer to snow tires and back every year. (You know,…

You always blink where you intend to go/stay, when you see a faster car closing up on you in the mirrors - preferably to/on the right side on the track. In a slower car, or if you are less experienced than other drivers, you will look into the mirrors way more often than you will look ahead, which might get quite…

And a few more recent “Touristenfahrten” from 2015. Enjoy - but better don’t get too close...

Only if you want to kill yourself. It’s an overpowered toy with really mean manners. You better use a decent car ,instead.

Oh, no big deal, really?

What would Mr. Spock say to this? He’d say:

Hi, there. I am from Adenau at the Nurburgring. My dad was born there, 100 Meters from the Breitscheid-bridge. My grand uncle was a motorcycle racer on the Ring, my dad worked as a track marshall there, and I grew up watching races on the Ring, saw Giacomo Agostini chasing down the foxhole on his howling MV Agusta,…

On Tesla losing money on every car they sell: I don’t really see why they should. I mean, a car costing 60.000 Dollars while it’s in short supply could easily be priced at 70.000 Dollars and STILL sell like hot cakes. So what gives? It’s not like Tesla would compete against Volkswagen price-wise. Their competitors are…

If you want a truly modular classic car hybrid concept, just mount in-wheel motors to the rear wheels, add some wires to the steering wheel and back and throw your accu-pac in the trunk. To engage the electric engines in the wheels, add a button on the steering wheel, which you press to power the electric motors, just…
