Murder Wagon: 10-second CTS-V Wagon Tears Up The Track And Gets The Groceries

Few things in life are cooler than a fast wagon, especially if that wagon happens to be a murdered-out Cadillac CTS-V with big power and some Weld drag wheels out back. The murder wagon in question is ripping off 10.87 passes at 131 mph and looking mean while doing it! I don’t know about you, [...]

1989 BMW E30 325is Boosted to 400 Horsepower

A stock E30 BMW is about as glorious as inhaling a fresh and pure mountain breeze after walking out of a porta-potty. A turbocharged, 400-horsepower E30 is about as sensational as escaping from a porta-potty falling from 30,000 feet, and parachuting away through crystal-clear skies. I compare the E30 driving experience to a pure mountain [...]

Tales from SRK: Nitrous Huffing C5Z vs Twin-Turbo Mustang 5.0

You know, I don’t think the C5 Corvettes really get enough credit. They’re over shadowed by the excellent C6 cars and the new C7, but they have a lot going for them. That goes double for the Zs. Apparently, it doesn’t take all that much for them to handle the odd, pesky, twin-turbo Mustang. Or… Maybe [...]
