#GTKY: Top 3 Car Shows for Gearheads
We gearheads love looking at pictures of cars. From old school rat rods to the most modern of hyper-cars, it’s hard to get enough. Isn’t the internet great? This isn’t to say we don’t also like to attend car shows, but there’s just so many. How do we choose?
Back to the Past: Essen Motorshow 2010
Earlier this month, we showed you what the Essen Motorshow 2006 looked like. Today, we’ll skip some years (four, to be exact), and take a look how the event has evolved. To give a few hints: more classic cars, less bikes, more Opel, more Irmscher, more US classics, and less European classics…
Back to the Past: Essen Motorshow 2006
It’s time for the second part in the series;Back to the Past, where we do reports on meetings/events held in the past. Today, we’ll check out a Hummer in Gulf trim, Golf R32s, yellow Lamborghinis, fast Opels, a lot of girls, and a mix of old timers, modern (tuned) cars, and some bikes. Yes, we’re taking you back to the Essen Motorshow. In 2006 to be exact.
Back to the Past: Spa Retromobile Meeting 2008
We are always looking to bring you stories you won’t find anywhere else. We like to interview you (gearheads make the world go ’round), but we got to thinking maybe you’d like to see some of the things we’ve seen over the years. We’re going to start going back in time to report on past automotive events, starting today, with these pictures from when I attended the 2008 Spa Retromobile Meeting in Belgium.
Dirtiest Pictures of Your Car?
It’s winter in the northern hemisphere. In a big part of the world that means that there’s a lot of bad weather, freezing, and snow. For me it’s the opportunity to see my car dirty like it’s never been before. What’s the dirtiest your car has ever been? In the winter, rain, rally, or whatever; show your pics!
Lars’ Nissan Silvia S15
A few months ago, I was chilling on my balcony (road-view) with my girlfriend. Suddenly I heard a ridiculous sound and I saw a white F16 flying over the main road. After I few seconds I remembered that white F16s don’t exist. That was my first introduction to Lars’ Nissan Silvia S15.
L&H Historic Team: Porsche 911 and Opel Manta Rallying
Belgium… A country well known for its fries, beer, chocolate and… RALLIES! A country that only exists 181 years, and originally belonged to the Netherlands, is now becoming one of the most loved rally areas by both national and international rally teams. When we received information about a rally team from Belgium and found out they were rallying a Porsche 911 and Opel Manta B, we just knew we had to ask them for an interview. Meet L&H Historic Team, a team of enthusiasts, who spend all their free time on their biggest hobby; rally.
