Movie Review: Ford vs. Ferrari
I have decided to do another movie review to switch things up again. This week, Ford vs Ferrari will be under review, and as a person who actually watched this movie I have to say, personally I thought it was really good. Of course its no Fast and Furious series or Speed, but nonetheless, it still managed a pretty good rating and made a decent amount of money at the box office. And with big names like Christian Bale and Matt Damon in the leading roles, you know this will be a movie to remember. Movie Summary This movie, although fictitious at some points, took the real story of Enzo…

In Loving Memory – Ralph “Dale” Earnhardt Senior
February 18, 2001 would go on to mean more to Dale Earnhardt’s family than he would ever know. Not only was it the day of the biggest race of the year, one of which his son was part of, it was also the last day he would be seen alive. ~ Known as the fearless “intimidator”, Earndhardt lived up to his nickname, even in his last minutes of being alive. He was racing in a three man team, acting as the rear gunner for his teammates in an attempt to block any other contenders from securing the win. Lap 3 was a success but it was Lap 4 that would…

Drive Festival 2023
Last weekend (Sept 8-10) Drive Festival was held at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, and although it was quite popular I still feel like a feature post would boost next years’ attendance. 2023 marked 3 years for this event, so still quite new out there, but that didn’t stop motorheads alike from attending. Drive Festival is the ultimate car show for gearheads in Canada, so it’s no surprise that new car technology and test drive opportunities are featured on the three test tracks at this event. In 2021, when the event was held from Sept 10-12, Drive Festival made history. 17,000 people attended and this helped to make Drive Festival…
