#JOM. You’ll know the saying and if you don’t then I’m talking about the #JoyOfMachine. Maybe you know it as a hashtag that will deliver you an incredible array of images? What it sums up for us is our undying love of cars, the culture that surrounds them and the feeling that gives us. But …

Rowbike is a hybrid fitness/transport machine that combines a bicycle and a rowing machine. It offers a full body workout.
It’s always fun to see the lighthearted side of global car culture. And when, at the same time, you can also show what can be achieved at the extreme end of the customising spectrum, well, that leads to one of the most unique feature car – uh, truck – subjects of this year. And it’s hot …
MX5 keeping it neat.
The name of the 70th LUGNuts build challenge is Redo And Redemption. The idea is to take a stupid, shameful, embarrassing old creation, redo it better, and make the Universe right again. I chose the VW dragbus originally built in 2006 and inspired by a popular Hotwheels design. Here is the link to my shameful, dirty, sinful secret in all its dark, blurred photo, no talent havin’ glory. What the heck was I thinking?! But now with new parts, a more coherent color scheme, better photo techniques, and several more years of building skill, I have saved the Universe from certain doom. We can now begin the long path toward healing and forgiveness. Isn’t that what they say in Alcoholics Anonymous? Anyway, with the number 70 blazed on the sides to denote the 70th challenge, I’m quite proud of the new design. I think I have atoned for my sins and I hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive me. How about a group hug?
Shot of the chassis bottom. The rear axle is much beefier than the original design, which was only 1 stud wide. The new axle is 2 studs wide (or thick) and has much more strength.
If there's an unmodified R32 Skyline GT-R in existence, we're yet to see it. And so to today's creation, which has also cast OEM originality aside in order to create something rather more special. Which does mean it features a few non-LEGO parts, but seeing is the real car upon which it's based features a…
I’ve got a confession to make – I’m kind of burnt out on drifting. Or at least I was burnt out on drifting… That was until I spent a day recently hanging out at Fuji Speedway Drift Park with some of Japan’s coolest amateur drifters and their badass machines. I’m not sure whether it’s because my …
Mick Ackermann grew up in Europe, where he could always be found in nearby mechanics' shops, handing them tools and learning everything he could. He spent years working on street mods and drift cars, then founded Ackermann Cycle Performance (ACP Customs) in 2011, building among other machines this i
Here at Speedhunters, we’re lucky enough to witness a vast range of automotive goodness. We wade our way bravely through the breadth of the spectrum, getting singed by flaming race cars, showered by tyre rubber by drift machines and deafened by drag monsters. But there’s the other end of the range too. At this end …
There's always something new and intriguing left sitting on the deck whenever Local Motors news washes over the Autoblog transom. Lest you think the company only deals in wild off-road tackle like the Rally Fighter, 'tis not the case: it sells the SoulArc skateboard and the Laser Bike Lane Light, the crowd-sourced motorcycle design is now for sale. It also just successfully funded the Local Motors Cruiser, a motorized bicycle. This time, we get the spirit of Big Wheels and Green Machines past in a drift trike for adults with the crowd-sourced name Verrado. At the end of the BMX fork up front is a 20-inch mag wheel, at the back are two go-kart wheels wrapped in plastic sleeves for easy oversteer.
You didn’t think we’d run our Blower Bash theme without including some of your supercharged rides now, did you? This month we received a fantastic selection of supercharged machines from around the world to share – everything from boosted daily drivers, to featherweight track weapons and dedicated drift monsters. Who knows, perhaps one of these cars might inspire you …
