Low & Wide OBS Silverado – on a Craftsman Truck Series chassis

Curious creativity. Or as the kids call it: FAFO. That’s what the hotrod spirit is REALLY all about. It’s not about conformity, fitting in, or following an influencer. Rather - it’s about handing over the keys to that curious/devious voice inside your head. And making...

Celica GT-Four – Enthusiasts Make Enthusiasts

The Celica GT-Four is a cool car, no doubt. But for John Mamone, it’s honestly not about the car. It’s about the friendships. Interesting cars are just the common thread here… the glue. Yeah-yeah I know that sounds cliché. But when you break it down, it’s everything. ...

Will Lockwood’s S14.5 240SX – gaining STATURE

What are we chasing man? Let's call it out. In today’s culture, I think a lot of us are chasing attention, adoration, clout, power, followers, envy, dollars, etc. But on a deeper level, to be more specific & fair, I think what we’re really chasing is relevance....

Genesis GV60 review – politics aside

If you don’t like electric vehicles, you should drive the Genesis GV60. Because here’s the thing: I don’t like EVs either. At least I was pretty convinced I didn’t. But the driving experience of the Genesis GV60 is good enough to make me realize, it’s actually not the...

Toyota is earning their fanbase the old-fashion way

For a lot of us, car purchases are emotionally driven. Buying a vehicle is more than just 'buying a vehicle', it’s a show of support for the brand. Throughout my life, I've formed strong emotional connections with several brands for several different reasons. And...

Sub 1:40 – The Benchmark of Time Attack

A few years ago, in a Facebook Group called Track Midwest, a post was written that echoed loudly around the community. "If you don't run sub 1:40, you shouldn't post." It was somewhat harsh, but it had some validity. It was supposed to be directed at the newer guys...
