| Kia 200: Two in a row for Matt Plumb, Nick Longhi, Rum Bum Racing Posted: 29 Apr 2012 06:48 AM PDT ONEIGHTURBO 
A post-qualifying penalty took away a pole position from Nick Longhi and co-driver Matt Plumb on Friday but the No. 13 Rum Bum Racing Porsche Carrera driving duo would not be denied again in Saturday's GRAND-AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge Kia 200 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. The penalty sent Longhi to the rear of the 29-car Grand Sport (GS) class grid, but he carved his way through the field and comfortably into the top five by the end of his driving stint. Plumb picked up right where Longhi left off and finally found his way to the lead on Lap 23 of the 82-lap race. 
Plumb maintained the lead through a number of restarts and was never challenged en route a 2.031-second victory over David Empringham. It was the second consecutive victory for Plumb and Longhi, who also won last month at Barber Motorsports Park. "It was a challenging day," Plumb said. "We started in the back and had a rules infraction with our rear wing. The good news is that the Speedway has a lot of passing zones and we were blessed with a lot of rain to start with. These last two weekends, we keep getting the most incredible breaks that go our way." 
Empringham finished second in GS alongside co-driver John Farano in the No. 83 BGB Motorsports Porsche Carrera followed by Bret Spaude and Andrew Aquilante in the No. 35 Subaru of America Subaru WRX-STI. Plumb and Longhi lead co-drivers Charles Putman and Charles Espenlaub – who finished sixth in the Kia 200 – by 10 points, 93-83, after three of 10 races.

Hey guys, Jon here again. After amazing and thrilling the international crowds on the KTM Duke 125, Rok Bagoros has now taken delivery of what is his first ever big bike and now has to work on converting his tricks to suit the more powerful machine. Check it out.
Rok claims that there’s a big difference between the two bikes. Seeing as how the 690 has five times more power then the Duke 125 and any mistake can result in a crash, we’d tend to agree.
The bike has amazing power but Rok assures that he is slowly getting it under control.

| The Brand-New $3,000 Motorcycle Posted: 22 Apr 2012 10:00 PM PDT |
HI guys, at just $3,195, both the Cleveland CycleWerks Misfit cafe racer and the Heist bobber massively undercut every other motorcycle out there. And at just 250cc, they’re also smaller than most bikes. Bargain or bogus? Check it out and you decide.
Looks pretty solid to me.

| Justin Bieber Buys a Ducati 848 EVO Posted: 20 Apr 2012 10:00 PM PDT |
Hey guys, Jon here again. I guess the coolness of riding a motorcycle finally trickled down to the least masculine kid on the planet. Singer Justin Bieber is hoping to gain a motorcycle license after buying himself a luxury superbike.
The teenage pop star, who already has a collection of fast cars, including a Cadillac custom built for him by West Coast Customs, has treated himself to a $20,000 Ducati 848 EVO, which was delivered to him on Thursday.
The 18 year old is not yet licensed to ride the bike on the roads, but he is working towards gaining the qualification.
Hit us up, when you hit the road on two wheels Justin. Bring Selena…

| New Vyrus 986 M2 Pictures Posted: 19 Apr 2012 10:00 PM PDT |
Hey, what’s going on guys? These are the first photos of the road-legal version of the Vyrus 986 M2.
Originally designed to compete in Moto2, the hub-center-steered bike fits a Honda CBR600RR motor in a prototype, omega-frame chassis. If that's not weird enough, the rear shock is mounted transverse and the radiator lies under the engine.
Looks cool? Well, it’s yours for just a mere 40 large.

| March 2012 IPM Girl of the Month Angela Posted: 17 Apr 2012 10:00 PM PDT |
Hello everyone, Paul here again today to introduce you to last month’s IPM Girl of the Month Angela Salinas. We apologize for the delay, but some things are worth waiting for. So people say.
Angela is a native of South San Francisco and is currently an undergraduate at San Francisco State University. Unlike most of our models, but like some of them, Angela is a motorcyclist herself. You can see her riding a 2011 Honda CBR250R in and around the City.
A little known fact about Angela is that this girl can bake. She is a graduate of the California Culinary Academy. She has since moved on to sales at a local Macy’s.
Say hello if you see her around. Wave. Just don’t ask her for a cookie.
Be sure to check out all of the raw, unedited behind the scenes shots of her shoot HERE.
