    Here we go, folks, the last car in the Exotic Racing Series for Need for Speed SHIFT .   Originally conceived in 1984 as a development project between Honda and Pininfarina to build a mid-engine 2-liter V6 sports car, the Acura NSX didn’t hit showroom floors until 1990 and by then, everything had changed.   The final production NSX featured a...

  Well, we had a two-week Hot Lap because we, as in both the NFS marketing and community teams, were down in San Francisco. Due to this we… BLOG POST HI-JACK! There is no point in treating this week as a “normal” week because this week’s Hot Lap is ANYTHING but normal!! Haha! Based on last Week 19’s winner we have the Zonda R on Silverstone GP,...

But that didn’t mean that we didn’t have yet another close week of competition! The last two weeks’ winners were actually tied at one point, and then it was EAO2slow that won this week...

  At long last, we have a final four in the Need for Speed SHIFT tournament hosted by GGL Global Gaming , and it's looking like a full-on border battle, with two Canadians taking on two Americans for the ultimate title.   The stars and stripes - xsmd and URC whiplash - represent the Xbox 360 side, with those representing the maple leaf - Kopaszgeci and ...
