Eating breakfast next to the track.

It’s Saturday morning, 5AM, and Yim is at the door. Time to go! We head back over to the shop to pick up our cars. It’s not even 6AM and Ferdie is quick detailing his car; no comment.

Westend Alignment in Gardena, CA

Westend Alignment is the best, the end.

Westend Alignment is the best, the end.

After you’ve sunk thousands of dollars into your adjustable coilover suspension (at least 2-way), you’ll need to get an alignment to uncap the potential that now lies within your car.

Motor Trend teamed up with Ford and driver Marcus Gronholm to create a very cool video of the rally champ’s 2009 Pikes Peak time attack in Ford’s Fiesta Rallycross. It’s about 9 minutes long and in my opinion, well worth the watch. There’s a couple different camera views, with most of it being in-car footage and it’s all in high definition with high quality audio. All I can say is,…
