Woowhooo! The blogs are back! I’m really feelin it now! Group B… Group B, one of the most mental series in all of motorsport history. A time of huge wings, power, technological advancements, and most of all, danger. Group B was dangerous, and people got hurt. Crowds would routinely loose small limbs like fingers and toes as the cars flew past at breakneck speeds. Drivers would crash, get seriously injured, and in some cases, even die. Those deaths lead to the cancellation of a new replacement to group B, Group S.

When Porsche was first building the Cayman, (named after the Crockadile, not the islands) and since Crocs are, ya know, based on the animal, Porsche sued them. They thought people would get confused between the shoes and the car…. Porsche won the case and FRIGGEN BANNED CROCS FROM GERMANY Yikes

Secret lovers, purely explicit relationships, and a NEW FLIBBEN ALBUM. This is a track from Gorrilaz’ new album, Humanz. The mellow, base heavy beat, the meaning, and oh did I get to the meaning of the song? She’s my collar is a song about 2-D’s relationship with a special someone. I won’t get into it because I don’t want to get reported for talking about that kind of thing on this website, so here’s the thingy here.

The first one, and arguably the most iconic, is Ferrari’s big V12. Almost every Ferrari has a V12 and rightfully so. V12s are, by far some of the best sounding and performing engines. Sure, they’re big and heavy but hey, you wouldn’t complain if a F12 Berlinetta showed up on your doorstep? Models that feature the V12 125 166 the 250 series the 373 series the 412 the Enzo and many many many many many many many many many many many many more…

December 7th. 1941. Japan Attacks Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. 2400 soldiers dead, 21 ships, gone, 188 air crafts, kaput. Japan got pissed. They had trade deals pushed aside, trade bans placed on their items and heck, they also wanted the strongest Navy in the world. America, like any county, got pissed. After extensive testing, the US sent a plane, Enola Gay (which I’ve seen. It’s huge), carrying bomb known as known as Little boy. The plane took off at 2:45. 6 hours later, and at 8:15 on a Friday morning, the three planes arrive.

Alright. So In my college class (Yes i’m in one, it’s called ITEC, Information Technology Early College) and as a first assignment we where told to write a one page essay (it’s short, I know) and me being me, I wrote mine on being an auto journalist. Without further-ado… Oh and professor, If you think everything I wrote was plagiarism, just ask me to show you my profile in class.

Every major company has had it’s ups and downs. Sometimes it’s great, while other times it’s going right into the crap hole. These are some of the good, bad, and worse times for Ferrari. The good! It was 2002. Ferrari had hired a promising F1 driver, Micheal Schumacher. Later that driver won a total of 5 championships with Ferrari. He also would go on to test some of Ferrari’s best models including the Enzo and FXX.

What? A lamborghini SUV? The only SUV from these Italians you know of is that concept called the Urus. But really? An SUV? From the time when Lamborghini made the Countach and the Jalpa (my dream car). A time when, like that wall Mr. Trump proposes, V12s were massively huge. 8.7 lt V48 engine? Yes please! Anyways, this thing had the huge engine from the countach. I want one, how ‘bout you?

Alright, if you’re uncomfortable with race talk and stereotypes, this post isn’t for you. Who do you think would come out of… ... This car Really? Who do you think would come out of this car. A. A man of African descent B. A Caucasian C. An Asian D. A person of spanish descent. Now let’s give you time to think….. Time’s up, and your answer was A, right? Thought so. Now why? Why would you put an African man in a car like this? Because you’re racist of course!

Just look at those faces, ah so fun! 5: NA Miata C’mon, you can’t tell me that when you see one of these you don’t smile. It’s sooooo happy! I’d say this get’s about 200 Smiles Per Gallon. 4: Mazda 3 If you have this car, keep the stock bumper. It’s so happy to be alive, like “Ahhhhh, Im related to the RX7!” Get’s around 890 SPM

It starts in the year 2000. Haruhiko Tanahashi gathers his hand picked group to begin working on what would become Lexus’ super car. In november of the same year, that highly qualified team built the first working prototype. Early the next year they began working on the body shape which, by the way, is one of the greatest designs (In my opinion) ever. In 2002 (My birth year), the 4.8lt V10 engine we all know and love was created. By may 2003, they first chassis was made out of Aluminum but wait, you say, the LFA was made from Carbon Fiber…
