Fast Fridays - Just Another Friday Night in Kansas

By Pablo Mazlumian

Cars, cars and more cool cars...in Kansas?  Coastal American residents likely wouldn't expect to see such an assortment of muscle cars and exotics in the KC suburb of Overland Park, Kansas.  Shoot, it's adjacent to a town called Prairie Village.  But when spring arrives, a slew of local enthusiasts get together every other Friday to cruise and talk shop.

By Justin Banner

Welcome to the Motovicity Ticket to Ride Spotlight, where we'll give a brief look into the products going in the Ticket to Ride Scion FR-S and Ford Mustang that will be given away by Motovicity. We'll first start with some modern muscle; the 2013 Ford Mustang GT. The basic engine upgrade most Mustang enthusiasts will target are the exhaust manifolds as they are not only a great way to unleash some ponies from under the hood, but they can also brighten up the engine bay.

TESTED: Olsbergs MSE SuperCar Lites

By Efrian Olivares

Our previous look under the hood of the Olsbergs MSE SuperCar Lites car came at the open test held by Global RallyCross in Lake Elsinore, California. Drivers from any discipline were invited to submit an application to drive the car, from which GRC selected drivers to participate.

Thankfully, two friends of MotoIQ were selected to drive the car – Time Attack driver Mike Bonanni and Formula Drift driver Kyle Mohan – and ended up in the same test session on a cold Friday morning. You could say that both drivers come from very different driving backgrounds, and you would be correct.

Nerd's Eye View - Olsbergs MSE SuperCar Lites

By Efrain Olivares

The cars of the Global Rally Cross series – the fleet of Ford Fiestas, a few Subaru STI’s, a couple of Saab’s, and a Dodge Dart – are no doubt some of the wildest racing machinery that you can possibly see in North America. The racing they produce is unreal, with these compact and subcompact cars banging fenders and flying through the air.  However, to call up Olsbergs MSE and get into one of those Fiestas presents a financial challenge for most people. Enter the SuperCar Lites.

Project Mustang 5.0, Part II: Controlling Body Roll with Whiteline

By Vince Illi

Earlier this year, I dramatically improved Project Mustang 5.0's handling and added a degree of adjustability by installing Steeda springs, Koni adjustable dampers, and caster/camber plates from Maximum Motorsports.  The result was a well-balanced chassis with neutral handling.  There was, however, still a bit of body roll when taking very fast corners.
