TOP MUSCLE CARS

SECOND FASTEST CAR IN WORLD

We received a batch of muscle cars from Carrera to test out. I decided to see how they stack up on plastic and wood tracks, so I enlisted the help of my buddy Reckless Racer to put these cars through their paces. First, we ran them on his 75' Sport track. Later, the cars were raced on a 135' Ogilvie wood track with copper braid. We were interested to see how the cars ran with and without magnatraction.The fastest on Sport tracke was the Fast and Furious Mustang. This car lapped our Sport test track in 7.35s. This Mustang features a new chassis which is different from the yellow Mustang in this test. It would be a good challenger against a Scalextric Mustang or Camaro. It lapped the Ogilvie wood track in 10.4s, or fourth fastest. The Mustang also features working headlights and taillights. The headlights are of the blueish "xenon" LED variety. There's some spill through the bodywork of this car, but the lights are certainly bright enough to drive the car in the dark with.The second fastest-car on Sport was this black Dodge Charger with pimpin' spinner wheels. I have to admit that this car kinda grew on me. The red stripe across the rear flank of the car is a nice touch. This Charger lapped the Sport test track in 7.43s and was second-fastest on the Ogilvie at 9.9s. The long wheelbase made for a controllable car on the wood track.Third fastest on the Sport track was the old-school Dodge Charger street car. I love the look of the wheels on this car as they're not too shiny. The yellow Charger lapped our mag track in 7.63s and was a respectable third on the Ogilvie track, lapping it in 10.0s.Fourth fastest car on the mag track was the Plymouth Superbird, lapping it at 7.65 seconds. On the Ogilvie, this car was slowest with a lap time of 10.5 s. The top-heavy nature of the Carrera muscle cars made them difficult to push too hard in the curves. The rear wing is easily detachable on this model so it's not likely to get damaged if the car is raced.Fifth fastest on the Sport track, but quickest around the Ogilvie was this Shelby Mustang. It lapped the mag track in 7.82s, almost half a second slower than the Fast and Furious Mustang. On the wood track it was half a second clear of the field lapping at 9.4s.Slowest on the Sport, and second slowest on the Ogilvie, the pimpin' Pontiac GTO brought up the rear. The Goat managed 8.08s on the mag track and 10.4s on the wood. The metallic red paint on this car was beautiful and really set off the chrome.All of these cars were very smooth runners right out of the box. They're geared for better braking than previous Carrera muscle car releases, and are certainly stuck down enough for those who like to race magnet cars. The stock motor had enough grunt to really get these cars motoring down the long straights of our test tracks. It was a lot of fun trading paint with Reckless Racer in order to establish our test times. The longer wheelbase cars could be made to step out on the Sport track when pushed hard.If you're more likely to run these cars on a wood track then these are not a bad choice. All of the cars featured a very smooth drivetrain with concentric wheels, and grippy enough stock tires. I'm sure that with a bit of lead placement the tippy nature of these cars can be tamed for non-magnet racers. While the cars are heavy and certainly drive that way, it's what you'd expect from these classic examples of American iron.

FAST CAR

Alright, i just happened to come across this car’s specifications. Barabus Sportscars, a specialty engine and vehicle manufacturer has created the most powerful supercar. The Barabus TKR produces an exotic 1005 HorsePower and can go from Zero to 60 mph in just 1.67 seconds. What’s even more interesting is that the car manufacturer says that this car has a top speed of 270 mph. No kidding, but this does make Barabus TKR the world’s fastest beast on road. Why it’s top speed is 20mph more than Bugatti Veyron, which i think was the fastest car till now.
Power comes from a 6.0 liter V8 twin-turbocharged with dual intercoolers. The car has a full carbon fibre body and chassis. Further details remain sparse, but the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is £360,000 (668000$). Worldwide volume is projected to be 300-400 cars over the estimated three-year production run. Arghhh… That’s it…
This is how the beast looks like:

FASTEST CAR

As we all know, gas prices continue to skyrocket and the economy is sputtering. down. For people who have the “need for speed”, the only thing that matters is going extremely fast down the road.
Now if you’re looking a fast car that you can also haul 6 people, or store lots of groceries, you’re out of luck “speed racer.” These cars are built for speed and looks, and not much else.
For example, the French-made Bugatti Veyron races from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and effortlessly cruises to a top speed of 253 mph.
Tom duPont, who’s the publisher of duPont Registry, a gallery of fine automobiles, cautions that superfast cars “aren’t for the faint of heart financially or physically.”

THE FASTEST CAR

This is the new Fastest street leagal car in the whole world, stock, it has 1183 horses and can hit speeds up to 273 mph this izz the hottes fastest car it blew the lambo out of the water

Suzuki Swift X Concept

Rate this News:
Do you remember the Suzuki Swift Sport test drive that we made a couple weeks ago(3rd page of the news)? If not you should stick around more often ! Well, to make it short it left disappointed about the performances but satisfied with the design.What was even more disappointing is the fact that Suzuki racing cars, mostly represented in the JWRC(Junior World Rally Championship, 1600cc)are brilliant. It started a couple years ago with the Ignis and it continues with the Swift, the proof being 3 cars among the top 4 of the category on a total of 5(Swift)engaged !All that we ask for is more sensations behind the wheel of a Suzuki Swift !Well it seems that the japanese manufacturer from the Shizuoka prefecture heard our call and presented the "Swift X Concept" at the 2007 Tokyo Auto Salon.While the stock Swift has got a soft and sporty design , here, we are taken into another dimension; the racing dimension, at least from what the exterior tells us. The body kit(front/rear bumpers, side skirts, rear wing)is impressive and almost fully made of carbon fiber, the exception comes from the rear where the job done on the visible part of the exhaust system is very nice.It is obvious that this Swift wasn't made to be taken on muddy rally stages but rather on the sweet tarmac of a race track, or is it ?Once the "Lambo-doors" opened we get to see an interior mixing the Racing World; bucket seats, steering wheel, rollcage...and the Tuning World; neons and a huge and well designed audio system in the back.In the end this Swift X Concept probably stands where it belongs in this Tokyo Auto Salon, the quality of the work is again excellent, we'll see in the future if this was simply a Concept or a little bit more.
