Hennessey Venom GT vs Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
Only a few weeks ago was the 2011 Goodwood Festival of Speed. This event draws a huge crowd, with all the best, most exotic car manufacturers present to show off their vehicles. Cars as rare as the Aston Martin One-77, Pagani Huayra, Covini C6W, Koenigsegg Agera, and many more.
It was no surprise that Bugatti brought out their top gun, and fastest certified production car in the world, the Veyron Super Sport, to show it off. It is also no surprise that Hennessey brought their brand new Venom GT supercar to demonstrate its performance.
The main event of the weekend is the hill climb race. Virtually every car gets raced, and timed, up this hill for both fun and bragging rights.
So what happens when the Hennessey Venom GT lines up behind the Bugatti Veyron super sport?
Read below and watch the video to find out.

SSC Tuatara Preview
Not too long ago SSC unveiled the successor to the Ultimate Aero. It promises more power, less weight and a new production car top speed world record. For the past few months it has been referred to as the Ultimate Aero II or Next Generation due to the company not revealing the name of the beautiful hypercar.

Arash AF-10 - New Engine
You may or may not have heard of Arash Motor Company and their AF-10 supercar. It is an English built exotic that has been in development for years and is finally available for purchase. But after checking their website it seems they have changed engine suppliers. Originally it used a 7.0L V8 from Chevy, the LS7. In base form it made 550hp and eventually twin turbos were available with 1300hp.

Mosler Raptor Confirmed
About a month and a half ago I wrote an article speculating about a new Mosler Raptor. I speculated on what it will be and talked briefly about the history of Mosler.
Now it seems Mosler has confirmed the existence of such a car.

Pagani Stereo - More Pagani Art
Horacio Pagani built himself an image in the supercar world. He didn't break a world record with a low quality, half put together supercar. He went the opposite way. In the beginning the Zonda wasn't an outstanding performer, but what it contained was amazing build quality.

Teamspeed Interview with JEROD SHELBY
Most car enthusiasts have heard of SSC. They built the Ultimate Aero, a car that broke the record for the Worlds Fastest Production Car. In 2007 it bested Bugatti's unofficial 253mph record and Koenigsegg's official 242mph by going 257mph. (This was beaten almost 2 years later by the Veyron Super Sport)
For most people this is where their knowledge of the car brand ends. This is an interview conducted in the Teamspeed.com forums. Teamspeed is "the worlds premier luxury forums." Many member their own the rarest, fastest, and most expensive exotics; cars, boats, motorcycles, etc. They often get access to events most others don't, get exclusive unveilings, and have started having exclusive interviews.
This interview is conducted with Jerod Shelby, the founder and owner of SSC. Members were given the chance to ask questions regarding Jerod Shelby, his past, and the history of SSC. SSC preferred the questions to be about that and not about the new car being developed, much of it is still top secret. Some questions are not directly answered by Mr. Shelby. Some that pertain to the car are answered by Junus Khan, SSC's Marketing Director.

Pagani Zonda Chopper
Very interesting bike I cam across. This is a V-Twin chopper that is styled after the Pagani Zonda F. The bike was ordered by Horacio Pagani and sits in the Pagani factory showroom.
The first thing people will think when they see this is it is terrible. There is no similarities between a chopper and a Zonda. The Zonda is light, powerful, fast, and comfortable while a chopper is heavy, underpowered, slow, and very uncomfortable. But there are reasons to admire the bike, even if it isn't your cup of tea.
Both car and bike are an exhibition of craftsmanship, design, quality and fit & finish. It is all in the details.

Upcoming Mosler Raptor in 2012?
Mosler Automotive is an American supercar brand that has always focused on race track performance. Their goals have been to create the quickest street legal cars.
One of the most notable was their Raptor. This car was an evolution of their current model.
Could Mosler be planning a new Raptor? An evolution of the already blistering MT900S?
