If you were to try and map out to my seemingly endless love of the automobile, a single type of car would rise out above all of my other motoring interests. A type of machine, that never fails to stir my soul, make my heart race and causes me to grin from ear to ear like an unhinged maniac. I'm sure most of you, dear readers, are going to be with
I bet Dino Dalle Carbonare must have bought a big case of Red Bull to help him get through this week. You see, he's about to do something a bit crazy for the next five days: Dino's going to visit the Daikoku parking area on the outskirts of Tokyo each night from March 1st to March 5th. This fervor of activity will also see daily posts from the
For February on Speedhunters, the crew and I want to try something a little different. We want to pass you the keys to the site and have you submit YOUR content to Speedhunters. We all gather on this site every day after all, so why not share with the Speedhunters your own automotive interests? We want to discover some new cool machines from all corners
It's a beautiful day here in Vancouver, Canada. The sun is out, the sky is blue and the air is fresh and cool. It almost seems surreal right now, as the weather has been piss-poor as of late. The doom and gloom of the Canadian winter is setting in and the constant wet and dark conditions threaten to blacken our collective mood. It's just as
"Offset is everything" : This is a mantra which many of you guys have been preaching for some time now... But I want to question if wheel offset is indeed the be-all-end-all of modified cars aesthetics around the world. For me cars with offset wheels are usually great, but it's a rule that doesn't always apply to all cars across multiple
Sometimes the monthly Speedhunters themes have a very narrow focus and the site becomes becomes flooded with stories about single subject matter. This does work well if the theme is a broad subject matter which can be sliced and diced in multiple ways. However for October, we're going to go with a lightly applied theme, to allow the site to breathe
If I bring up the subject of universal pursuits common to most people, I'm sure a few items will pop into your mind. Take love for instance... the majority of people I know are busy trying to find this, or keep what they have in their lives working... I would also say that humanity doesn't seem to be very satisfied with the velocity possible
If you look at the history of All Wheel Drive in both Rallying and Circuit racing, and you compare this to the timeline of the automobile in the 20th century, it really hasn't been that long that AWD systems have been a success in motorsports. It was only in the early 1980s that AWD came to the forefront of rallying with the introduction of the
Welcome to the next month of your life... is 2009 treating you ok? Or are these tough times bringing the spirit of things down just a little bit? I suppose it's hard to keep your chin up when all you hear about in the news is doom and gloom... oh well... we still can dream about a nice future can't we?... Perhaps this daydream can include some
Do we have any non-believers in the audience? Anyone who doesn't get excited by hotted up cars on the edge-of-no-control ? People who are not thrilled when they see a machine being deliberately taken within centimeters of destruction? Side by side, heart pounding, mind blowing action all day long?
