Biggest of the big dogs
Electronics mogul Jon Shirley, collector of many of the world’s greatest sports and racing cars, is profiled along with lots of photos by Sports Car Digest. Check out: Way Over the Top.

No substitute
Our story this week about the world-beating Porsche 904/6 got my appetite whetted for some more history from Stuttgart, so here’s the impressive website for the recently opened Porsche Museum. Check out: Rear Power.

Unique antiques
If you dig old cars, then you must be tuned in to the Antique Automobile Club of America, the premiere organization for the old-car hobby. Here’s the website, complete with lots of photos and events, plus plenty of solid information. Check out: Old Cars Rule.

The big look
This obsessive guy has compiled an amazingly informative automotive website with articles, videos, stats and figures, even audio. Well worth checking out. You might even learn something. Check out: All You Need to Know.

Two-wheeled wackiness
Pedal your way through this photo gallery of some of the strangest bicycles on the planet. Check out: Ride This.

One-wheeled wackiness
I just stumbled on this professional video of inventor/biker Kerry McLean and his amazing Monocycle. Must be seen to believe. Check out: On a Roll.

Babes n’ donuts
Something very sick about this sexy video that, somehow, is designed to makes you want to buy a Scion iQ. Although, actual IQ seems to be severely lacking. Check out: Making a Mess.
