One Lap of the Web: Rolls-Royce in Thailand, 130-mph lawn mowers and Formula One in Canada
Wed, 05 Jun 2013
We spend a lot of time on the Internet -- pretty much whenever we're not driving, writing about or working on cars. Since there's more out there than we'd ever be able to cover, here's our daily digest of car stuff on the Web you may not otherwise have heard about.
-- Check out some factoids about Formula One in Canada and how drivers have faired at Canadian tracks over time.
-- World War II gave birth to American sports-car culture, contends Alan Franklin at Petrolicious.
-- Rolls-Royce built a boutique shopping location in Bangkok, Thailand that allows customers to see, touch, smell and feel the optional extras they can choose from.
--The gents at Top Gear have devised a lawn mower capable of reaching 130 mph and hitting 0-60 mph in 4 seconds. We're guessing this thing won't be seeing grass duty any time soon.
