It seems these days everyone wants a piece of
Ferrari,with countless sports car-makers gunning for Maranello's territory. But
Volvo ? Volvo Trucks, no less?
Believe it or not, the latest drag race competition pitted a Volvo big-rig against a Ferrari 360 Spider. Of course it wasn't just any old run-of-the-mill tractor, but the Mean Green hybrid racing truck. The beast packs a 16-liter twin-turbo engine that cranks out 1,900 horsepower and is further boosted by a 200hp electric motor.

A beautiful video! More of an ad, but love the lines- and what it means to us enthusiasts.

That's Jeremy Clarkson's voice!
The video is exciting. And features an Aston. No wonder JC signed up for that.
The other day i was getting some basic motorbike training from my brother-in-law(close turn slalom, hard braking and few more). After a long practice session, i had a chance to get the best out of the evil v twin(over a short distance) and voila what a graceful symphony of engineering- from those vibrations to the godly-throaty-gargling exhaust, its hard not to fall in love with this no-frill, "in-your-face" bull dog. A short video on Harley Davidson Sportster Forty eight effortlessly crossing 100kmph mark under 6secs and may be another 1sec if not 2 to clock 120kmph.
Ps: done with safety gear and on an empty stretch.
