Alright, so I’m a bit of a geek. I just love when a cool new product shows up that combines cars and some of my favorite movies. In this case, ThinkGeek.com just released a new 1/12 scale replica of the Delorean DMC-12 from Back to the Future – including lights, moving parts, and sound effects. [...]
One of our faithful readers spotted a couple Lotus Evoras while on a ski trip in Chamonix in the French Alps last week (lucky!) It was obviously being shot for a movie, but she couldn’t figure out for what movie! Could it be the new James Bond? Here’s what she had to say:

While poking around for background info on another car story I came across this little bit of (what could be) great news: Hollywood will be doing a biopic about Phil Hill, the first American world driving champion, and Tobey Maguire is going to take the lead.

It’s very rare when you’re going to look at a list of something like “The Top 50 Bourbons”, and say, “They’re right ‘Ol Rebel Rot-Gut Special [...]
I know, I know … “willful suspension of disbelief” and “it’s just a movie” and all that, but BOY does Hollywood takes liberties with both physics AND cars a lot. From tires screeching on gravel to Tom Cruise as a viable race driver, they sure like to play fast and loose with all [...]
Did you know that Charlie Chaplin was in a racing movie? He was, it was called “Kid Auto Races at Venice”.
