Vaughn Gittin Jr. has taken back to back wins at rounds 4 and 5 of this year’s Formula Drift Championship. His most recent win at Evergreen Speedway in Seattle puts him in the points lead for the Championship. Network A provides their usual excellent coverage of his performance.
Meet Jim McCrady. Jim works as a machinist for Holley and he built this Frankenstein of a 1941 Ford Sedan 2 Door Hot Rod. He bought the body off of an old man who sold fresh eggs and then put it on a Chevy S-10 chassis and then powered all of it with a stroked Chevy small block being force fed by a Weiand blower and a Holley double pumper carburetor.
Jim mentions that he thinks of this song whenever he’s behind the wheel of his Hot Rod:
This is a tribute to Ford Racing’s contribution to the World Rally Championship. It starts in the Ford Focus era with Marcus Gronholm and moves into the current car, the Fiesta.
Here is yet another comparison between the top representatives of the modern muscle car era, the Ford Shelby GT500 and the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. Normally I would wait a little longer to post this after the Motor Trend comparison, but I thought Chris Harris offered some fresh insights into these cars. He’s from the UK and spends most of his time driving cars in Europe, so he hasn’t had as much exposure to American muscle cars. Between the two comparisons, you get a really complete picture of what the two cars are like. Harris spends time in both cars driving them around Manhattan at slow speeds and then takes them the track at Monticello to see how they perform at high speeds.
