Car Pron: One Car to Do It All (Petrolicious)

Petrolicious brings us a look at the 911 RSR, and garage it resides in, of one Jack Olsen. For those of you not familiar with his story, he's dedicated himself to building the ultimate car and garage in which to perform any mechanical or engineering task that arises. Jack's plight, while its beginnings were much further along in life, is much like many of ours. It's always good to get reassurance on fulfillment of long-term car goals. I think you all know what I'm talking about.

Car Pron: 2013 BMW M5 vs. 2013 BMW M6 Coupe at the Track (CarAndDriver)

The Car and Driver abroad series brings us a pretty tasty match up; the new M5 vs the new M6. Should you really spend more money for the M6 when you can get all the same go-fast goodies in the better looking, four door, M5?

The 2013 race weekend at Daytona had a bit more going on than what aired last weekend; the Ferrari and Sports Car Challenges opened for the 24hrs of Daytona and they'll be airing those events this Saturday. The touringcar racing continues, and Top Gear (UK) is now airing the current season on Mondays, with a simple one week delay, on the BBC. Awesome. Top Gear (US) is new on History Channel and there's plenty of regulars. Enjoy your weekends.
