Brock Yates is back in the blogosphere
That's right people, the original gonzo-automotive journalist is back in the saddle, and judging by his first post on the One Lap website, he's still full of all the piss and vinegar we've come to expect. Hopefully, Yates' Engines With Attitude blog gives regular updates and editorials from its incredibly un-PC author, providing those of us with a thick skin and a disturbed sense of humor some gasoline-fueled thoughts for the day. His first rabid rambling is online and it's worth a read if you're a fan of the man and his ability to simultaneously irritate and amuse. Welcome back to the 21st century Mr. Yates! We anxiously await your next posting.Thanks for the tip, Horst.

Good to see one of my automotive heros is still alive and kicking.

Brock Yates is the man, a hero of mine.
Just watched Cannonball run again, it's still great.

A couple of months ago he said he was going to be writing a weekly piece for TTAC, he did one piece and that was it, I wonder what happened?

Saw Brock speak at a car event before. Hearing the events from the horse's mouth could not have been better. Them doing the run in an ambulance was crazy!

If Brock can translate his writing style into TV personality, he just may be the Jeremy Clarkson equivalent for Top Gear US.
I know that ship has almost sunk before it set sail, just thinking out loud.
