I’m fairly confident in saying that whilst this is certainly not the last time I’ll be attending the British GT as it was some bloody brilliant motorsport (GT3 and a couple of GT4 cars in case any of you were paying attention or were actually there), I can safely say that it’s the last time […]
The FIA‘s proposed budget cap has caused a furore amongst some current F1 teams and Ferrari is the latest to speak out. Teams including Red Bull and Toyota have stated that the £40 million spending limit (not including drivers fees) would effectively create a two-tier championship between those accepting the self-imposed budget and those who […]
This is part 3 of my track day experience, you can read part 1 here, and part 2 here. I was due to drive the Ferrari F430 Spider convertible, but unfortunately due to timings I couldn’t actually make it for this one. Instead though, I was offered the Ferrari Challenge Stradale – a lightweight, extremely […]

Now that we seem to be having some sunny (if not warm) weather, there’s nothing better than going along to a track day – especially when you’ve been given the chance to drive both a Ferrari and a Lamborghini! It’s with this in mind that I thought I’d give you all a write-up of my […]

The defendant was speeding on the A515, and pleaded guilty to dangerous driving for driving a Lotus Elise at 105mph in a 50mph zone. The result of this law-breaking speed […]
If you’re tired of Porsche, Ferrari and Lamborghini what else should you buy, assuming you want raw power? Well, you’ve got a range such as Spyker, Ariel, Caterham, Morgan and Koenigsegg. However, only one of them really goes the whole way – designing something that for my mind looks like it has come from 20 […]
I’d say that currently the Nissan GT-R is probably one of the baddest, meanest, fastest cars on the market – or at least it will be when available over here. That’s a shame in a way, because Europe really should be the home of fast, sporty cars that everyone lusts after. However, the GT-R will […]
Do you know someone who bangs on and on about how modern cars or rubbish? Or how about the bloke in the pub who claims that his old Triumph TR-7 is better than anything else on the road? It always interests me when this sort of argument crops up – not least because I think […]
This top one hundred may raise a few eyebrows; one because Sir Stirling Moss has been named number one and the great Michael Schumacher has been placed outside of the top ten. This is because in he deals with the Ferrari F1 Team, many people claim that he demanded seniority over other drivers. Clearly Michael […]
