Team Toyo has been burning rubber and clinching victories like nobody's business! First, let's tip our helmets to Bryce Menzies, the driving dynamo behind this recent triumph. Menzies and his trusty steed, the #7 Red Bull / Toyo Tires / KMC Wheels AWD Mason Motorsports Trophy Truck, kicked off their Baja adventure from the sixth position. Now, if you've ever followed off-road racing, you'll know that starting sixth is like being handed a challenge straight from the racing gods themselves.

Back in the 1960s, Toyota was looking to break the domination of Western luxury brands in the Japanese domestic chauffeur-driven car market. The Century was the result in 1967, and has been favoured by captains of industry in the Land of the Rising Sun ever since, powered initially by a V8, then a V12 for the second generation, and a hybrid V8 for the third generation. They were all sedans too. Enter the fourth generation Toyota Century in 2023. Code-named G70, this looks like Japan's answer to the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. However, it still embodies

This current seventh-generation RZ34 Fairlady Z has been around since 2022, and Nissan has freshened things up with the 2024 model year. Let’s kick things off with some spice. The Fairlady Z NISMO’s front grille, front and rear bumpers, fender mouldings, side sill protectors, rear spoiler, and rear LED fog lamps are NISMO exclusive and serve to increase downforce while improving aerodynamic performance. The front grille mesh, which is also used in the 2024 Nissan GT-R, has a honeycomb design with low airflow resistance and works with the wind-skimming air guide slope to maximize cooling efficiency. The new 19-inch forged aluminium glossy black rims offer better rigidity and weight reduction despite increased rim width.

This is the 4th iteration of Nissan’s flagship SUV, if you can believe it. It started off back in 2001 as a cheap and chunky pseudo 4x4, a contender in the vanguard of ‘soft-roaders’ that included big players like the Toyota RAV4 and Mitsubishi Outlander. Like those two examples, the X-Trail has subtly poshed-up and polished out its rough edges over the years. With seven seats and more fuel-sipping technology thanks to Nissan’s quirky e-POWER powertrain, is that enough to give it the edge over its fierce SUV competition? Sleek and refined

It’s beginning to feel like the world has forgotten how to make anything but SUVs these days, and Maserati is actually fairly late to the game with its contender. Yes, they did launch the Levante back in 2016, but lacklustre sales didn’t make it a case-closed preposition. So back to the drawing board they went, and out came the Grecale - a mid-sized, luxury SUV that sits a tier below the larger Levante. Think Porsche Macan, Alfa Romeo Stelvio kinda frequency. The Grecale, as Maserati calls it, is intended to be a ‘global’ car that’s designed to excel in lots of different markets without significant over-engineering.

However, despite securing P2 and P5 in both race grid-setting sessions respectively, she was later classified P8 in Q1 and P13 in Q2 due to post-session lap time deletions caused by track limit infringements.
