Forget the rally cars, for the latest instalment of his Gymkhana series, US mentalcase Ken Block throws a custom-built AWD 630kW 1965 Ford Mustang around the streets of LA… You NEED to see this…

Ever heard of the Vencer Sarthe? No? Don’t worry, you really aren’t alone. Conceived by an ex-plumber from Holland, packing a huge V8 and absolutely no electronic driver aids, the Vencer Sarthe is an old-school supercar for the modern age. It costs more than a Ferrari 458, McLaren 650S or Lamborghini Huracan, but it is […]
The latest video from our friends at XCAR sees them driving an automotive legend – a Shelby Mustang GT S/C. A big supercharged V8, loads of power and a truly apocalyptic noise, the Shelby Mustang GT is all that is American and then some. That is probably why it makes sense at home, but not […]
Take a fat, steaming pile of marketing bollocks, a Ferrari California T and a clever artist with a few buckets of UV paint and mix everything up in a wind tunnel, and what do you get? Well… this really. Ferrari USA were concerned that not enough people considered the California T a “work of art” (most likely because it isn’t…) […]
This week’s BLAST is a mighty one indeed – it comes from the 1976/77 season and shows the big, bad OSCA Camaros of Kevin Haig and Bruce Jenner battling it out on the Levels race track in Timaru. Awesome stuff! Thanks, as always, to Terry Marshal!
Runaway UDC V8 Ute series leader Kris ‘Killa’ Walton was the dominant driver of the first three rounds at Highlands Motorsport Park, the Fuchs 500 at Pukekohe and the V8 Supercar round at the track, and he returns to Taupo for the second time having won races and impressed there last season. Walton is running […]
HSV today released details of the latest bout of supercharged silliness that has gripped them, possessing them to build and released the GTS Maloo – a 430kW/740Nm ute. Yes, that is now a thing, thanks to the frenzied, clearly disturbed minds at HSV in Australia jamming the 6.2-litre supercharged LSA V8 into the company’s already-extreme […]
Car names. It is a tricky art getting it just right. Coming up with a name that invokes the spirit of the car is a very hard thing to do – the Ford Probe, for example, failed quite badly at that when, instead of invoking images of a cutting-edge machine used for space exploration, it […]
The magnificent Chris Harris takes on the equally magnificent Jaguar F-Type Coupe R. Nothing else needs saying, really. Just watch – and enjoy – the video!
This sort of thing has been done so many times now it is not funny. But still it is a very cool thing to watch! A single lap handicapped race between a 2011 Red Bull RB7 driven by David Coulthard, a current Triple 8 Red Bull Holden V8 Supercar driven by Steven Richards and the […]
