Motor Trend, Stop Making this hard!


I was very excited to see the new Motor Trend test to find “America’s best handling car”…. though I think it’s silly to not include the Vette, since the ZR1 is just as new as the Shelby 500KR and Viper ACR. That said I was SUPER ANNOYED by the lack of a clear leaderboard. Sheesh, stop trying to placate everyone, man up here and stack these cars properly! Since Motor Trend is too something, to do this, I’ve done it for them based on their own data.

GT-R is coming to SEMA

GT-R is coming to SEMA

I recenlty made a post on NAGTROC.org to see if any GT-R owners had plans to visit the SEMA show. Didn’t realize there would be so many planning to attend. Watch this space come November for photos and videos of the event.

GT-R hits 447RWHP on Dyno

MC performance ran a RWD dyno of their brand new GT-R with less than 500 miles on the odometer and (worse) 91 Octane Gas. On a cold start, Godzilla hit 447hp at the rear wheels with the front driveshaft removed. I would assume that disconnecting the front wheels would give you some more power to the rear, but I’m very surprised the computer didn’t have a problem with this. Each successive run gets slower as (I assume) the car heats up, with a third run hitting 427hp at the rear wheels. Cool video though.Found via 2009gtr.blogspot.com

Fast and Furious 4 trailer

Speaking of Fast and Furious, Episode 4 is coming soon to a theater near you. I like the use of the Buick Grand National this time instead of the Honda Civics. Much more genuine choice of an under the radar criminal car with a bad attitude. Hopefully this latest version of the movie will have a decent car enthusiast Subject Matter Expert. Something sorely lacking from the first movie.
