Faster Formula One Cars

When you see the new Formula One cars on the track this year you’ll see cars that look like they barely slow down in the corners. You couldn’t take your street car, even if it’s a sports car, and do what these cars are doing on the track. In fact most streets cars are only about one-eight as capable as these impressive Formula One cars are at the track and the only real limiting factor inside these cars is coming down to the driver and what they’re willing and able to endure during a race.

Advice You Need When Selling Your Car on Your Own

While selling your car yourself typically benefits you the most because you can make the most money this way, it can be a hassle for you. You may have to deal with several people inquiring about your car through the Craigslist ad you posted before you find someone who wants your car and is willing to pay the price you asked. Once you sell your car and the new owner drives away, leaving you with a nice check or envelope full of cash, you probably feel you're dealing with that car is over. (more…)

Can You Turn Your Car into a Self-Driving Machine?

As with any technology added to vehicles we expect the cost of self-driving cars to be much higher than a typical model when these cars hit the streets and are offered for all to enjoy the ride. Right now this autonomous technology is in the test phases and some companies, such as Tesla, that have already created systems that were close to a fully autonomous system, have pulled back the reigns a bit in an effort of caution before the technology is advanced to the point of no return.

Another Car We Want to Drive

Whether we need to relax the regulations that are in place for the automotive industry or automakers need to make sure every car they make can be offered in the US, something needs to be done. There are too many great cars on the market today that never get to be sold or driven in the US for the reasons of power, pollution and adherence to the safety standards that our regulatory bodies seem to think are necessary. We miss out on so many great cars it almost seems unfair for the country that has so much space and room to drive to not have the absolute best driving cars in the world. (more…)

Are You Capable of Parallel Parking

The ability to pull into a space and fit between two other vehicles while nestled up next to a curb is probably the type of parking that’s bewitched more of us than any other part of driving on the roadways. There are rules to how you should perform this maneuver and for many driving tests you need to know how to do this in order to pass the test. That seriously puts the pressure on you when you have to parallel park while your instructor is watching ready to give you a passing or failing score and deny or grant your license. (more…)

A Record Setting Parade

Companies have been setting various records around the world regarding the size of a flag towed around a track and how far it’s been towed and the number of vehicles in one place of one time for many years. Each time they do this the numbers get bigger to try and set new records each time in order to recreate the numbers for the Guinness World Record books. As much as it might seem a publicity stunt, and you can bet each one of these new records is certainly a publicity event, it’s pretty cool to see what and how these records are being set. (more…)

It’s Winter Out There

The Northeast may get pummeled with snow and ice, the Midwest can’t make up its mind, the South barely notices a difference and the West has all four seasons at one time, and the extreme north is stuck in a wintry mix all the time, we seem to be challenged when it comes to driving. Whether it’s because preparations weren’t made or because driving habits weren’t changed, there is an increase in the number of accidents on the roads when snow and ice are a factor while driving. If you’ve been lucky so far and haven’t experienced any challenges on the road, here are some things to keep in mind for the winter months: (more…)

It May Be Time for a Restoration Project in Europe

Areas of the world where wars have been fought often show signs of those wars for many years to come. Europe is a continent where many wars have been fought in its history. From the early days as borders were created to the difficulty in religious and economic differences to the wars that ravaged the entire world such as World Wars I and II, Europe has been a place that’s been ransacked, destroyed, rebuilt, and then destroyed again only to be rebuilt once more. This continent is amazing in its history and in the fact that it’s been the scene of so many wars. (more…)

How Good a Driver Do You Have to Be?

Driving isn’t something we should take lightly, it’s a privilege and a rite of passage for most of us that represents freedom, growing up and marks one of the first events in our lives that makes us feel as if we are becoming adults. Learning how to drive properly and using the skills necessary to make adjustments on the road to stay in the lane is part of the finer points of driving skill that we learn during this time, but some drivers have more skill than others.
