Bugatti unveils Veyron Grand Sport (2008)

By Ben Pulman First Official Pictures 17 August 2008 17:29 Bugatti has released more details of its targa-top Veyron Grand Sport following the cars debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. And with the roof off, the Grand Sport is the slowest Veyron ever, capable of just 225mph. But don't fret, because with the targa panel in place the Grand Sport will still do 254mph. The windscreen now sits a little higher and there are daytime running lights and new alloys.

'American Nitro' is back!

"Seventies drag-race mayhem is back!" bills "American Nitro," a schlocky drive-in exploitation film whose only quote of praise, from a dog-eared period issue of "Car Craft," reads, simply, "SPECTACULAR CRASHES!" Director Bill Kimberlin says that he made "American Nitro" in 1979 as a response to Tom Wolfe's influential 1965 essay, "The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby." "I was just getting out of high school in a small town in Northern California when Wolfe's book came out," he said. "Nitro came about as my response to the car culture I was exposed to in the small valley town of Boonville, Calif. Instead of 'American Graffiti,' I made 'American Nitro.'" A fitting comparison, in fact, considering Kimberlin later worked for George Lucas at ILM, starting with" Return of the Jedi." Now the movie is being released on DVD for the first time -- beware of bootlegs, warns the website -- and digitally remastered, while retaining the explosive charm and goofy narration of the 1979 original.

Chevy Volt MPG: Shocking!

I love the Internet. Specifically, the comments sections on big stories like the Chevy Volt. And it is the same on every site: The first two comments are fairly sensible and actually relate to whatever the story is, then everybody just starts eating each other's young and blaming the government for everything.
