Misc

Although there was still a bounty of hotties this year, there were fewer than last. Outside the wheels and tyres hall, many manufacturers seemed more dependant on having their products do the talking.

Still, here’s a sample selection, full gallery on our Facebook page later this week…

SEMA 2013 Reflections

First off, it has to be said, once again my mind is blown by the scale, variety, manufacturer involvement, expense and general awesomeness of the show.

Car of the show, in engagement terms, remained the BRZ/GT86/FR-S. Not as many as last year possibly, but still the most utilised car out there to showcase your company and/or it’s products.

Supercar wise, the Mclaren MP4-12C has been dethroned. This year was all about the Aventador for high end companies.

Charity thrill rides this Sunday at Knockhill’s Track Attack Live event!

Racers Caroline and Steph McMurdo have teamed up with their racing buddies to offer members of the public passenger laps with some of the Scottish Motor Racing Club’s top drivers, as part of the fund raising they are doing to support Edinburgh based charity It’s Good 2 Give.

For just £10, passengers will experience 3 laps of Knockhill circuit with their own tame[ish] racing driver at the wheel in the very cars they race at Knockhill. Cars and drivers include competitors from the Scottish MINI Cooper Cup who stole the show at last weekend’s BTCC and we can expect all their usual ten-tenths kerb hopping antics guaranteeing an adrenaline filled ride!

The culmination of the fund raising will see the McMurdo girls trekking up Mount Kilimanjaro in October, we wish them the best of luck!
