Sit back, relax and enjoy some great footage captured from the inside of a classic Shelby/AC Cobra as it goes around the track at Belgium’s Circuit Francorchamps. The footage was shot to promote the Peter Auto SPA Classic, which includes a special starting grid just for 1960’s endurance racing.

Hop aboard for the ride of your life, as Nissan factory driver Harry Tincknell takes us around the track in the NISMO LMP1 car that will be raced at Le Mans 2015. The Nissan LMP1 GT-R LM NISMO might be a front-wheel drive car, but this experimental ride certainly seems up to the task.

If you thought climbing Pikes Peak was scary, hold on to your seats for this dizzying on-board footage from Robert Kubica and Maciek Szczepaniak’s Ford Fiesta RS during the Monte-Carlo Rallye for the 2015 FIA World Rally Championship.

It’s not often that you get to see a car that can also fly like an airplane. Not to be confused with the 1970s Ford car of the same name, the Maverick is a combination street-legal car and airplane built by AEI.

I’ve always wanted to drive a classic grand prix race car, but am convinced I’ll destroy the transmission or end up spinning it off the road. For now, I’m leaving the task up to the professionals. 

Take an amazing ride in an F1 race car, as driver Giedo van der Garde takes us on a breakneck journey through Rotterdam in the Netherlands, driving for the Caterham F1 team. Along the way, Giedo shows off with some epic donuts and smokes some tires.

Professional racecar driver Gunnar Jeannette has the privilege of racing on tracks all around the world. To wrap up his year, he released this 18-minute-long compilation video, featuring in-car and on-car footage from his many laps.

The Spec E30 race class is made up of bare-bones BMW 325is made between 1987 and 1991 – all spec’d out pretty much identically. In this on-board video from the NASA Spec E30 Eastern States Championship, driver Sandro Espinosa ended up with a 39th place starting position due to a disqualification during a pre-race inspection.

The 2014 Red Bull Global RallyCross series just wrapped up in Las Vegas this past week. While he and his Hyundai Veloster Turbo ended up with a did-not-finish during the race, driver Rhys Millen did manage to provide a first-person tour of the course for GoPro prior to the event kicking off.

Rally racing can be a treacherous thing. Some of the courses are so twisty and dangerous that it’s hard to believe that anyone can safely drive the courses without crashing. The Gribun Rocks Stage 9 at Scotland’s Mull Rally is one such course.

I’ve seen tons of drifting footage over the years, but this is definitely the first time I’ve seen drifting captured from the top of the car and spinning freely around the car as it corners. Using a device called the RotoR – a swiveling dual camera mount and a pair of GoPro cameras, they were able to capture this cool footage of a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution doing what it does best, as it slides around corners on snow and ice.

While there have been numerous kit cars which mimic the classic Lancia Stratos, there’s nothing quite like an original. In this clip from the object of my envy Marchettino, he managed to score a ride in a beautiful candy apple red Stratos HF.

Built adjacent to the site of the Sochi Olympics, the Sochi Autodrom Grand Prix circuit had yet to be driven by a Formula One driver – until now. In this footage captured by Infiniti, F1 driver Sebastien Vettel puts a Q50 Hybrid to the test on the newly-built track.

Rain on the ground can definitely give you more distance and cooler tires when drifting, but can also make it much more challenging to control your car. But a little rain doesn’t dissuade a drifter as skilled as Alexi from Noriyaro.com,

Sit back and drink in the exhaust notes for the next 15 minutes, and go for a thrilling ride along with Porsche driver Pat Long in a vintage Porsche 911 S as he tears it up on the challenging Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway.
