It's the drag battle we've been eagerly awaiting: the fastest, latest, best optimized product from Tesla against Porsche's fastest, quietest people carrier. Though these two heavyweights might seem sterile to some, they both offer the well-heeled consumer a level of torque, response, and stick that's unrivaled and cannot be ignored. Unless they've …

Here’s How Porsche Nearly Won Pikes Peak Overall And Had It All Snatched Away At The Last Second
All through the week leading up to the 98th running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb it was a Porsche in the lead of almost every session. With David Donohue's glorious GT2 RS Clubsport featuring a few extra bits for the attack on the mountain, the combination of car and driver were just plugged in and ready from day one. Donohue …

In another enthusiastic review from Roads Untraveled, we learn why pairing an American V8 with a German FR sports coupe is a wonderful idea. It blends what's wonderful about a Corvette with the great visibility, short overhangs, modest proportions, and exquisite interior of the 944.
