Video: Who knew scooter racing could be so much fun?
Filed under: Motorsports, Videos, Motorcycle Scooter... racing? We've got to be kidding, right? Only we're not. Because if it's got wheels - or often even if it doesn't - it can be raced. So while you might think of motor scooters as little more than an easy, cheap, quick and (if we're being completely honest here) downright fun way of getting around town, you can pretty much be guaranteed that someone, somewhere...

Video: Lamborghini en Ferrari laten de schijven gloeien
Als je je supercar op het circuit niet veel zwaarder belast dan op de openbare weg, dan rij je óf als een idioot op de straat (het altijd 100% ragtype), óf als een wijf op een circuit (het voorzichtige type). De man in de onderstaande video geeft zijn auto in ieder geval aardig de sporen, en dat kan ondergetekende, die fan is van hete VAG-schijfjes, best wel bekoren (dat rijmt)....

Filed under: Europe, Technology, UAW/Unions Add this one to the list of reasons Europeans have it better than we do, right after diesels and manual transmissions: No more "catching up on e-mail" while you should be spending time with your family. Or sleeping. Or watching Baywatch reruns.

Hyundai Lures BMW Designer Christopher Chapman to Direct California Design Studio
Of all the good plays that Kia has made in recent years, the best one may have been poaching German designer Peter Schreyer from Volkswagen in 2006, and charging him with making the company's then-forgettable product line more distinct and more attractive.

Filed under: Coupe, Performance, Europe, Videos, Lamborghini You ever get the feeling that automakers are understating the performance capabilities of their cars? Some do, and some don't.

Although Sant'Agata says the Aventador should be capable of topping out at 350 km/h (217 mph), the folks over at Sport Auto, as you can see from the...

The original, hyphenated ZL-1 was a $4160 option pack in 1969, a box that just 69 customers checked. An underrated 430-hp, aluminum-block 7.0-liter V-8 was the highlight.
