But Shelby American and Nelson Racing Engines have teamed up to produce a twin-turbo Ford Shelby GT500 that pumps out over 1,000-rwhp. The Code Red GT500 is still in a prototype phase, but we wouldn’t be surprised if Shelby offers the package…
Tow Truck Fail: Chevy Captiva Tows-Away Tow Truck [video]
Perhaps the lesson here is that when towing a vehicle you should have the keys, or perhaps put the truck on a flat bed. Or maybe the lesson is that you should use a large and heavy vehicle that won’t be out-muscled by the vehicle being towed. Regardless, this tow truck driver in Shanghai found…
Lexus Gets Aggressive With New RX350 Ads [Video]
Lately we’ve seen more than a few creative commercials from Lexus and this latest one doesn’t disappoint.

AMS Nissan GT-R Hits New Quarter Mile Record: 9.192 @ 163.12-mph
The reality of a fully streetable 8-second Nissan GT-R just got a whole lot closer. AMS took their Alpha 10 GT-R demo car back to the quarter mile after their 9.33 pass to lay down an amazing 9.192 @ 163.12 mph track time. Now obviously going from 9.33 to 9.192 is easier than going from…

Hennessey Venom GT to Debut at the 2010 SEMA Show
Now if you were just begging for a reason to head over to Las Vegas next week for the SEMA Show, and just really couldn’t find yourself one, we understand. Maybe modified versions of the Honda CR-Z, Chevy Camaro, Ford Mustangs and Hyundai Equus, are just not your thing. If you’re going to have to…

Drift With the SuperCars at Monticello Motor Club [video]
Have you ever seen a Nissan 350Z drifting? Sure, but what about a Cadillac CTS-V, Porsche GT3 RS, Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black Series or even a Ferrari 575 Maranello?

Ferrari 458 Challenge Spied Testing at Monza [video]
We’ve already seen video of Ferrari‘s new 458 Challenge race car testing on the track, but it’s not something that gets old quickly.

Switzer Performance R1K Nissan GT-R Fastest, But Not Quickest: 9.38 @ 155.29-MPH
Switzer Performance announced their Nissan GT-R R1K kit earlier last month, claiming 1,005-awhp through their custom package sporting a pair of Garrett watercooled turbochargers and C16 fuel. And it seems with AMS and SP Engineering all scooping around the 1,000-awhp range, we knew the competition would heat up once these cars hit the actual track…
1988 288 GTO Becomes World’s Fastest Ferrari At 275.4-MPH
It’s official, having a twin turbo Ferrari Enzo that can hit 238-mph is no longer a big deal.

This makes it the World’s Fastest Ferrari and the World’s…

Bugatti Veyron Fender Bender Caught on Video
As the story goes, a potential Bugatti Veyron owner wanted to take his (not so) future car out on a test drive.

Chevy Nova Drives 1,200 Miles, Runs 6-Second Pass to Conquer Hot Rod Magazine Drag Week
One of our biggest gripes with so-called ‘street’ drag racing classes are that the cars aren’t really streetable. In the loosest of sense, the rules are geared towards cars that could be put on the street (whether it requires a catalytic converter or full interior or whatever the case is). Nine times out of ten,…
South Park Doing NASCAR Parody For Season Premiere
