  • Sabine Schmitz tests the Chevrolet Corvette Z06

    Before we get into the specifics of the Sabine Schmitz comment, it should be noted that we don’t know what exactly about the Corvette irked her nor what context the comment was made in. Schmitz, the infamous ‘Ring Queen, needs no introduction. Her driving skills, honed at the legendary Nurburgring Nordschleife, grabbed the attention of the editors of South Africa's Car Magazine who enlisted her talents in their latest comparo of the world’s best performance cars.

  • Woman attempts to ram cop car using a Camaro

    The driver of this Chevrolet Camaro is probably not one of the smartest people out on the roads, as evidenced by her futile attempts to evade a pursuing police car by reversing into it. All she manages to achieve is creating a lot of smoke from the burnt rubber of her tires. Also keep an eye out for the panicked driver of a Mercedes-Benz who fails to make a three-point turn once he or she realizes the road is blocked. [YouTube]

  • 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0

    This is an 850 horsepower engine that was destined to end up in a customized Mustang. Or was, rather. The engine was on its seventh dynamometer test when it gave up the ghost in spectacular fashion.
