How lucky are we – really – when, come to think of it – thanks to Dave, the consumate BARC Boy himself, we get shown around the Sonoma track and get to spy on Nazdar (his trusted 2002) and his own exploits. We even, get this, to hear about how he went on to finish …

A(nother) great edition of the Goodwood Revival!
Are we lucky or what? It was Revival time again this early September (apologies for the delay) and we got to go (again). Thanks to our local partners at Me & My Car, who had doubled down on the exhibition space, the Suixtil presence was even better than in the past – and, with the …

A Watkins Glen tragedy (of sort)…
This one came straight from Dave, our friend and US Ambassador and a BARC Boys at heart, and it is a sad story, with all the elements of a Greek (Suixtil) tragedy – well, some at least. But here we go, not about to shy away from the truth, we’ll bare it all – not …

Dave and Nazdar are back – at Sonoma!
In the incredible series, please take note that we do not define ourselves as “for the brave” by chance – it’s a Suixtil trait of character. Exhibit 1: take Dave, our US Ambassador for many moons now (and also, shall we mention it again, a BARC Boy of the first hour): 82 years young and …

Argentinean road trip – part 2 (Mar del Plata & Buenos Aires)
As you, the faithful, might remember, we took a slight detour (just another 10,000 km and a leap into a completely different time-zone) last months to go back to the sources of the Suixtil brand and, at the same time, some of the most glorious hours of motor racing. We’ve already discussed at some lengths …

Velocity at Sonoma and guess who’s invited?
That’s right, wait – how did you guess? – Dave, our 80 years young racer-friend, Ambassador and BARC Boy of legend (check it out to find our how those are made – and kept), keeper of the one and only Honey Bee (the MGA with a sting) made it there with Nazdar (the 2002 he …

…meanwhile, in the old country
As if one place ever had the monopoly on (Suixtil) good times – “que nenni” as they would say in France! Proof: in the UK, at the Castle Combe track (a circuit with at least 70 years history) the members of the Drum Brakes series, gathered under the auspices of the Griffiths-Haig trophy conceived by …

American Racing at its best!
September certainly has some great vintage racing – not high on neon lights and manhole covers but big on character, gorgeous machines and friendships – what else do you need. And, of course, the Labor Day weekend at Lime Rock was also the occasion to celebrate the centenary of the MG marque, with a splendid …

The Goodwood Revival – an amateur’s perspective
THE Revival, as we’ve all agreed to call it by now is certainly confronted to some hard challenges. On the one hand, there are all the previous editions that (lots) people have attended and of which they carry these blissful memories – these will be held as the benchmarks for the current edition. On the …

The Sebring dispatch
February, Florida – you know what’s coming, don’t you? It’s Sebring, of course – a race that has lots of meaning for us, given that – back in the year – all our heroes competed there and fought clean battles over the incredible tough course of this old military airport. It’d be interesting to check …
