Formula 1: 2013 Schedule and Preview
Formula One is the pinnacle of motosport. It’s high tech, high speed, and high drama as the egos often are as large as the budgets of the teams. The season kicks off in Melbourne, Australia which will be the first of just 19 races this year. Sadly the people trying to put together the race in New Jersey could not pull it off and attempts to find a race to replace it were unsuccessful. The F1 will also lose a team this year with HRT dropping out due to financial reasons. Of course they were largely non factors anyway. The rules this year are largely the same, this of course will be the last year of the naturally aspirated V8s engine an era in F1. The only rule change to speak of is that DRS is no not allowed in qualifying.
Below I’ve added the entire race schedule for this year so hit the jump and check it out, as well as some more pictures from winter testing.

The Yokohamo Ferrari 458 is ready for the ALMS race at Sebring
The American Le Mans Series kicks off in full force this weekend with the always awesome 12 Hours of Sebring, which is held at Sebring International Raceway in Florida. This weekend is setting up to be an awesome race weekend with the ALMS race, F1 kicking off their season in Melbourne, and NASCAR heading to Bristol. For now though let’s focus on ALMS and particularly the Yokohama Ferrari 458.
The Ferrari 458 will run in the GTC class this weekend, pitting it against 11 other teams vying for the class win. It is usually a hotly contested class that makes for some great racing.

V8 powered Muscle cars
With car show season just a short few weeks away my longing to see muscle cars is at a fever pitch. It’s just a reminder of how long the winter is here in the Midwest and how I have to make the most out of the upcoming warm weather. So I decided we needed another post of some cars I’ve shot in the past.
If this sort of thing interests you, you know muscle cars, hot rods, general bitchin’ rides then hit the jump for lots more.
