Behold, the late Colin McRae piloting a Prodrive modified Ferrari 550 Maranello at Le Man in 2004. This is some awesome footage of one of the most famous race tracks of all time. No music, no commentary, simply raw Ferrari power in the hands of a legendary driver.

Above I have a video clip of an EG Honda Civic running a 9.55 second quarter mile at 160 mph. The car was built by a company named Central Florida Turbo. Impressive, to say the least. Congrats and good luck figuring out the launch. Once that gets sorted, I can see low 9’s to a break into the 8’s.

Ferrari “F70” Mule Spotted

Ferrari “F70” Mule Spotted

NextAutos.com claims to have spy shots showing a Ferrari F430 that allegedly contains the drivetrain for the Enzo succesor. In the pictures, you can see the mule is wearing much larger wheels than a stock F430, and has front and rear fender flares to contain the excess rubber. Rumor has it that the new F70 will be powered by either a twin turbo V8 or a twin turbo V12. Here is to hoping its the later.

A lot of speculation is going on as to what the new halo supercar for the marquee will look like. Some speculate that the front air ducts seen on the F50 and Enzo will be retained, while others speculate the car may not look anything at all like its brethren. Only time will tell..
