If Today's TTAC Articles Made You Feel A Little Dirty, This Will Scrub You Clean

Bentleys making booty calls in public-housing projects? General Motors sucking on the public teat like a corporate version of Marilyn Chambers and receiving a billion-dollar money shot in return? Sex bloggers turning the walls of the Seattle W’s finest rooms into something that, when viewed with ultraviolet light, looks uncannily like a Jackson Pollock painting? It’s all too much!

Let’s scrub our minds clean with just under three minutes of great footage from last weekend’s SCCA National Tour autocross, complete with a top-notch video course description from one of the best technical drivers out there. Seriously. This is one to watch, if only to see the absolute truth with which every cone in every slalom is properly anticipated and pre-dialed.

Now, if we can just keep Bertel from putting any more big-eared auto show girls above the proverbial fold, we might all keep our jobs until tomorrow afternoon…

    You see? When I last time argued (posting the Smoking Tire Camaro SS review + lap on a tight racetrack) that there is no race circuit too small and a true sports car is capable of putting its power down well anywhere anytime, no one agreed. There comes a beautiful confirmation. The cars in the video are based on well acclaimed best handling vehicles known. Their common denominator? They can use all their horses in filmed conditions, not only a fraction of them.

    I didn't know you could run a Solstice through the cones that fast.

    Impressive driving, that Solstice was hauling!

    Ford has a 412 HP V-* for the Mustang. Why not put it into the Lincoln Town Car too? Doesn't it get better mileage than the old 2 valve 4.6. It would sure get more attention.
