Thank God. It was about time. I’ve been rooting for this drifter since 2006 and it’s nice to see he’s back in the game. It’d be great if he could keep up his winning streak. Stay strong Dai and ganbatte ne! Photo courtesy of Mike Garrett. Speedhunters. May.8.10. speedhunters.com.
Daily drivers aren’t supposed to be gas guzzlers unless you’re stinking rich. For the commuters out there, this car is perfect. Rated at 51/48 MPG, the Toyota 2010 Prius wins my fuel saver category.

So far, Schumacher hasn’t been on his game though. Four races have passed, including Bahrain, Australia, Malaysia and China, but he’ still no where near first place. Blame the car, not… Read More →
