Now this is a good idea!Highways in Netherlands will utilize glow in the dark powder to change the driver experience by changing the road surface, not the auto travelling on the surface.   More than just reflective coating, this powder gathers a charge during the day, and can then light contours and surfaces for up to 10 hours after dark.…See More

Why Can't they All be Beautiful? Cool Parking Garages

Old Bike, Old Boy, Great Sons. What a story about a Norton 750 Commando brought back from the brink!

O.K.  This story grabbed me on several levels.  

  • What a great project for two brothers to work on together for their Dad. 
  • The Norton Commando in black as pictured was absolutely my dream bike back in the day...(well..my dream bike had slightly different forks, but other than that small detail, this is the bike!)
  • I just finished a motorcycle trip down the California coast with my son.  Hearing him describe it as "an Epic trip" to his friends may have been the…

BMW vs Mercedes and.....Hyundai?

I had a BMW drive event at a dealership yesterday...  BMW is hosting these across the USA and contributing to the US Olympic team for every consumer that shows up to test the BMW cars.  In addition to their own line, they offer up a couple of Mercedes models that they view as direct competitors to the BMW 5 and 7 series.

 

I was scheduled to test a 6 convertible, but they offered to let me try out 3 or 4 different cars.

 

First up was the 2011 550i with its 402hp…

Hi Steve, Yes, much like a brit in terms of sportiness, but much more nimble and very reliable! I have Tien coilover 16 way adjustables on all 4 corners and dropped about 2 inches. It handles like it's on rails! Also added Rsport Panasport knockoffs designed for track cars, and subtle intake, exhaust, and ignition upgrades. It is a blast to drive on twisties which is my weekend passion. I would , however, trade her for a hot rod!
