ROAD TESTAMENT: Bottom 5 Cars of 2010 Q1/Q2

It’s the most disliked Road Testament evahhhhhh, with JF and I reviewing our bottom 5 cars of the first half of 2010. It’s a 2-1 ratio Dislike-to-Like.

But, as The Dude said in The Big Lebowski, if you don’t like it…well…that’s just, like, your opinion…man.

Team Wu vs. Impersonation Laws On 2010 Bullrun Rally?!

Bill Wu is my kinda guy: creative, aggressive and a little nuts…but whoa, he’s really done it this time. Wu – veteran of the real Bullrun and winner of the 2010 Bullrun Reality TV show – is running what has to be the most comprehensively well-equipped rally car of all time in the 2010 Bullrun, which starts in my hometown Saturday morning at 0900hr.

And it looks just like a real Police car. An American Police car. In America.

Let’s be clear about what this means.

ROAD TESTAMENT: Top 5 Cars of 2010 Q1/Q2

It’s another controversial Road Testament, and JF & I argue – as usual – about the Top 5 Cars of the first half of 2010. As usual, the comments suggest I’m stoned, drunk and/or interrupt too much. Nope, it’s just me.

FYI, fans of Hawk & Animal will love this one.

Alex Roy Judging @ Greenwich Concours D'Elegance 2010? Yup.

Surreal, but true.  I’ve been invited to be a judge at the 2010 Greenwich Concours D’Elegance today and tomorrow in Connecticut’s gorgeous Roger Sherman Baldwin Park.  Who would possible think this is a good idea?  Thank Concours Chamberlain Michael Lindgren and Organizers Bruce & Genia Wennerstrom, the very same kind souls who invited me to join the venerable Madison Avenue Sports Car Club & Chowder Society two years ago.

My invitation is especially surreal, given Polizei 144B’s appearance at the 2008 Concours, and the Team’s performance that hot summer day.

Look for the bald guy in the white linen suit and straw hat. Or JF, Josh Vietze or my old co-pilot Michele Shapiro.

And if you know anything about vintage cars, come walk with us and share your opinion, because I don’t. Not really. Maybe. I think.

ROAD TESTAMENT: Ferrari. Past. Future.

JF and I discuss the direction Ferrari should go, the path they’ve taken in the past, and some history behind the direction they have taken to date. On The Road Testament.

ROAD TESTAMENT: Alex Roy Talks Over JF Whilst Discussing Best Tuner Engine Transplants

The Road Testament moves outdoors, JF suggests we talk about tuners & best engine transplants, and, as usual, I rant, rave and talk over him without doing enough research.

Next week? We move to the studio, up the production values, and I do some real prep.

But I’m still waiting for someone to invite me to ride a motorized unicycle.

Polizei Racing Adds Peter Ludwig to Homestead Grand-Am Race Roster!

Polizei 144 Racing is delighted to add a NEW co-driver to our roster…and I’m talking about a character as big as yours truly, yet quite the opposite, for I’m talking about Master Pilot Peter Ludwig (above right).  Other than his huge personality and brobdignian modesty, Herr Ludwig is my opposite in almost every way: winner of numerous races in multiple series (including Koni Challenge), expert at both short distance and endurance racing.

On behalf of Polizei Racing Captain Rene Villeneuve, Master Pilot Henri Richard, El Jefe Liz Moses and everyone at Polizei HQ, it’s truly a delight to have Herr Ludwig join the TRG/Polizei 63 entry in this weekend’s Rolex Grand Am race in Homestead, Florida…

More to follow.
