GU+ at the Prescott Rally
This weekend, we’re in Prescott, Arizona, USA, attending the Prescott Rally, part of the USRC championship. We’re posting pictures to our Gearheads-United Tumblr (GU+) outpost until the battery on the Blackberry dies (which it did about an hour ago).
Back ‘Round to the All ‘Rounder
With our 2 year anniversary fresh in our minds, it was fortuitous we ran into our old friend Dominic Green. We interviewed Dominic about a year ago, and he told us about how he used his red, 97 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST. Much has changed in Dominic’s garage in the last year. We thought it made for an interesting story. Perhaps yours is similar?
Modify Your Life, Part 3
Something you know how to do: Modifying your car. If you’re reading this, you’re probably a gearhead. Modifying your life isn’t easy, but neither is modifying cars. Sure, it might seem easy today, but we all started somewhere.
Norwegian Classics
Mid-2011, Ringebu, Norway. Most of us probably don’t even know where Ringebu is located, but yet it’s the place to be at this time of the year. Why?

Modify Your Life, Part 2
Today we get started with the serious automotive metaphor. As gearheads, we’re pretty good about figuring out how to modify our vehicles. It’s not so easy to modify our lives, though. (Or is it?)
Crown Jewels Found Down Under
Ever went to a local junkyard for some parts, or perhaps just to look around? If you can answer that question with a yes; you can probably agree on the fact that there are a lot of cars standing/laying around that should’ve never been there. At some point, you start wondering why they ever ended up there, because even after laying there for 5+ years, they are still salvageable. Let us take a look at a local junkyard in Australia and see what gems we can discover.
Gearbox Magazine is 2 Years Old Today!
On 19 September 2009, Gearbox Magazine went live. Since then, we’ve come to discover that it doesn’t matter what vehicle we drive, or how we drive it, or even what language we speak. We are all gearheads.
The 54th Frankfurt International Autoshow
This week was the 64th Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung, or Frankfurt International Autoshow. The autoblogosphere is rank with autowriters showing you all the same pictures and paraphrasing the same press releases. If you’re lucky, your favorite automotive media outlet had boots on the ground there this week, taking original pictures and telling you why the stories matter, how they will impact you, and what makes their coverage newsworthy.
