It was yet another rich week for filming fast and interesting metal. Translogic brought us the tale of the Rocket Mobility Tomahawk, perhaps the coolest wheelchair you’ve ever seen. We raced around the Great White North in a Nissan racecar, while virtually exploring the tracks and tricks of the new Project CARS video game. Finally, we got the fastest-ever Range Rover just a tiny bit dirty on a mild off-roading course (expect some more stirring footage of the SVR, next week).

Of course the most important video event of the week was the debut of Hank the Autodog. We love that little guy. Mix up a batch of extra-spicy bloody marys, kick back, and watch some cars (and dogs in cars).

Here’s a look at what we drove this week:


Enjoy your weekend!
