A Street-Legal Aston Martin Drag Car Exists With 2,800 Horsepower

Aston Martin has made some beautiful machines worthy of British secret agents. The cars have seductive lines, are powerful, and have the allure of mystery as a consequence of being used in the James Bond 007 movie franchise.

Tesla Factory Backed Motorsports Program Conspicuously Missing

Factory backed motorsports programs are often the offspring of a young automotive manufacturing company. Ferrari and Porche went racing in their early days, as did Mini. Of course, the American manufacturers have done the same on and off through the years. Even Fisker and Rivian have established a racing presence. Interestingly, Tesla doesn’t have a motorsports program. The electric car …

The McLaren Senna is Named After Someone Special

I’ve always loved the name of the McLaren Senna. It’s beautiful, and it flows well, just like the car itself. I never gave much thought to the name’s origin. It’s not as obvious as the Kia Telluride — which was named after a city called Telluride in Colorado — but instead has a lot more …

Meet the Arno XI: Ferrari’s Only Racing Hydroplane Boat

F1-inspired supercars maybe Ferrari’s most iconic vehicles, but the Italian automaker has made more than just. It’s created GTs like the 456, 911-fighting sports cars like the 308 GT4, and even some police cars. However, it’s usually not associated with boats. But, like Lamborghini, Ferrari has dipped its toes into the aquatic world. And its …

Does the Electric Ford Mustang Cobra Jet Bolt Ahead of the Gasoline One?

As insane as the 1400-hp Mach-E is, it’s not the only high-powered electric Ford Mustang drag racer. A few months prior, Ford unveiled an equally-powerful Mustang Cobra Jet EV for the drag strip. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because it’s previously appeared on several gasoline-powered track-only cars. But which is faster, the ICE one …

We can’t all race the track versions of Lamborghinis, Ferraris, or other rare cars in real life. In video games, though, almost anything is possible.
