Audi R8- one for the road…to be continued

by Ross Mills

Audi’s R8 shares its bones with the Lamborghini Gallardo and earned praise from Le Mans legend Jacky Ickx before it ever reached production — but the factory version turned out to be just the starting point. German tuner MTM pushed the R8 and its closest sibling in two wildly different directions: a twin-engine Bimoto built from an Audi TT pushing over 1,000 combined horsepower, and a stripped, roll-caged R8 Clubsport capable of 225 mph. Read on to find out how far one platform can really be pushed.

The best drag races of modern muscle cars-ZL1 vs Hellcat vs Shelby vs Boss 302 vs Mustang GT

by Wes

This compilation strings together real quarter mile drag races between the modern muscle car era’s biggest names — Hellcats, Camaro ZL1s, a Shelby GT500 Super Snake, a Corvette ZR1, and more — with results that do not always match what the spec sheets promise. One Hellcat driver appears to fall asleep at the line and still nearly catches a Super Snake by the finish. Watch to see which factory-built legend actually comes out on top.

Commenters point to a 351 Cleveland V8 under the Falcon’s hood as the sleeper’s secret weapon, part of the same homegrown horsepower war that once pitted Ford Australia against Holden at Bathurst. Watch to see whether the exotic actually pulls away.
