CHECK OUT: Rhys Millen Thrashes Global Rallycross Car Around Streets Of Washington, D.C.: Video Launching from an elegant repose into a fearsome burnout, the turbocharged six-cylinder engine screaming, the XJ220 crosses what appears to be a damp patch on the ground.

    McLaren P1 Vs. Bugatti Veyron Drag Race In The Wild

    While we can never condone street racing in any form, we have to admit these guys are doing it with style. On the road in some nameless desert (perhaps part of the ongoing Goldrush Rally), a McLaren P1 finds a Bugatti Veyron and 2,000-plus horsepower is uncorked. Which wins? It’s hard to...

  • Big block-powered Smart ForTwo drag car

    The Smart ForTwo is the butt of many jokes, often for good reason. Recently, it's even become the target of some malicious practical jokers in San Francisco. This is one Smart car that's not taking any guff, however. ALSO SEE: Audi 200 Turbo Tears Up A Snow-Covered Mountain: Video Okay, so it's a purpose-built drag car with a Smart ForTwo's carapace thrown over the top, so it's not really a Smart car anymore. Mark Cryer's work on this crazy combination of things large and small deserves some praise. The 462-cubic-inch Chevy V-8 smart car is quick, running 11.72 at 114.43 mph in its second...

    In the race to produce as much power as possible from an engine, it seems that the average builder turns to anything from the GM stable of powerplants.

In fact, Gavin is currently working on a tri-bank 12-rotor rotary engine for use in marine applications.
