    Jim Clark's Lotus crashed at Monaco

    Unfortunate and avoidable from the details in the story. All the more reason to check spinners and wheel nuts twice before heading out. NOOOOO! Jim Clark's Lotus 49 Crashed At Monaco Historic Grand Prix

    Vintage Austin Healey F Prod at COTA

    This was a really fun day. Took my "new" Vintage F Production Sprite to a track day at COTA and buzzed around a few Porsches. They pulled me on the long straights but this little go-kart handles like an absolute dream. My data logger was consistently reading 1.15-1.25 Gs in the corners on 5"...

    New Engine/Intake for the Lola

    The new GM Performance ZZ383 long block I installed ripped a set of rings in the first 500 miles. GM has a 2 year warranty on their crate engines and made good, shipping me a new engine and paying for 20 hrs of labor support for the reinstall. I decided to upgrade the cam, heads and intake...
