I was invited to the new Los Angeles location of the Exotics Racing Driving Experience, to drive a supercar of my choosing. This is a brief description of my experience. I was out the door before I’d texted, “yes”. I get to test drive a lot of fast cars —most recently comparing a new Porsche […] More »

Today there are more car review channels on the internet than there are ones with naked people doing naked things. Ok, so maybe not, but we’re close.

So many cars, so little time.  Sometimes Road & Track has to make its reviews short and sweet.  The magazine did just that with the 2014 Audi S4.
