Thanks to the rather intelligent folks at Audi, the Lamborghini Gallardo is a car that drives as wonderfully as it looks. Yes, I personally prefer the rear-wheel-drive variety, but the all-wheel-drive Gallardo is rather special as well. In fact, having all four wheels put power to the ground allows you to take this Lamborghini to…

Proper throttle application can make a major difference when on a race track. Mash it coming out of a corner, and you’re likely to be slower than the guy or gal using smooth and progressive technique with the go pedal. This doesn’t just apply to racing though, as proper throttle modulation can make for a…

I know that not every cop is a bad cop, and I don’t have a negative attitude towards the police what so ever. When I got my mega speeding ticket a few years back, the police officer was exceedingly polite and even asked me about the car I was driving (“How’s it handle?!” “Great.. until…

Remember the Hooniverse Podcast? That lovely venture into the vivid world of voice work was led by our friend Alex Kierstein. Mr. Han Solex himself has since moved on to a writing gig at Road & Track (my, aren’t you fancy) and the Hooniverse Podcast died when he left. Now, however, it’s making a triumphant…

There are people out there who build hot rods, and then there are people who build hot rods. Ernie Adams is one of those people who builds hot rods. This Mercury looks like an ordinary hot rod until you realize that it’s miniature. It’s actually an 11/16th scale replica of the original…and it’s brilliant. Click…

I like alcohol. No, this isn’t going to be that type of post (not yet anyway…) I enjoy trying new beers and a new bar can bring about new friends. Where is “the best bar” is a question that would seemingly have hundreds or thousands of answers. In a new film, one man sets out…
