    M14???

    Are you sure that it was the M14 that lapped the TG track? I don't think they've got around to finalising the road spec for that model, let alone risked sending a press demo model to be thrashed by...

    Yeah, it all depends very much on the conditions of the track and the tyres on the day. Also things like how much fuel there is weighing the car down can make a difference. I generally don't pay a...

    The British press has today reported that the main reason behind Button choosing to leave BAR could be down to money, more specifically performance bonuses. They speculate that when he first signed...

    This is the pattern used in a lot of racing gearboxes of both past and present. It's called a dog-leg first gear, the thinking behind it is that...

    What a legend!

    Saw this article in the paper this morning, this guy is a hero! In an age when it seems the goverment and pretty much all major car manufacturers are concerned with dumbing down and sanitising our...

    It all goes to show how much difference a bumpy, cambered and undulating track can make. In Evo's Track car of the year competition the Noble was only 0.3 secs ahead of the Porker on what is a longer...

    Poll: Jenson Button???

    Why has Jenson Button not been included in the vote? Is it just an accidental oversight or do you really not rate him that highly? I personally don't think he's quite the best of the rest but I think...

    I admit that it's probably fun getting an automatic throttle blip on downshifts, but it can't be anywhere near as fun and rewarding as doing it yourself on a proper manual gearbox. To me it seems all...

    Cool little website.

    Overkill???

    I can't help thinking TVR may have gone a bit overboard with the power output of the Typhon. With that much power, such little weight and such slim rear tyres I fear that on all but the smoothest of...
