Tuerck’d continues to be one of my all-time favorite web series. Whether it’s because I envy his lifestyle (I do), or his shear ability to turn a perfectly good tire to ash while sliding at absurd angles, Tuerck’d is definitely a web series I can get behind.

Speedhunters has a great writeup on Fredric Aasbo qualifying 1st at Road Atlanta on Saturday. I love Larry Chen’s pics of that little RWD Hankook Tire Scion Racing tC smoking tires! Sadly, when Sunday rolled around Aasabo ended up with sixth place overall after a mishap with Vaughn Gittin Jr’s Mustang. Overall, first place went to […] More »
