Ford's Shelby GT350 Mustang throws a left hook at the BMW M4 – will it land the punch or miss the mark when it launches in 2015?
Keeping with other manufacturers' theme of celebratory headwear , the Toyota World Endurance Championship team broke out some sweet hachimaki to commemorate their 2014 LMP1 Manufacturer's Championship win.
A massive crash took Mark Webber in the number 20 Porsche out of the race in the last hour of the World Endurance Championship's 6 Hours of São Paulo. The Porsche 919 collided with Matteo Cressoni in the number 90 Ferrari 458 of 8 Star Motorsports, then hit the wall.
The Global Hawk vs Dragon Lady debate never ends in Washington. Each aircraft has its own positive and negative qualities and keeping both would be ideal. The problem is that sequestration makes ideal no longer an fiscal option. As a result, Lockheed is now coming to the table with an offer that may be a decade or two over due- to produce a optionally manned Dragon Lady.

Olivier Pla of G-Drive Racing isn't having a great day in his World Endurance Championship prototype racer. He missed a braking point at the 6 Hours of São Paulo and whacked into one of Interlagos' barriers at speed. The resulting smash looks more like an exploding piñata than a race car.
It needs to be done right, but you know whoever buys this is just going to stance it. $3,000 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Cor...
Australia's Angriest Ram is back, and this time some fool thinks they can drive up the ram's road without his curly-horned permission. No gonna happen, friend. Ba-Ba-Back it up!
Photographer Ken Ishii visited the 2014 Tokyo Classic Car Festival near the very famous Meiji Shrine (which is next to the fashion area of Harajuku). His shots are amazing and well worth the potential load times. Personally, I like the yellow BMW Isetta the best.
Take prominent race car driver. Disguise as an everyday user of vehicles, if not a bit of a rube. Put in car. Put "unknowing" passengers in car. Terrify passengers. We've seen this before , haven't we?
One of my favorite videos ever made featuring a car, is actually from a snowboarding movie. DC Mtn Lab 1.5 features a part with Ken Block taking his Rally America prepped STi through New Zealand's Snow Park ski resort. In it he hits kickers, kicks up some rooster tails, and comes dangerously close to wiping out half of DC's snowboarding team. It's a pre-Gymkhana Block demonstrating what it takes to become one of the internet and the world's most popular (And some would argue overrated.) motorsports icons. Featured here is a behind-the-scenes video of how it all came together and the complexities of filming a rally car in a park full of snowboarders.
Corners at the Monza Rally Show are pretty ridiculously tight. Valentino Rossi and the other top drivers seem to come within inches, and certainly are within feet, of striking the barrel barriers they careen around. Which makes Rossi's overtake during a corner completely insane.
The Chevrolet SS (that's for Sport Sedan, don't get it confused with something else like a Camaro) could be a real seller for General Motors... If only they weren't so inept at actually telling us why we want to buy one. Reader Logansteno, somehow still a GM fan, tells it like it is.
China has some of the most brutal rallies in existence, and it's not hard to see why. A lot of it has to do with the rough roads they run on. Here's a constantly twisty road that straddles drop-offs on both sides. Consequences for turning the wrong way are pretty high.
Famed Lamborghini race shop Reiter Engineering has made a GT3 racer that looks as mean as it sounds. Think Lamborghini has gotten too soft and Audi-like? This is the race car for you.
Cutting corners is a way of life for many shady elements in the car community. For them, if it looks the part, it's ready to sell off to an unsuspecting victim customer. Here's one way that professional scam artists create new-looking tires from worn out tires.

Did I hear that someone is looking to buy a car? Yes?
A couple weeks ago, I lost the keys to my beloved motorcycle. After taking the quandary to Kinja almost 300 folks chimed in having faced the same struggle. The solidarity was as great as the range of responses. If you're almost ready to give up hope looking for your keys, check these weird spots.
