  • The Porsche 928 convertible prototype

    The mission of the Porsche Museum is to preserve the models under its care for future generations. Some are exhibited at the automaker’s museum in Zuffenhausen, Germany, while others are exhibited at automotive events worldwide, such as this weekend’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. At any given time, however, the bulk of the collection resides in a newly-acquired, climate-controlled warehouse on the outskirts of Stuttgart, Germany. Porsche already gave us a glimpse at the facility and its contents, but now it’s back with a second video showing some of the more...

  • Faith Dickey walks a line strung between two moving Volvo trucks
    Woman Walks Rope Between Two Moving Volvo Semi Trucks: Video

    To be completely honest, we don't really care that Volvo is launching a new line of freight-hauling trucks, or that they're called FH. What we care about is this crazy, awesome woman named Faith Dickey. An extreme slackliner, highliner, and longliner, Dickey is the world record holder for the...

    Chris Harris Compares The Scion FR-S... To The Nissan 370Z? Video

    When it comes to lightweight and affordable rear-drive sports cars that you can buy new in the United States, the list is indeed a short one. In fact the only cars that come to mind for us are the new Scion FR-S (and its fraternal twin, the Subaru BRZ) and the Mazda MX-5 Miata. Yes, we know...

  • Monster Tajima in the Sport E-RUNNER electric Pikes Peak car.

    Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima remains a legend on Pikes Peak despite Rhys Millen's record run this year--after all, Millen went just five seconds faster than Tajima's 2011 run despite an additional two-plus miles of pavement in place of dirt. But this year, Tajima's run for the record was cut short because of a failure in his electric E-RUNNER race car. So instead of reviewing his run in full, we offer you a look at the difference between his electric race car during qualifying and last year's record-setting combustion-powered car loosely based on the Suzuki SX4. Which do you prefer? The snarl...

  • The running Red Bull F1 demo car warms up its pipes
    Red Bull F1 Car 'Sings' The National Anthem

    To promote the 2013 Grand Prix of America at the Port Imperial Street Circuit in Weehawken, New Jersey (which F1 czar Bernie Ecclestone remains less than optimistic about), Red Bull Racing recently demonstrated the surprising musical talents of its running Formula One show car.

  • Paul Dallenbach crashes at Pikes Peak 2012

    With 1,400 horsepower on tap, everything happens quickly in Paul Dallenbach's Banks Power Pikes Peak car. When the throttle sticks open, things happen way too quickly. Things like flying off the mountain into a stand of tall pine trees. That's exactly what this video shows. Amazingly, perhaps as amazingly as Jeremy Foley and Yuri Kouznetsov surviving their crash largely unscathed, Dallenbach survived his dance with death intact. The car, however, did not. Fortunately, Dallenbach managed to avoid the spectators standing nearby. According to Dallenbach's Facebook page, he escaped his 130-mph...

    Adam Carolla Visits Jay Leno's Garage In A Ferrari 330 GT 2+2: Video

    Jay Leno is not a Ferrari guy, or more specifically, he’s not a modern Ferrari guy. His issue with cars like the Ferrari 458 Italia is simple: there’s nothing under the hood that an owner can turn wrenches on, as all service needs to be done by an authorized Ferrari dealer. Older...

  • Jeremy Foley and Yuri Kouznetsov crash at Pikes Peak 2012
    Jeremy Foley's Insane Pikes Peak Crash: Video

    Yesterday, while many of his friends were autocrossing near Dallas, Texas, they were thinking about Jeremy Foley. Why? Because he'd be running up Pikes Peak in a 560-plus-horsepower (at the wheels) Mitsubishi Evolution by Evolution Dynamics. That's Most of our idea of a very good day. But...

  • 2013 Audi RS5

    That recurring dream, the one that scares the whee out of even 50-year-olds, unfurls from my brain and falls right into my lap as soon as I plug in Audi's jaunty little USB jump drive into the black box. Is there a test this morning? 'Cause I forgot to study last night, and there's no way I'm reading all of "The Stranger" on this 16-minute bus ride to school. Why worry? It's just three or four years since I drove Sonoma Raceway the last time, and nothing's changed, except for the name. Ooohhh...That's why. Sonoma's still a technical track. That's the time-honored euphemism for "walls hurt."...

    Jaguar Shows Its F-Type At Speed Before Paris Debut: Video

    It seems we know all there is to know about the upcoming Jaguar F-Type roadster. Unlike Jaguars of recent years (excluding the surprisingly hard-edged XKR-S), it will be focused more on handling than on luxury. It will come with a choice of three supercharged engines, including two V-6s and a V-8...

  • Russian car chase ends with crash, guns drawn
    Russian Car Chase Ends In Crash, Gun Play: Video

    We have to thank the ever-present threat of insurance fraud for Russia's dashcam video boom, or we might never have seen these gun-wielding Russians chasing a hit-and-run driver until it ends in a crash and a foot chase. If you listen closely near the beginning of the video when the chasing car...
