We know Velocity fans are going to love these unique camera views of select cars at Mecum Indianapolis. We've had a crew cruising around the Auction capturing the cars getting ready for their big debut. Through the special player you'll be able to manipulate your view - closer, up and down, and all around. You'll be so close you can almost smell the exhaust. 

Be sure to come back each day as the team will be loading pictures of the cars you'll see in that day's auction. You can drool over these classic and rare cars to your heart's content while you tune in to the live event. We love bringing you the ringside seat and we'd love to hear how you liked the view!

Enjoy Mecum Indianapolis and click here for all the Interactive Video Cam action!

Each April 2, Autism Speaks celebrates Light It Up Blue along with the international autism community, in commemoration of the United Nations-sanctioned World Autism Awareness Day. Light It Up Blue is a unique global initiative that kicks-off Autism Awareness Month and helps raise awareness about autism. In honor of this historic day, many iconic landmarks, hotels, sporting venues, concert halls, museums, bridges and retail stores are among the hundreds of thousands of homes and communities that take part to Light It Up Blue.

Once again, Discovery Communications is honored to join forces with Austism Speaks to “Light It Up Blue” on April 2, World Autism Awareness Day.

Discovery Employees Will Be Greeted with Information About “Light It Up Blue” on April 2 and Pins to Support the Cause.

To start, One Discovery Place in Silver Spring, MD will turn blue tonight and tomorrow (joining the likes of the Empire State Building) to show our support. Additionally, viewers tuning into Animal Planet, Investigation Discovery, Discovery Fit & Health, Military Channel and Velocity will see PSAs supporting the cause in addition to special blue versions of the network logos. Meanwhile, online, you’ll see digital banners shining a light on World Autism Awareness Day on our websites and we’ll be spreading the word across social platforms.

If you’d like to join in, visit LightItUpBlue.org to learn more and pledge your support!

 

You Want New All Girl Garage Videos? Who Doesn't?

We love bringing you new videos, especially when they are full of information that helps you get under the hood and do a little DIY. 

Check out some new clips from season two of All Girl Garage as the girls cover everything from replacing a suspension (yes, you CAN do it) to attaching a spoiler. We won't even mind if you check out the best of season one - after all you will need to change your spark plugs at some point too and who better to teach you how?

Enjoy!

It’s pretty simple - when we can finally scrape together some extra cash to buy that completely insane new watch (you know the one that can go underwater or tell time in four different cities around the world), or get that glass pool table that makes you basement the place where everyone wants to hangout – we feel like it’s the holidays, our birthday and that we’ve leveled up to Ron Burgundy status by “Staying Classy.”
