A new Shelby in town.

Now I am sure if any of you are car enthusiasts (especially for muscle cars) you have heard the name Carroll Shelby. Well, this post isn't about him, it is about Jerod Shelby (no relation) and his company Shelby Supercars and their new car the Ultimate Aero TT. Though I'm sure if you keep up with supercars you have already heard of it. This is the car that brings the fastest production car title back to America stealing it from French company Bugatti. You may be thinking that a car that could do that must cost just as much or more, but it only costs about $655,000 which may be alot but considering the Veyron is $2,050,000. so for about 1.4 million cheaper you get a car that goes about 5mph faster, has 100 more horsepower and torque, and a manual gearbox. However looks, I guess, can be a difference for you. If you never liked the styling of a Lamborghini Diablo or things like it, you may not like the Ultimate Aero.

Knowledge is Power. Unfortunately you will get none of that here.

Now we all love the simplicity of our favorite online encyclopedia of almost anything you can think of Wikipedia, but sometimes you might not want the facts or have people tell it like it really is or just make up something funny and not true and possibly offensive to everyone. For that you need uncyclopedia.wikia.com . A very interesting website i stumbled along today. Give it a look and you might like it. I especially liked the article on ricers though i didn't appreciate their ricer rating on RX-7's as I own one. ZOOM ZOOM

3 Reasons you should consider an AWD

Great Handling
Better at Launch
No Torque Steer

Those aren't the 3 reasons. They are some of the reasons you normally hear about,, and 3 of the many reasons why AWD cars tend to be pretty good choices for performance.

The 3 reasons I am referring to are these:


Nissan GT-R- Bad@$$ Supercar with unbelievable cornering and a top speed over 190mph

Subaru Impreza STI Cosworth CS400- all the awesome things about the original sti multiplied by like 10! 0-60 in 3.7 secs for example. The pic above is Ken Block's Sti rally car. Not a CS400
