THE NISSAN GT-R is wowing both fans and naysayers alike with its super-quick laps of the Nurburgring - most recently pulling a 7 minute 26.7 second lap - and its victory in the 2009 World Performance Car of the Year awards back in April.

LESS THAN A DAY after we first saw leaked pictures of what many are saying is the highly-anticipated RWD Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2, a mysterious Gallardo prototype has been spotted undergoing trials at the Nurburgring.

FRESH IMAGES of an unidentified Lamborghini Gallardo variant have been circulating the web, prompting many to speculate that they may be the first shots of the rumoured rear-wheel-drive Gallardo LP550-2.

ENGLAND MAY HAVE the speedy Caparo T1, but now Kiwi manufacturer Hulme has introduced the Hulme CanAm to the roads and tracks of New Zealand, and it’s no slouch.

WE FIRST HEARD about the Ariel Atom 500 back in March last year, and now the bonker Brits at Ariel have released details on its most powerful road-legal (in the UK, at least) weapon yet.

WORD AROUND THE traps is that Lotus’ upcoming Esprit successor may come in V10 trim, with the Lexus LF-A’s bent-ten speculated to be the powerplant of choice.

IT SAYS A LOT about a company when its CEO slides behind the wheel of one of its race cars for a bit of wheel-to-wheel action. It says even more when the CEO helps pilot that car to victory in the world’s most grueling endurance race.
Dr Ulrich Bez, the dynamic leader of one of Britain’s [...]
A PATENT LODGED by Ferrari suggests the Italian automaker may be working on bringing a hybrid powertrain to market, which would most certainly be a first for a road-going supercar.

There’s an old adage in fighter-pilot circles that goes along the lines of: “You don’t fly the ‘A’ model of anything”.
