rsstou | 12:48 | 0 comments

The P1 design study for a modern day F1 may be all the talk these days, but McLaren has another new model up its sleeves, one that will be unveiled during the Singapore Grand Prix this weekend.

The new car is the limited run MP4-12C "SGP Edition", of which only three examples will be built, each carrying a price tag of S$1.28 million or about US$1.05 million / €800,000. While that may sound like a lot of cash, the folks over at TeamSpeed reported that two cars have already been spoken for leaving only one up for grabs.

NASCAR's Tony Stewart Caught On Film Groping Rivaling Driver's Wife's Butt…for Good Luck

rsstou | 11:13 | 0 comments

Defending NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Tony Stewart had both his hands full at the Chicagoland Speedway last weekend, but not in the way you may think….

Just moments before the race began, Stewart was captured on video by ESPN putting both hands on the...rear deck-lid of DeLana Harvick, who happens to be the wife of fellow NASCAR driver Kevin Harvick.

Despite jumping in surprise, DeLana didn't seem to be so annoyed, and before you jump into any twisty conclusions, you may want to hear what the three-time Sprint Cup champion had to say about the much publicized episode.

Running across any road when and where you are not supposed to can be dangerous, but doing so during a race is just asking for trouble. Still, how much blame can you put on a kid that's just doing...what kids do?

We don't know where this young boy's parents where during this episode or why there was a superbike race (or at least that's what is being claimed by the video poster) on a street in Nicaragua without any protective measures, but we can say that this was an extremely close call.

rsstou | 05:59 | 0 comments

The new Peugeot 208 Type R5, to be unveiled on September 27 at the Paris Motor Show, is the French marque's second competition model based on its new supermini after the 208 R2 that was introduced back in May.

We only get a single darkened picture of the 208 Type R5 that sports Peugeot's racing colors (in case you didn't notice, there's a thin yellow line between those BMW M stripes), but the carmaker has released initial details on the vehicle that will compete in the upcoming R5 category, to be launched by FIA in 2013.

Now That's Going to Leave Some Skid Marks…

Sure motorcycle wheelies can be fun to watch but it's far more entertaining and rare to see a car lifting its two front wheels up in the air, which is what happened at a recent "Holley LS Fest", an event that celebrates anything powered by General Motors' LS V8 engine.

A specially modded and obviously, very powerful, fourth-generation Chevrolet Camaro gave the spectators something to talk about at the event when it took off on the strip heading towards the sky not once but twice, fortunately, without anyone getting hurt.

The Italian Formula 1 Grand Prix, which takes place at the Monza circuit, is an important event for the tifosi; that is, Scuderia Ferrari fans, who want to see the red cars win on their home ground.

This year, two Ferrari-powered cars were on the podium. Sadly for the Italians, only one of them was a Ferrari: that of Fernando Alonso, and it managed only third place.

Turbocharged Subaru BRZ with 440WHP Runs Quarter Mile in 11.3 Seconds

rsstou | 08:30 | 0 comments

While no doubt fun to drive, some consumers and reviewers have been complaining about the lack of power in the Subaru BRZ and its boxer-engine twins, the Toyota GT 86 and Scion FR-S.

Nothing the aftermarket industry can't solve, as proved by this Subaru BRZ tuned by Accelerated Performance.

Thanks to a series of mechanical upgrades highlighted by the addition of a turbocharger system, reprogrammed ECU and a catless exhaust, the BRZ's 2.0-liter flat-four is said to produce a massive 440-horses…at the rear wheels.
