Some good runs here with a lot of C6 ZR1 action. Yes, we all want to see tuned C7 ZR1's take on tuned McLaren 570's but the C6 is no slouch. The camera car in the first set of runs is a 700 horsepower C6 ZR1. ...Published on 10-30-2019 02:25 PM
Finding good fuel for those days when you want to hit the roadcourse, dragstrip, or 1/2 mile event is not as easy as most people think. Pump E85 is great but it variest in ethanol content and when your car is in kill mode you want consistency and reliability. Enter ETS Racing Fuels. ...Published on 10-29-2019 02:51 PM
Congratulations to Eurocharged Canada who tuned this McLaren 720S on the factory turbochargers. This is a boost only and factory turbo North American record. That means no nitrous or power adders involved just what the car comes with from the factory. ...Published on 10-28-2019 03:43 PM
Part of the problem in the aftermarket is finding companies that truly deliver as promised. Unfortunately, the tuning scene is filled with crooks but also many reputable companies that stand the test of time. ECS Tuning certainly is one that stood the test of time. ...Published on 10-26-2019 03:03 PM
This is an interesting development from TurboSource. Now variable A/R (Aspect Ratio) in a turbocharger is nothing new as that is exactly the idea behind VTG (Variable Turbine Geometry) turbochargers which Porsche is well known to use in production cars. ...Published on 10-25-2019 01:28 PM
The full Porsche 997.2 Turbo specs are not provided here but it had some engine work (owner claims just upgraded rods) and obviously some big turbochargers. It is a manual transmission example which is a large factor when facing a McLaren 720S. ...Published on 10-23-2019 03:04 PM
MotorTrend's 2019 Best Driver's Car competition is taking place at Laguna Seca and it is interesting to see the results on a track that is a good mix of technical application and power. The lineup is good but does not have any high performance standouts. ...Published on 10-21-2019 01:02 PM
This is a major win for farmers selling corn who lobbied the Trump administration regarding larger purchases of ethanol. What does this mean for car enthusiasts? It means more ethanol. You will see more ethanol in your gasoline and E15 will see greater adoption. ...Published on 10-19-2019 12:41 PM
The idea of a compressor powered by electricity is nothing new. Mass adoption of a turbo that uses electricity to instantly spin the compressor before having to wait for exhaust gases certainly would be new. That is what Garrett promises with the E-Turbo set to hit the market in 2021. ...Published on 10-17-2019 11:21 AM
The idea of a Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami is not anything new. It was on again then off again and now it appears it really is happening. The Formula 1 Grand Prix of Miami is expected to take place in 2021. ...Published on 10-17-2019 10:02 AM
Hennessey tuned this ZR1 to 1200+ horsepower and there is no reason to doubt it as they briefly held the LT5 1/4 mile record. Everyone is familiar with the beast that is the Mclaren 720S so how does it look going up against a highly tuned C7 ZR1 LT5? ...Published on 10-16-2019 09:43 AM
This is the same car that set the North American 60-130 record for the M840T McLaren 720S platform. What makes it impressive is that the owner states the McLaren 720S is on the factory turbochargers so Dyno Spectrum's tuning is working some magic. ...Published on 10-15-2019 04:51 PM
The world record for the McLAren 720S M840T 60-130 is 3.89 seconds set by a Dyno Spectrum tuned 720S in the Middle East. The North American record is 4.02 seconds and it also belongs to a Dyno Spectrum tuned McLaren 720S which is also on the factory turbos. ...Published on 10-11-2019 08:02 PM
One of the (few) good things Car and Driver does these days is the Lightning Lap which is possible thanks to their resources. This year has a good field but it is missing a few notables namely the C8 Corvette, Mustang GT500, and Ferrari 488 Pista. ...Published on 10-08-2019 10:05 PM
How can you not love the McLaren 720S? Not only is it absurdly fast right off the showroom floor you can extract plenty of more power out of it should you be a boost junkie. Which you are if you are reading this site. ...
