Volvo today revealed a new race car based on its S60 sedan. Powered by a 650-horsepower V-8 engine, the new race car will compete in the Australian touring car series V8 Supercars.

Chevrolet’s new supercharged Corvette Z06 is one impressive ride, but Hennessey’s new twin-turbocharged Corvette Stingray is on a completely different level of performance.

Lexus is set to unveil a new GT3-spec race car based on its RC F. The reveal will coincide with an announcement of the Japanese brand’s intention to compete in the international GT3 circuit.

You'll find all of this and more in today's car news headlines from around the High Gear Media network, right here at Motor Authority.
