    RCR's Next car should be.....

    I would still buy one of these today! This was originally built with a Corvette V8 power! Seems like a perfect addition to RCR's classic race car line. 1965 Bizzarrini P538 Brechetta

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    Graeme, that car has been around the internet for several years. The material you posted is just about all that was originally posted on the car. The builder/ designer was posting on a Noble forum for a bit. Mostly about different ways to model new designs. Then disappeared.

    New Changes at Porsche..all new models & small turbo engines for 911

    My own concerns about this story... Has anyone found any follow up info on these changes coming from Porsche? The AUTOCAR article by Andrew Franke seems to be the only one. As long as I can remember, when Porsche announced significant changes, the whole auto world followed their every word...

    New Changes at Porsche..all new models & small turbo engines for 911

    Significant New Changes at Porsche..all new models & small turbo engines for 911 Sure glad we are not getting any of that pressure to use these new small size turbo engines. Turbo lag and terrible engine exhaust sounds are not my idea of great hi performance sports cars. Porsche plans 911 GT3...

    Why Ferrari engineers don't like turbos

    What's funny or very sad is the manipulated sounds that Ferrari is implying as the OEM exhaust sounds from this new 488 GTB. Sorry,.. but that is not how V8 turbo exhausts sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ul9fz9RzhVo#t=38 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTg7uVU7a7I#t=19

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    Please,.. no more new Ford GT stuff... Or at least use a proper thread for it. I still vote on this car as the next race car replica. 1965 Bizzarrini P538 And it had a Corvette V8 as OEM!

    The SLC headlight and/or tail light swap potential thread

    These are easily the best looking rear lights for the SLC that I have seen. They work beautifully with the strengths of the overall SLC design, highlighting the very low, powerful, wide stance aspect of the SLC, plus being large enough to be easily seen from a distance. Here, on the 2015...

    Visited RCR last week...

    Anybody with any 1st person experience with this in hi performance track/race cars? I know F1 has been using stored kinetic power to do this, and that big diesel semi-trucks were experimenting with it a few years ago,.. but I have never seen it on a more conventional sportscar/racecar. Hope it...

    Ford Exploring Factory GTE Program, Prototype Options

    New Ford GT!!! From the original post: "The biggest change is at the heart of the machine: a new, twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V-6 EcoBoost engine said to offer north of 600 horsepower. (That compares quite favorably to the 550 horsepower supercharged V-8 found in the last GT.) The engine is, of...

    Anybody know this SL-C?

    Hoover at Turbo Hoses has long been the unofficial center for repairing and racing Noble 400's. He is also working on an updated version of the body for old Noble 400's. That's what seems to be confusing you with the RCR APEX. Hoover is also still working on building a new race car,..the HVR...
