The Amelia is one of the highlights of the classic-car enthusiast’ year, with so many happenings that it is quite hard to just keep-up. Lucky for those of you who could not make the trip, Mariano (he of Suixtil USA fame) managed the journey along with Kobus (the ice-drifter, no less) and – aside from …

The Goodwood Revival through the eyes of a pro…
This is as much an exercise in psychology and science – investigating the “too much of a great thing” paradigm – as it is an homage to our friend (and, of course, German Ambassador) Günter. He manages to capture both the essence of an event as special as the Revival without losing any of the …
