$18,495 seems a little steep for this Hurst upgrade package but it does look goood. Available on the Dodge Challenger R/T 5.7L Hemi and the SRT8, the Hurst package adds matte black Hurst graphics to the exterior while the unmistakable white Hurst shift knob adorns the interior; though a black shift knob comes extra in the glove box, cool.

Forged aluminum Hurst wheels, Magnaflow exhaust, K&N Air Filter and an Eibach suspension completes the package. We’re totally digging the Mopar hood scoop. It adds a welcome and mean visual enhancement.

This video is pretty intense. Scott Moran drives a McLaren powered GR61X to the top of the Doune Hillclimb with a time of 35.62secs beating the previous time of 36 seconds flat. For a tight, tiny, short course (.839 miles), the time is pretty impressive.

Novitec is always twin-supercharging shit, and by shit we mean the best cars out. They’re just like, “one supercharger? Nah, make it two,” and there you have it. This time they’ve taken Ferrari’s Scuderia Spider 16m, which is a sick vehicle by itself, and added 186 horsepower and 157 lb.-ft of torque from the awesome, high-revving V8, boosting power to 696hp and 503 lb.-ft of torque, respectively. The top speed is pushed to 205 mph, which is seriously a nutty speed in a convertible.

One thing about Novitec is their ability to keep the look of the car clean. Their three-piece 20-inch wheels are exceptionally clean and the sport springs help accentuate the look and also the handling.

PRESS RELEASE

Press Release:
How can you make a Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16M, built in a limited edition of just 499 vehicles, even more exciting and more exclusive? Easy, just take it to NOVITEC ROSSO, the world’s leading refiner of the sports cars from Maranello.
There the open-top lightweight model is fitted with the NOVITEC ROSSO RACE Bi-Compressor engine with 696 hp / 512 kW. It propels the Ferrari to a new top speed of more than 330 km/h. Numerous uncompromising sporty options such as 20-inch wheels, sport springs, a lift system for the front axle and exterior and interior accessories round out the product lineup.
NOVITEC ROSSO compressor technology has been the proven recipe for added driving fun for many years. For the eight-cylinder four-valve engine of the Scuderia Spider 16M NOVITEC ROSSO has now developed a custom version of its RACE Bi-Compressor engine.
The 4.3-liter V8 is supercharged by two cogged-belt-driven high-performance compressors with a maximum boost pressure of 0.48 bar. Each cylinder bank is fitted with a generously dimensioned water-to-air intercooler.
A specially manufactured heat-insulated intake manifold with larger cross-sections provides the engine with pre-compressed air. High-performance air filters and larger injectors round out the engine conversion on the intake side.
For a perfect symbiosis of maximum power yield, exemplary running smoothness and durability beyond reproach, the NOVITEC ROSSO engine specialists precision-match the new components with a newly programmed electronic engine management system.
Just as important are the larger cooling circuits for water and oil as well as dedicated cooling circuits for both compressors and the intercoolers.
The extensive NOVITEC ROSSO RACE Bi-Compressor conversion, available for 47,000 Euros for this and all other F430 Spider models, offers unique performance. With a power output of 696 hp / 512 kW at 8,400 rpm the NOVITEC ROSSO conversion surpasses the production engine by 186 hp / 136.9 kW. Peak torque grows from standard 470 Nm to 682 Nm at 6,300 rpm. Driving performance improves just as impressively: The tuned Scuderia Spider 16M sprints from rest to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds, and reaches 200 km/h after just 9.7 seconds. The 300-km/h barrier is shattered after just 23.8 seconds. Top speed for the open-top mid-engine sports car increases from 315 to more than 330 km/h.
For further optimized handling of the lightweight sports car NOVITEC ROSSO offers an update from the standard 19-inch tires to three-piece 20-inch wheels. The NOVITEC ROSSO NF3 double-spoke wheels in size 8.5Jx20 in front and in size 12Jx20 in back widen the track and thus allow even higher cornering speeds. The custom-tailored high-performance tires in size 235/30 ZR 20 in front and in size 325/25 ZR 20 on the rear axle are provided by technology partner PIRELLI.
NOVITEC ROSSO sport springs lower the center of gravity and further improve agile handling. For added daily utility of the Scuderia Spider 16M NOVITEC ROSSO offers a hydraulic lift system for the front axle. At the push of a button the front is raised by 40 millimeters and makes navigating obstacles such as curbs, speed bumps and garage entries easier. The front axle reverts to normal position at a second push of the button or automatically once the car reaches a speed of 80 km/h.
To give the Spider exterior an even more striking appearance NOVITEC ROSSO offers blacks taillights, side markers and reflectors.
The lightweight-construction interior can be refined with exclusive NOVITEC ROSSO options as well. The ergonomically shaped leather/carbon-fiber NOVITEC ROSSO sport steering wheel features a flattened lower rim for easier entering and exiting. The NOVITEC ROSSO carbon-fiber shift paddles are longer than their production counterparts and make manual gearshifts of the F1-SuperFast2 transmission even easier.
Special interior color requests can be fulfilled by NOVITEC ROSSO in any imaginable color combination.

We gave you a rendering of the Sportec SPR1 exactly four months ago, waiting for some official pictures of the car to arrive. But after Sportec brought the modified Porsche Turbo to Nardo, where they recorded a top speed of 236 mph, we can safely say the car is officially fast and definitely here. Tuned to 858hp and 650 lb.-ft of torque thanks to new turbos and titanium connecting rods among other things, the SPR1 will do 0-60 in 3.0 secs. and go from standstill to 186 mph in 18.9 secs. Scrubbing all that insane momentum is a set of eight-piston front calipers and four rear grabbing carbon ceramic discs. Oh, and if you do stack it, there’s a full cage, which should help keep your brain inside your skull.

We’re waiting for you, Sportec, to come deliver one (out of 10) of these bad boys to our offices in NYC. Let’s go, time’s a wasting.

On Sunday, August 16, the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance will be showing some pretty Ferraris for ya’ll to view. There will be 10 1949 166 MM Touring Barchettas and four of the only remaining TR59 race cars. Whether or not you’re a Ferrari fanatic or just the occasional passerby, this year Pebble Beach will have the best of the best.

PRESS RELEASE

2009 PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE
TO CELEBRATE CARS THAT SHAPED THE FERRARI LEGEND

Ten Ferrari 166 MM Touring Barchettas to be displayed together;
All four remaining TR 59 race cars also to be shown for first time

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (July 1, 2009) – The Sunday, Aug. 16 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance® will host some of the rarest, most illustrious Ferraris ever built, including 10 1949 166 MM Touring Barchettas and the world’s four remaining Ferrari TR 59 race cars.

For many automotive historians, the sleek, compact styling of the 1949 166 MM Touring Barchettas helped to define the Ferrari brand, creating its legend and mystique and drawing legions of fans worldwide. Just 25 of these cars were built and the Concours will reunite 10 of them.

“The 166 MM Touring Barchetta was the first beautiful Ferrari and fundamental to the brand’s success,” said David Seielstad, a Ferrari historian and expert on the 166 MM. “There was nothing cooler on the Cote d’Azur than the V12 ‘little boat’ for swanning around in the early 1950s. Its styling was unlike anything seen before and has influenced the design of vehicles from the AC Bristol to the latest Ferrari California.”

Ferrari’s 166 MM Touring Barchetta was also one of its most successful race cars, winning at competitions such as the 1949 Mille Miglia (this the MM in its name) and the 1949 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Ferrari TR 59 also won a number of major races, including its 1959 debut at Sebring and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1960. All four existing TR 59s, of the five ever built, will be displayed in August at Pebble Beach, chronicling the modifications this works racer experienced during two seasons of Ferrari racing.

The TR 59 featured a tubular chassis with coachwork designed by Pinin Farina and built by Fantuzzi. It was more powerful, lower and lighter than previous Testa Rossa models, and incorporated newer technologies, including disc brakes and coil valve springs. By the following race season, modifications to the TR 59’s windshield, turning radius, transmission, conversion to a dry sump engine and the addition of a small trunk and windshield wipers significantly changed the works racer’s appearance.

“The TR 59 is one of the most exciting, beautiful sports-racing cars ever built,” said Ed Gilbertson, Ferrari expert and Chief Judge at the Pebble Beach Concours. “Everything you’d expect to see in a great early racing car, from scoops and rivets to elegant curvature, is exemplified by the TR 59. Each one is unique, and discerning spectators at Pebble Beach will see their differences as the cars are lined up side-by-side according to their evolution.”

First conducted in 1950, the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance® (www.pebblebeachconcours.net <http://www.pebblebeachconcours.net/> ) has grown to be the world’s premier celebration of the automobile. Only the most beautiful and rare cars are invited to appear on the famed 18th fairway of Pebble Beach Golf Links®, and connoisseurs of art and style flock to see these masterpieces. Charitable donations raised by the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance® now total over $12 million.

As if pitting a Veyron against the McLaren F1 wasn’t enough,  the boys over at Top Gear got to have some extracurricular fun in the desert as well, in the form of Lamborghini’s newest supercar, the LP670-4 SV. Essentially a Murcialago, only with more horse power and less weight. Sounds like more fun to us. Check the vide below for a special appearance by another super car, and to see how the SV faired around the infamous Top Gear test track.

And if anybody could tell us who we have to talk to to get the government of Abu Dhabi to shut down what seems like all of the roads in the entire emirate, that would be great.

HKS has recently released some of the parts off of their SEMA Genesis project -  one of these being the Hyundai version of their Legamax exhaust series. What’s better is that they already have versions for either the turbo 4 cylinder, or the big v6 - whichever you chose to go with. So do yourself and your car a favor: get some noise, flow, and a better looking replacement of the stock piece.

From the HKS site:

Legamax and Sport Exhaust Systems are designed to reduce backpressure and increase exhaust flow for greater peak power and a broader torque band. Each Legamax and Sport Exhaust application utilizes a specific muffler design and shape along with the appropriate piping diameter to maintain low-end torque while maximizing high-end horsepower. All Legamax systems are made from polished SUS304 stainless steel piping.

We have a feeling that nothing can quite prepare you for a drive down the drag strip in a Top Fuel dragster rated at 7000hp, but the guys over at Top Gear have posted a pretty interesting interview, complete with illustrations, with Andy Carter, the reigning, three-time European FIA Top Fuel Drag Racing Champion. (We didn’t even know they had Top Fuel across the pond) Andy was also the first racer to set a 300mph pass in Europe, in 2002. Needless to say, you have to be a little bit crazy to want to get behind the wheel of one of these machines. Here’s what Andy had to say:

“Before my first run of the season, I’ll spend about three hours in the car, just sat in the garage, going through things in my head. Each pass takes less than five seconds and I’ll hit 300 mph, but I need to slow that down in my brain to compute everything that’s going on. You’ve gotta be prepared.

Firstly, I need to be strapped in tight. I breathe out, making myself smaller so the belts can be pulled tighter – you couldn’t fit a matchstick between the strap and my body.

Then I get pushed to the start area, where my mechanic fires up the 8.0-liter V8. It runs on gas first, then switches to more explosive nitromethane. I push the fuel lever to bring the engine to 2,000 rpm, wait till the oil’s up to pressure then find the biting point, which feels different each time as there’s a new clutch for every run. Then I start the burnout, listening to the engine, being careful not to rev it too much, but still get the tires hot.

After that, I reverse to the start line and get ready to go. Once into the “stage”, I let the centrifugal clutch completely out and just hold the car on the hand brake – it takes a strong arm to hold it steady! When the amber lights flicker, I nail the throttle to the floor and I’m gone before I even see green.

I’ll get from 0-100 mph in just one second, by which time I’ll already be aware of what the car’s doing. Often it can wheelspin, which I’ll sense almost before it happens (strapping in so tight helps me feel like an integral part of the car) when the rear-end lifts slightly. So I just come off the gas a bit to stop the engine revving too high – if it loses traction, it can blip to 10,000 rpm in just a tenth of a second.

But the worst thing that can happen is tire shake. That’s when the wheels turn so fast they actually run over themselves, crumpling around their leading edge. When that happens, the whole car shakes violently, which can turn your vision gray or even knock you out. To stop it, I come off the throttle and immediately back on. You’ve gotta be quick to catch it!

Also, it’ possible that a cylinder can go pop. If that happens, you’ll get more exhaust blow-out on one side than the other, which can push the whole car across the track. So I’ll have to put on some corrective lock at anything up to 300 mph.

When I cross the line, I’ll come right off the throttle and push on a lever to deploy the parachutes. Usually they’ll stop the car on their own, but I have a hand on the brake lever just in case. Trouble is, the ‘chutes will lift the back of the car clean off the floor, making it wiggle all over the place. So the most steering I’ll do is while bringing it to a safe stop in the shutdown area. If everything’s gone well, though, the run will take about 4.5 seconds, I’ll have hit over 300 mph and consider it a job well done.”

-Dan Read

An Illustrated Guide:

1. Breathe out and have your mechanic strap you hard into the car, squeezing you in tight.

2. Roll forward, find the biting point and do a burnout to warm the tires. Reverse to start line.

3. Let the clutch out and hold the car on the hand-brake. Wait for the amber, brace for a 5g force and nail the throttle. Aim for the middle of your lane.

4. Modulate the throttle to stop wheelspin and tire shake, then deploy the ‘chute and hang on.

We’ve mentioned it before, and now you can feast your eyes on the sight and sound of Gallardos being driven like they should. So the soundtrack may be a little cheesy, but there’s something crazy about seeing a field of these things coming at you. And don’t think that just because one of these cars cost nearly $300k, it’s all parade laps - there’s full contact and even some spins.

The same Swedes who will bring the Fiesta Rallycross to Pikes Peak on July 19th, Olsbergs Motor Sport Evolution are now setting their sites on the ESPN X Games with three differently badass, rally prepped Fiestas. All three Fiestas will comply with Rally America Open Class specs for the extreme games.

Drivers for the Olsbergs team include former Indianapolis 500 winner Kenny Brack who will pilot an ‘09 Fiesta three-door hatch, Tanner Foust will drive a ‘09 five-door hatch and Moto X poster boy, Brian Deegan, who will rally an ‘08 Fiesta three-door hatch. This will mark the first time a Ford has been used in X Games’ Rallying and hopefully not the last.

X Games 15 will be held in Los Angeles, CA on July 30-August 2 and hopefully all the buzz will make it loud and clear to Ford that the Fiesta should be here to stay!

Aside from showcasing historics, the Goodwood Festival of Speed is also known for bringing out some unusual and special cars from many of the world’s top manufacturers each and every year, and seeing as the event takes place in England, Jaguar usually makes a pretty good showing. Last year we were fortunate enough to see the Jaguar XFR test mule take a couple of runs up the famous hillclimb course. This year Jaguar has just announced that they plan to show a special edition of the XKR, dubbed the “Goodwood Special”, which will join other scheduled notable appearances such as the Lexus LF-A sports car that everyone has been drooling over and the Infiniti Essence concept car which was debuted in Geneva earlier this year.

Aside from the obvious lime green paint job, the “Goodwood Special” is also said to feature a host of other one off parts which will undoubtedly include a host of performance modifications that will push the Jaguars performance beyond it’s current limits. While the folks over at Jaguar are keeping hush as to what enhancements have been made to the XKR, they did make sure to let us know that this one-off special was developed to “explore the harder side of the XKR’s character and allow our engineering team to explore some performance boundaries.” Making sure to keep things even all around, the special edition Jag also benefits from a completely re-tuned suspension and a set of 21 in wheels. We rather enjoyed driving the XKR when we had it, but anyone can tell that it’s not even close to the hardcore road racers such as the GT3 that truly excite us. So even while Jaguar is adamant that this is a one-off special built specifically for the Goodwood Festival, we can only hope that Jaguar has something even more hardcore up their sleeves.

Also joining the “Goodwood Special” will also be Jaguar’s record breaking XFR prototype which achieved a 225.675mph at the Bonnaville Salt Flats last year. As well as a host of cars from Jaguar’s heritage collection including a Jaguar XJ13 which is the only one of its kind in existence. For more info, check the press release below.

Press Release:

FASTEST JAGUAR EVER AT GOODWOOD FESTIVAL OF SPEED 2009

The fastest Jaguar ever will make its UK debut later this week at the famous Goodwood Festival of Speed. The Jaguar’s XFR Prototype made its record-breaking run at the legendary Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah last November, reaching a stunning top speed of 225.675mph.

The XFR Prototype, which will be driven by Rocketsports Racing owner, Paul Gentilozzi, the man behind the wheel at Bonneville, appears in Goodwood’s ‘First Glance’ category. A one-off Jaguar XKR will join the ‘Supercar run’, driven by Mike Cross, Jaguar’s Chief Engineer of Vehicle Integrity.

Mike O’Driscoll, Managing Director, Jaguar Cars, said: “The essence of the Festival is speed, making it the perfect venue for fielding Jaguar’s fastest car ever – the record-breaking XFR Prototype.

“The XKR ‘Goodwood Special’ has been developed as a one-off to explore the harder side of the XKR’s character and allow our engineering team to explore some performance boundaries. The Festival of Speed gives us the opportunity to have fun in a high performance car without all the practical and legal requirements of driving on the road getting in the way!

“These stunning modern Jaguars will be accompanied by a terrific selection of our ‘fastest’ and most significant historic vehicles.”

In keeping with this year’s endurance theme, Jaguar’s illustrious heritage will be represented on ‘The Hill’ in the form of Le Mans winners – the D-type and the C-type. Jaguar will also field the unique XJ13 a car designed for endurance racing in the 1960s but which never competed – yet is still considered by many to be one of the most beautiful racing cars of all time.

Long Nose D-TYPE returns to The Hill
The 1957 Le Mans winning long-nose D-type will roar its way up the hallowed hill climb once again. Duncan Hamilton won the Reims 12-hour race in this car in 1956 along with Ivor Bueb and that same year, Mike Hawthorn entered the 1956 24-hour race at Le Mans with Bueb, finishing sixth. Hawthorn and Bueb drove this car again in 1957 at Sebring, finishing third.

First victory for Jaguar at Le Mans 24-hour race – Jaguar C-TYPE
The C-type brought Jaguar its first victory in the Le Mans 24-hour race. Once the XK120 had finished twelfth in the 1950 Le Mans, demonstrating its abilities in racing, it was clear Jaguar had the makings of a world-beater spurring on chief engineer William Heynes to create a competition version for Le Mans – the C-type.

The only one in the world – Jaguar XJ13
The XJ13 is one of the most beautiful racing cars of all time, thanks to the extraordinary work of aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer. Although the XJ13 was built as a potential Le Mans contender, it never competed in a race due to various business reasons but the potential of this unique 502bhp, 5-litre V12 engine was never doubted.

Bonneville XFR
Running with minor aerodynamic and safety modifications to meet the requirements for a Bonneville run, the 225mph top speed was achieved with additional horsepower liberated by a remapped ECU, a modified air intake and exhaust system and revised supercharger settings. No internal engine components were changed and the six-speed automatic transmission was standard, including the gear ratios. Paul’s link with Jaguar comes from his success with the XKR in the American Trans Am Series – he has achieved five series victories between 2001 and 2006.

Goodwood Special XKR
As well as performance enhancements and a louder exhaust, this one-off XKR, based on a MY10 vehicle, features 21-inch wheels and a lowered ride-height. The exterior also stands out with a unique Lime Green paint scheme and XKR exterior graphic along with satin graphite detailing to the front grilles, headlights, door mirrors, side window surrounds, rear signature blade and bonnet louvres.
