Formula D Round 5: Seattle

Wrecked Magazine went out to a (oh, what a surprise) wet and rainy Seattle to bring us all the slippery action from Formula D Round 5.

All your favorite drivers had their work cut out for them on the slick track, but it proved no match for podium-finisher Robbie Nashida in his Hankook Nissan 350Z. Showing off their skills in a wet track clinic, Sam Hubinette and Rhys Millen showed everyone why they're the one's to beat, with Millen enforcing the point with his first place finish.

Check out the action from Formula D Round 5: Seattle

And he's good off-road, too! Ride with Streefire & Rhys Millen at Pikes Peak Hill Climb

Rich People's Garages

Ever dream of opening your garage door one day and there's the car of your dreams inside? That's pretty much what mattzooooom has put together for us. Except it's cars, plural. We're not sure what all these lucky people did in order to stock their 3- and 4-door garages (and barns and warehouses) with such fine examples of sheetmetal, but we wanna know!

In the meantime, see what Rich People's Garages look like. Hint: they've generally got at least 1 Italian exotic, 1 German luxury sedan and a pristine American muscle car inside.

To better understand why someone would shell out $200k+ on one of these things (as if they need a justification), see what Tiff Needell had to say about the F430 Scuderia

Sam Hubinette Knows Car Control

Cheers to our own Fireshake for sharing this little gem with y'all.

Sam Hubinette knows cars and he definitely knows car control. If it were anyone else behind the wheel we might have been a bit worried for Alexis' safety (OK, not really, we don't like him that much anyway), but given it's the Drift God From Sweden, we're just happy to sit back and watch it happen.

Slick, man, very slick.

Maybe they breed them a bit differently in Sweden, but what d'ya know, his wife can drive, too! Watch Drift Queen Stina

LP560-4 & Other Exotics On A Night Run

Looks like Hovik 's been having a good time with his buddies over on the East Coast.

Nothing beats getting together with some friends in your respective rides and taking a drive, en masse, on some of your local roads.

If the turnout for this ride is anything to go by, it's a popular past time in NY! Various Vipers, Porsches, Ferraris, Corvettes, BMWs, a Quattroporte and, of course, the LP560-4 hit the road as the sun goes down and the engines rev up.

Tag along with the LP560-4 & Other Exotics

Night Run With Exotics

Massive kudos to Hovik for this awesome video; it might be your first shooting and editing effort, but we don't want it to be your last!

There are almost too many exotics in this video to even mention, but we'll try. It's like a wish list, as in a "wish I won the goddamn lottery" list of cars you'd want in your dream garage: Carrera GT, Gallardo Superleggera, Z06, Viper, Ruf Porsche, NSX, Murcielago, Quattroporte, 911 Turbo...and there are several of each - just pick your color, year, coupe or convertible.

Fantastic shots of the cars all gathering, the sheetmetal glowing pink in the setting sun. Then the convoy is off, with glorious exhaust notes aplenty. Yeah...we might need to watch that one again.

Live vicariously through those that did the Night Run With Exotics and wish you were that lucky.

2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR

The car in this video from ReedBrothersDodge doesn't even move and we don't even care!

How f***ing cool does this car look?! It's a 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR, which stands for American Club Racer. Because, obviously, 600HP is simply not enough to please people these days. They have to have just a little bit more.

And that's where the ACR edition comes in. While the motor is untouched, this beast of a machine gets several upgrades that reduce weight and, thus, give us more power. Amen to that!

Extra air-flow management, enhanced breaking (did you see the size of those rotors and calipers...), lightweight wheels and some additional weight-saving measures mean this car means very serious business.

We're in love with this car and we haven't even seen it move or heard it rumble. Who we gotta pay around here to get some goddamn RWD, tire-smoking action of this thing?

For some 2-wheels vs. 4-wheels action, who d'ya think's gonna win when it's a Twin Turbo Dodge Viper vs. Turbo Suzuki Hayabusa

Drool over the 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR here.

Bullrun Rally 2007 Episode #6

More action courtesy of Bullrun as we catch up with the 2007 rally en route from Montreal to Key West.

We last left the Bullrunners at their lunchtime stop in Concord, VA, where a hearty BBQ lunch was followed by a tire-smoking drift demo, just the sort of dessert that every petrolhead loves.

The teams then head South, again, bound for Savannah, GA, a genteel town that's never seen the likes of this lot before.

Progress is hampered by seemingly every State Trooper being out on patrol, plus a few unmarked cars that are trying to sneak up on our supposedly unsuspecting Bullrunners. However, plenty of counter measures (plus a relay of phone calls) alerts the pack to the wolf in their midst.

Meanwhile, Team Texas' Richard Rawlings & Dennis Collins are flying into Savannah from LA. Having shattered the cross-country record, they're now intent on beating all the rallyers to the Georgia checkpoint, too.

Back out on the road, Team Audi thinks back roads are the key to coming in first...until they realize they're nearly out of gas. But the prize for competing with true Bullrun spirit goes to David from Team Make-A-Wish who's just paid $2,500 to get bailed out of jail in Virginia. Ah well, at least he got a nice commemorative photo wearing his prison stripes and handcuffs!

It's not a race, it's a rally...but if you get caught speeding, try telling that to the nice officer with the handcuffs.

Can a Chrysler 300 SRT8 take a C6 Vette?

Time for some MOPAR love, here is a well put together video from Mellon at RaceVideoForums.com. About 3 minutes in we see a SRT-8 playing on the highway with a Vette, doesn't look to me like they started out at the same time, so personally I would want to see a rematch, but watch for yourself to be the judge. Also later in the video we see a Viper shut down a C5 Corvette who is trying to get around...not terribly surprising.....
