You want to race what against me?

My truck, your car, even up At first glance it would be a no-brainer who the winner would be, right? The car. Unless of course you are Volvo with what they call the fastest truck in the world, put against their World Touring Car Championship Volvo S60 Polestar TC1 in both a drag race and...

Exactly like your car down to the paint code

Carpeting and paint codes As a kid my first promo model was a pink '63 VW Bug. I had my eye on this at the local hobby shop for the longest time lusting over it although I doubt at age five I knew what lust was. Dad said is was mine if I would give... Continue Reading →
