    Watching a wealthy actor attempt to be a race car driver is typically pretty boring stuff. There are exceptions, of course. Patrick Dempsey can wheel. Paul Newman was a hero in a car. Adam Carolla typically pushes his own fleet of vintage race cars pretty hard. Gene Hackman ran at the 24 Hours of Daytona,…

    Do you remember that awesome Ford Lightning tribute truck that our own Greg Kachadurian drove a few years back? Pioneer Ford created that. Well, they’ve reached back out because they have some 2021 models all built up and ready to roll. These get a unique suspension, a sweet wheel and tire setup, and a Roush…

    It’s rare that a new car excites me these days, but the GR Corolla has done that in a big way. This feels like a rally-ready homologation special, and I love it. It helps that I’m driving the Morizo Edition too, which gets more aggressive gearing, drops some weight, and feels ready for anything.

Now, it’s a tube-chassis car with carbon-fiber skin, active aero, long-travel suspension, and quite a bit more horsepower. The Boxer under…

    Super73 and Roland Sands Design teamed up to collaborate on an RX-Malibu, and the result is pretty sweet. This RSD-themed bike isn’t just upgraded in the looks department, as the battery has been relocated, the pedals and chain upgraded, and the rear shock swapped out for a better Fox unit.

    The 2022 Audi RS3 absolutely rips. That 401-hp 5-cylinder engine sounds amazing, the interior is comfortable, and the Torque Rear drive mode rips you around corners.
