With the rising demand for pickup trucks, more and more people are wanting performance variants of their favorite trucks. Ford's Lightning was a huge hit during its time of production, and still commands a premium on the used market because of its ease of modification. Once again, Roush has noticed a demand, and created a response, and in this case, has stolen the show from the other producers. |

Hopefully we are finally seeing what we have all been begging Ford to do for years. The Ford Falcon, a four door sedan with a performance based V8 or Inline 6 engine. In the world of 400 hp Hemi sedans and the upcoming Pontiac G8, Ford is going to be left in the dust unless they produce something to compete. Australians have been driving the Falcon sedans for quite a few years, and they have proven that they are a competitive sports sedan. We hope Ford decides to give the US a crack at them, we think it would be a very profitable situation for all parties. Especially the drivers... |

Driving a race car 10/10ths is a skill that not many can handle. However, take this feat, then add heavy rains, an entire field of other cars, and speeds over 150 mph and you end up with cojones the size of the wheels in the new JayZ video. With magnificent past performances on track, the Matech Ford GT race cars seemed to promise a thrilling season, but a win this early in the season? This is going to be good. |

If you were
like most children, you spent at least a little time driving a go-cart. So you
will remember the first time you strapped yourself in, donned your helmet and
cracked a devious smile as the track worker told you which pedal was the gas
And you probably dont remember anything else he said. |

Friday the 13th is usually a day associated with bad luck and bad news, however, Bob Lutz gave automotive enthusiasts something to cheer about today. The Corvette SS that we have been drooling over for the past year is getting closer and closer to being complete, according to Lutz. When he starts saying things like, "We're way up there with Porsche Carrera GTs and Ferraris," you know we are in for something great. |
