Expert Petrolhead Nirvana
posted by EventAddict, 13-Aug-08
How could I refuse an invite to the Ace Café to drool over some high end motors and drink some of the finest tea available in North West London? Supporting car clubs and meets is what we do. We like heading along and checking out the cars, chatting with the members, and grabbing some great footage to share with you guys. Petrolhead Nirvana was a meet that I would suggest is definitely worth checking out, no matter what car you drive. The cars on display were above the usual...
JDM Allstars Street Drift @ Wembley Arena 09-08-08posted by AaronHawes, 13-Aug-08
I had been excited about this day for weeks maybe a month or longer! The chance to see some of the top drifters from the UK and Europe competing at an arms reach in front of me, I couldnt miss this! When i got on the train it was warm and sunny, so i left my hoody at home put on my oakleys and prepared for an awesum day... or so i thought! On arriving at Wembley, the rain has already started, not a lot or very heavy, but enough to make the tarmac slippery for sure. As the day went...

posted by Victor Bray, 13-Aug-08
On behalf of Troy, I would like to thank everyone who showed support for him throughout his ordeal. When I spoke with Troy the morning the news broke of the deal that had been agreed on by both the District Attorney and Troy’s legal team Troy was still a bit tentative as the process to put the deal in place was still to come over the next day or so. He spoke of the support he had received from “back home” and from all those who had supported him along with...

Audi's unveils 426-kW RS6 sedanposted by Raymond Schoeman, 13-Aug-08
Audi’s 5.0-litre V10 features a number of features honed on the race-track, including FSI direct injection and dry sump lubrication, to dispatch 426 kW from 6 250 to 6 700 r/min and a bone-crunching peak torque figure of 650 Nm all the way from 1 500 r/min to 6 250 r/min. That power translates to supercar-like performance figures. How about a 0 - 100 km/h time of 4.5 seconds? Or a top speed limited electronically to 250 km/h that can be shifted to 280 km/h at the...
