Last week, we told you how much fun the 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe is from behind the wheel in our First Drive Review. Now, we can show you. This video was shot from inside a CTS-V Coupe we took around the very technical track at Monticello Motor Club, a racetrack that's normally only open to members of this exclusive driver's club. Courtesy of Cadillac, which had installed video recorders in all the cars, it primarily shows the view through the windshield and the delightful sound of the CTS-V's 556-horsepower supercharged V-8 doing what it does best. There's also an inset of your editor...

That dude from Jet Blue completely staged his exit (which is not to say it wasn't awesome, though it pales in comparison to Wendy O. Williams' jump from a moving bus). 3. Tila Tequila is the love child of Anna Nicole Smith and Imelda...

The Acura NSX--or Honda, depending on where you live--has long been known as the ‘forgotten supercar’ in the world of exotics. This is mostly because its cutting edge all-aluminum construction meant that it was extremely expensive and its V-6 engine, though fairly high-tech in its day, was still not enough to make the NSX truly fast. Then there was the issue of brand cachet, something neither Honda nor Acura had much of back in 1990 when the NSX was first launched. Honda knew this so it tasked its F1 driver at the time of development, the legendary Ayrton Senna, to help develop the...
