Welcome to the Jalopnik , where we let you know what’s going on in the world of racing, where you can see it, and where you can talk about it all in one convenient place. Where else would you want to spend your weekend?

Happy weekend, everyone. Hopefully you’ve survived another work week and are ready to sit back and watch some racing, because plenty is on the schedule over the next two days.

NASCAR once again has a triple-header race weekend planned—this time, at Atlanta Motor Speedway. The Camping World Truck Series and Xfinity Series will both run on Saturday, with the Sprint Cup Series headlining the Sunday show. Denny Hamlin’s essentially locks him into , and any driver who does the same this weekend—if it’s not Hamlin again—will punch the same ticket.

With an unpredictable pass and a finish that took it right to the checkered flag, Denny Hamlin took

Georgia is a bustling place on Saturday, as Monster Energy Supercross will be just under an hour away from the NASCAR events at the Georgia Dome. The final live event of the weekend, NHRA, will be several states away in Arizona. This will be the first weekend NHRA is on track since its Feb. 14 season opener, which wasn’t without a scare—a 69-year-old Funny Car competitor when his parachutes failed to deploy.

Racing's Best/Worst Idea Took 12 Jaguar XJ220s and Went Downhill From There
Racing's Best/Worst Idea Took 12 Jaguar XJ220s and Went Downhill From There
Think of your dream, no-holds-barred, greatest racing series idea. It might involve drivers like Mario Andretti, Parnelli Jones, and Paul Newman for a little star power. Maybe a fleet of Jaguar XJ220s, which all get destroyed in huge crashes. Then you put it on TV. It was absurd and great...

I Have a New Favorite Porsche
I Have a New Favorite Porsche
My automotive internet seems to have been slightly obsessed with builds as of late, in which people struggle to put together their ultimate dream car. That’s fine, sure, but what’s better than a perfectly built car is a perfectly driven one. Watch now the Rally Belga team’s 1984 Porsche 911...

When Even the Soviet Union Got Into Group B
When Even the Soviet Union Got Into Group B
Group B’s popularity wasn’t just apparent from the huge crowds filling every stage. It was apparent from who was getting involved. Sure, there were some oddballs like Ferrari and a Citroen BX, but there was one that should’ve been ideologically opposed to the whole idea as an example of decadent...

This Ugly Hatchback Is One Of The Best-Sounding Cars Ever
I’ve been hearing a lot of griping about how the new Ford GT doesn’t have a V8, and that V6s are never cool, can never be cool, have never been cool. Well, listen to the unholy roar of this ugly little British hatchback and think again. This is the MG...

The Audi Quattro Wasn't Invincible
The Audi Quattro Wasn't Invincible
The original was a revolutionary car, instantly defeating all of the establishment of the rallying world and instantly resetting everyone’s watch to all-wheel drive. At least that’s how we remember it. The reality was a little different. The Quattro established that sending power to all four wheels was a huge...

When OnStar Thinks You've Crashed As You're Whipping a Corvette ZR1 Around the Track
When OnStar Thinks You've Crashed As You're Whipping a Corvette ZR1 Around the Track
The race car driver Andy Pilgrim has long been associated with GM’s most powerful offerings, driving C5 Corvettes for Chevy in the early aughts, later moving on to CTS-Vs for the Cadillac factory team. All of which is to say this isn’t his first rodeo, though it might be the...
