There's a nice mix of four-wheeled entertainment this weekend and surprisingly SPEED2.com is showing live DTM racing on Sunday morning. Yes, I said live. Unfortunately it's the internet and not on cable, but you can plug your new laptop into your HDMI port and act like you're watching it on TV. Any way can we get more sportscar racing from Europe, we're better off here in the states. Enjoy your weekends.

Neo Vintage: The Million-Mile Porsche 356 (Petrolicious)

There's a few things we like here at ROTL, and one of those things is very desirable classic cars that are driven to be enjoyed. This Porsche 356, owned by Guy Newmark, more than exceeds our requirements. We can only hope he keeps this thing on the road for another engine rebuild or three.

Orbital Dreams: Car Glass: Cleaning and Polishing (DriveClean)

Larry of AMMONYC brings us another detailing special, this time focusing on the windshield glass maintenance. I got glass polish and pads from Griot's Garage almost a year ago and have yet to use them. Never thought I'd better served by using a razor before the polishing. You learn something new everyday.
