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 →

Dodge to return to NASCAR

It's about time they did! The Dodge Charger Hellcat is one of the fastest cars on the planet so it only makes sense that they hop back in.
