First things first: let’s talk Powercruise. This unique event comes to the USA from Australia. The feature of this affair is a freestyle roll racing opportunity on an oval shaped track with long straightaways. It’s sort of a run-what-you-brung situation with some (500) pretty capable cars in the mix. Here it goes. The focal point of the video is the Corvette ZR1 owned by 1320 Video. Built by CT Performance, this Chevy is more than a handful (affectionately called SPNK BNK). Modifications to the 1320 Corvette include a ported blower and snout, an E85 tune, and an RPM built manual Read More

Get a load of this short clip that documents a race between a modified Subaru and a souped-up Porsche. My first reaction is to give the Porsche the nod, but I’ve seen this Subaru before and it’s plenty fast. The all-wheel drive Subaru WRX is a sporty sedan that comes from the factory with a turbocharged 2.0-liter flat four-cylinder engine that makes nominal power. Featured in this video is a WRX that’s been modified with a professionally built 2.1-liter stroker motor and a Precision 6466 turbocharger. This little bug is making major power, and it has undergone significant weight reduction Read More

Greetings gearheads, speed freaks and racing fans of every ilk. Please allow me to introduce Ollie Marriage Head of Car Testing for Top Gear Magazine. Today, Ollie will treat us to a thorough track test of what is arguably the most innovative vehicle on earth. After that, he’ll show us how badly the McMurtry Spéirling can whoop a Porsche GT3 RS in a head-to-head drag race. Sound good? Imagine virtually unlimited downforce without drag. Baffles the mind, doesn’t it? That’s exactly what the McMurtry Spéirling offers. The car utilizes powerful fans, spinning at rates as high as 23,000 RPM, to Read More

It’s a Chevy-on-Chevy thing on the streets (of Mexico), tonight. What we have here is a pair of heavily modified Chevrolets ready to knuckle up for a little cash and some sizable bragging rights. One thing is for certain – it won’t be boring. The Canary Yellow C6 (2005-2013) Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 comes with a supercharged 6.2-liter LS9 V8 motor that can make 638hp and 603 lb.-ft. of torque in factory condition. Right out of the box, this yellow bird could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.3-seconds and turn the standing quarter-mile in 11.3-seconds @ 131 mph. Top Read More

Who’d a thunk it? Charlie Brown is a big old G-Body sedan running 5-second passes at 146 mph on motor only. Keep in mind that Charlie Brown is a nitrous car with a brand-new engine under the bonnet. Seem impossible? That’s where Tin Soldier Race Cars comes in – these guys specialize in conquering the impossible. When the old, crusty motor blew up in Charlie Brown, the Tin Soldiers crew sought help from Uncle Tony Bischoff at BES Racing Engines. Tony had a fresh Chevy big block (all aluminum) laying around the shop with fuel injection and a dry sump Read More

What’s all the commotion about? It would seem that a gaggle of street racers from the FL2K event in the Sunshine State have dipped down into Mexico for some unrestrained hits on the interstate. These are some highly modified machines capable of extreme speeds. Prepare for takeoff. Right out of the gate, we have a supercharged Coyote Mustang taking on a twin turbocharged Lamborghini Huracan (Underground Racing?). This shakes out to a series of close races that even a photo finish can’t unravel. Next up, we have a tick jumping on a junebug. It’s a turbocharged Dodge Neon SRT4 (that’s Read More
