The Driver Suit Blog-The Final Jack Beckman Infinite Hero Challenge Column

By David G. Firestone I’ve discussed Jack Beckman on The Driver Suit Blog many times. He is a great driver, he connects with the fans, and he was kind enough to grant me an interview last year.

The Driver Suit Blog-Wheel Reviews-Kid Auto Races at Venice-1914

By David G. Firestone What can be said about Charlie Chaplain that hasn’t already been said. The man was a legend in silent film, with his trademark character known as “The Tramp.” He was a man who knew comedy, and who could attract an audience to a cinema like few before or since. Chaplain comedies […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Wheel Reviews-The Speed King-1913
