At this year’s LA Auto Show it wasn’t Ford who delivered the ultimate Mustang — it was their biggest dealership. Just three days after their reveal of the much hyped high-performance GT350 Mustang with “over 500” horsepower, Galpin Motors steals Ford’s thunder with a supercharged drag-strip monster, The Rocket. When the schedule for the 2014 LA Auto […]
We went to downtown LA this past Saturday night to watch the world debut of Ken Block’s latest ode to liquified rubber, Gymkhana 7. While the sixth edition of his Gymkhana series was slightly disappointing, let’s just say that Gymkhana 7 returns Block to the forefront of automotive bad assery. Eschewing the Ford Focuses he’s used in […]
Originally the plan was to reveal the most powerful Mustang ever at New York Auto Show next week (which we’ll be at — keep a look out!), but due to these wacky interwebs some pictures have leaked of Ford’s vehicular abomination and now there’s no getting Pandora’s demons back in the box.

The four guys in San Francisco’s The Stone Foxes play the sort of stripped down, roots rock n roll that has all but disappeared from the musical landscape. It’s dirty, gritty and loud, with tracks like “I Killed Robert Johnson” loaded with foot-stomping hooks and irresistible, sing-along choruses. Much like Creedence Clearwater Revival, it’s hard […]
