For me what really makes cars of all vintages interesting is the details. Older vintages seem to have elements that pull me in, I can’t speak to why, but there’s something about certain awful plastic or even bakelite knobs, buttons, dials and gauges that is incredibly tactile… The details of these cars evoke so much [...]

Since it’s been a while since I posted, why not start off with an event I’ve missed the last couple of due to prior arrangements. As an event CSCS is always put on with a great amount of effort and support by sponsors and organizers. However from the perspective of entrant cars, there wasn’t a [...]

Gumball 3000 came through Canada this year bringing with it the cars, some glitz, and a lot of crowds! The cars on the Gumball see a [...]
ALMS quite literally roared into Mosport this past weekend and having missed the past two years because of my stupid birthday landing on this weekend I was determined to go this time. Forsaking family and the girlfriend and donned my rain gear and went with a good friend who knows the track decently with the [...]
