Last Bugatti Veyron 16.4 sold Well, this car is not so great. OK it was the first to hit 400kph and has over 1000 bhp. It is fast on a straight line, but on a track there are some other cars that can keep up with the Bugatti like a Gumbert Apollo a Königsegg CCX or a Pagani Zonda, and lets not forget such cars as Ariel Atom 500 or an Ascari A10 are as fast as the Bugatti on every real track, but cost a fraction of it. Nice car, but more of a technical showcase, then a real supercar.

Ferrari Formula Rossa roller coaster details revealed, 0-100 kmh in 2.0 seconds [video] If you want to check out other fast roller coasters, check out this site: http://www.rcdb.com/rhr.htm (RollerCoasterDataBase). My favourite: Dodonpa in Japan; it goes from 0-170kph in 1.8 sec (that's 0-100kph in about 1sec, or 0-100mph in about 1.7sec). This is not F1 level, this is Dragster level.

F1 teams close to agreeing new 2013 engine formula - 4 cylinder twin-turbo I don't care what engine is in the car, as long as they are fast, and the races are exciting. Are the race fun to watch at the moment with the V8 engines, where they more interesting with the V10 a few years back? NO Its not about the number of Zylinders (otherwise they should build a V16 or a W18) Belive me, the horsepower of these 1,5L I4 will be enough, and the cars will be as fast as today. Therr are other things that make F1 boring.

NLV Quant Preliminary Details Released in Geneva This car does not work!!! The solar cells on the are just to show off, it will never run with energy from these cells. There where some articles in swiss newspaper about the guy who runs this "solar cell business", and they are not very favourable. He is collecting money from investors, but it seems like no one is working on the development and the production of these cells. There is an english summary of the articles here: http://www.saabsunited.com/2009/06/the-curious-case-of-the-koenigsegg-nlv-solar-quant.html

Mosley reveals plans for FIA 'world engine' I see, in 10 years time, all you need to run a F1 team is a little money and a some can of colors to paint your car.....

Speculation: BMW Z4 debut next month - Z2 hybrid on the way Cool the first BMW with V6 in decades... you can do better WCF ;-(

Porsche Accuses Nissan of Cheating on GT-R Nurburgring 'Record' Lap Run I still have some doubts about the 7:29 of the GT-R since that time is not "official" (SportAuto will do THE test on the Nordschleife with Horst von Saurma). 7:3x should be doable for the car without problems. Even the M3 CSL had a 7:50 with only 360PS (I know thats not all it takes). This also means that the 7:54 from Porsche in the GT-R are way to slow. But I really like to see an offical Nordschleife-time from the GT-R from a neutral source.
