The Chrysler Also Rises
Cuban Soul is a documentary about U.S. actor David Soul helping a group of Cubans restore writer Ernest Hemingway’s last car, a 1955 Chrysler New Yorker convertible. The long-lost Chrysler’s derelict condition and the U.S. embargo of auto parts (among other things) to the communist country make the situation highly problematic. Here’s the trailer for it. Check out: Soul Survivor.
Slippery slope
McLaren has released this spectacular video of a “race” between rally driver Rhys Millen in an MP4-12C Spider and beautiful snowboarding star Chanelle Sladics through snowy Loveland Pass in Colorado. Check out: Beauty and the Beast.
Biggest drift
On May 11, BMW Performance Driving Instructor Johan Schwartz will attempt to beat the Guinness Book of World Records record for the world's longest continuous drift – currently about 3.6 miles – on the skidpad at the driving school in a charity stunt to benefit BMW Pro-Am. Here’s the teaser. Check out: Taking a Spin.

Jiggle vision
