Upcomming, COBB tuning GT-R vs. 997 GT-Street Porsche

Just a little teaser video of the next episode of Head to Head.  To be honest I thought they would hold this for the finale, since these were the big guns, but I have to say I can’t wait to watch the full episode (even though I know how it went down).

Guess My car will be in a few more weeks….sigh… patience…

Attention to my readers…both of you….

Just checked my analytics and it looks like I have at least two people checking my blog every day…very impressive, but wow, you must be tapped out if my ramblings are a regular hang out for you…..anyhow. I’m in Atlanta this week celebrating the In-Laws 50th Wedding Anniversary, so I will return to a regular blogging schedule on Tuesday when I’m back in LA. I will try to post a few as I get a chance. That said, thanks for checking my site, please post a comment so I know who you are, otherwise I’ll assume you’re just a search bot hitting my site every day.

Video of a Typical Camaro Rear End

I’ve owned enough F-Bodies to know that the rear end is the weak link….but this is not how they normally break.

Sadly I am this jerk, Audi slams German Luxury

I get that Audi is trying to make a viral video slamming other stereotypes, but it really comes across as the Audi stereotype is being a gossipy two face… Are they acurate?  Well…..I hate to say I’m totally that jerk off in the BMW yapping on the blue tooth. Nailed me there Audi 😉

The Crazy French show us how it’s done, Photo

You want 118mpg?  Get something with two wheels.  Want to stay out of the rain and not have to put a foot down when you come to the stop?  Check out this lane splitter from the congested streets of Paris.

While us Americans think that high gas prices and traffic are some new American invention, the Europeans have been dealing with this as a matter of course for the last few decades.  Their pumped is already primed with out of the box thinking that I guarantee is more fun to drive than a Prius.

Follow the link below to one of my favorite blogs for all things with less than two wheels, to see more photos and details.
