The first round of the 2010 British Touring car Championship took place earlier this month at Thurxton race circuit in Hampshire. As suggested in our preview, 2008 BTCC Champion, Fabrizio Giovanardi was finally confirmed as the 2nd driver for the, now non-works, Triple Eight Entry with a new all black livery and sponsorship from Uniq and WD-40. With
Let's start with part two of my coverage of the Streetpower event at Zandvoort. I couldn't resist starting with the Bonder E36 by DBM Engineering. It certainly is one of the most extreme BMW's I have seen in a while. It even managed to set the second fastest time of the day with 1:50.063. Here's another car built and maintained by the
Now to wrap up my coverage from the 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show. While there were a few big cars debuted at this year's show, it also marked the American debut of cars shown earlier at other international auto shows. One of these was the Mini Coupe Concept, which looks amazing in the flesh. Displayed alongside the Mini Coupe, was the equally sexy
I'm back home in LA now after a long road trip, watching dark rain clouds fill the sky. Rain in Southern California? Does such a thing exist? Anyways, we have a busy week ahead of us as we gear up for the Formula D finale in Irwindale, but before that we have more action from the Monterey Sports Car Championships at Laguna Seca. If you had the chance

My body is massively sore from hiking around Laguna Seca's scenic hills today, but before I collapse I wanted to post a few quick photos and highlights from the day's practice and qualifying sessions. At
We've covered the hidden gem that is the Caribbean motorsports scene a couple times here on Speedhunters, and each time we're even more impressed with the crazy machines people are running down there. This latest batch of photos was shot by Jason Joaquin at the second round of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championship held on August 30th at Bushy
It has been a while, with a long summer break, but the British Touring Car Championship returned to the track last weekend at Snetterton, in Norfolk. Current Champion Fabrizio Giovanardi and Colin Turkington shared the top spot of the podium during the three race event. Turkington was a little fortunate to take the final race win of the day after original
BMW continued their winning streak at the last round of the World Touring Car Championship in Brno last weekend. Alessandro Zanardi won the first race of the weekend after starting from third on the grid. The ex IndyCar champion was helped to the win by one of the strangest maneuvers I’ve seen on a track in a long time. Augusto Farfus led from
Valencia, Spain played host to rounds 9 and 10 of the World Touring Car Championship. Following the farce at Pau last month, the series has regrouped and the FIA have revised their Turbo Boost tolerance. This may have taken some of SEAT’s advantage away, but reasonable notice this time allowed the Spanish marquee to adjust their cars. It seemed
The British Touring Car Championship visited the North West of England on the weekend, with three rounds at a sunny Oulton Park. Colin Turkington won the first two events of the day in his Team RAC BMW 320Si. Turkington took the lead in the opening race from the line, overtaking the all-Chevrolet front row of Jason Plato and Matt Jackson. Plato followed
