We have one hell of a weekend ahead of us, starting with Practice #1 starting at 12am Friday morning at the Australian Grand Prix. There are a ton of story lines for the coming season; Hams at Petronas Mercedes, Sergio Perez not replacing Massa like many people thought last year (who kept his job at Scuderia Ferrari), but replacing Hams at McLaren Mercedes; Vettel and Webber back at it again with Newey and the gang, Raikkonen and Lotus Renault trying to improve upon their standing from last Fall...then there are the 2013 rules changes. If that wasn't enough we have the 61st running of the Sebring 12 Hour race for ALMS. Instead of only SPEED2.com hosting the race this year the race will be on SPEED -- albeit broken into chunks. The Top Gear (UK) season finale is airing next Monday night on BBC America. Top Gear America is on break. Last, but not least, the current season of Fifth Gear (UK) (Season 22) will start airing on the Velocity channel at the beginning of April. Enjoy your race weekends!

Rally Pron: The Wye Dean rally in a Ratty BMW 325i (Drive)
With the WRC Season upon us I thought this was extremely appropriate; Chris Harris on Cars brings us a look at the Wye Dean rally that he recently competed in. The car used for the task was an E30 chassis BMW 325i. Even this "Ratty" rally car of his has a better dash than the red coupe. What an outrage! Enjoy.
