ZN6


2

One of my quiet and distant auto senpai once told me that modding cars was a game for children. Being a child at the time, I took this as old man talk. His logic was the following… How can the engineering resources of even the greatest tuning company possibly compete with those of a multi-billion dollar company like Porsche? […]

Car Life Flavour Turned Vanilla

It’s spring, and my fourth season with the FR-S begins… The fact that I’m still driving the car seems amazing in itself. When I bought the car I planned on keeping it forever, but I sure as hell didn’t plan on keeping it stock. As it is though, it has largely impressed and I have seen little need to spend money […]

2017 Season Prep

I don’t think that really has […]

You’re Still The One


I’m not one who really believes that video games skills translate to real life, or visa-versa, but having played my fair share, I believe that good racing games do at least get you thinking about the right concepts. Certainly, the serious gamers who I have driven with, always show real understanding of theory. I’ve been playing the Gran Truismo franchise […]
