Recent Road & Track Features

Due to various technical issues (I was too busy goofing off in Malaysia to get some copy in to the editors) I'm not in the newest issue of Road&Track. I do, however, have a couple of features on the website.
First, a road (and track!) test of the stellar RenaultSport Megane RS265. This was a brilliant car and I feel humbled to have a chance to drive it around Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and the Sepang circuit.
Next, something rather morbid. Some time ago, I wrote a piece on Georgian drifter Giorgi Tevzadze in which I predicted his death. It never got published, possibly because it was a little too harsh on the man. As it happened, my prediction was correct, but Tevzadze died as a passenger, not a driver. My revamped piece is called Aimless Drifting. Car and Driver's Jim Meigs said, regarding the piece: "How can you not love a piece that references Samuel Johnson, David Hume AND Robert De Niro?" Exactly!
