HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK |
||||||
While the east coast is once again getting hammered by terrible weather, and the south tries to figure out why nature is including it in its terrible joke on nice people, we here in California are enjoying sunny skies, mild weather and the Sacramento Autorama this weekend! Sorry folks! To make up for the unfairness of it all, we bring you the latest from the NHRA Winternationals from Pomona, a stolen car, and some great garage shots and field finds! Tex also offers some of his thoughts on the intersection of business and media in the wake of more layoffs in the automotive media world. We hope everyone is staying safe and warm and dreaming of summer days and car shows to come. Have story suggestions or shows to share? Email us at [email protected]! | ||||||
