Ugly Cars
Transitioning from just for fun to make it faster.
Bombing this turd around our little track has been a blast but since it refuses to die, the time has come to address some specific issues keeping the experience from the best version of itself. The fact that we get to test some hardware along the way is a major bonus. The biggest issue has…

Read MoreReady to challenge the Boss Karen in your neighborhood? You NEED this “antique” service van
Escalate the battle with your local HOA in a way only a junky old service van can. It’s under the 10k mark so in most localities it’s not considered a commercial vehicle, it’s an antique so a set of collector car tags will make it legal without an inspection, and best of all? This thing…
