It's darn near impossible to overemphasize the impact that Carroll Shelby has had on the automotive world as we know it today.

Lotus rolls out new competition-spec Evora GTC

You might say the same for any number of automakers, but in this case it rings particularly true: Lotus wouldn't be Lotus without racing.

La-Z-Boy: The most comfortable way to travel

We don't know anything about this man or the chair he's driving. Yes, driving. We just know that he was apparently caught in China, doing a nice clip on the shoulder of a rather nice multi-lane road, in what looks like a custom sofa chair.
