For many years I’ve been told that SCCA has a fairly unique medical insurance plan for its entrants and registered crew which many other racing organizations don’t have anything like it. If you are a part of SCCA Road Racing events, this truly is important information to know. And if you race with other organizations, […]
A Reborn Premium and Sporty Compact One of our most memorable experiences was driving a brand-new Acura Integra GSR in the mid-1990’s.

I’ve often wondered in Club Racing, what separates the drivers who are consistently at the front of the pack and winning, to other drivers?

Previously Hoosier made a dirt tire call Dirt Stocker which while not designed for road racing, had a DOT rating and became THE rain race tire to have. The amount of grip they provided in heavy rain conditions was honestly amazing. However, if the track dried you were in big trouble as the tires were […]
In this review, I’ll provide my feedback of the ShakeKit after using it for a few months. I stumbled across the product on one of the racing forums and it immediately intrigued me as a possible way to make the sim more engaging and fun. This is an unbiased review where no product or other […]

Old-School Fun! We were intrigued by the looks of this particular Nissan 370Z when we saw it at Monticello Motor Club, so we decided to learn more about it and take it for a quick drive around Monticello, NY. Nissan is celebrating 50 years of making “Z” cars so they added a $2,600 50th anniversary […]
