Extreme Performance 66 Powercruise Coverage

Category: Misc
Posted: 28.05.2010 14:45

Our buddys at Extreme Performance Magazine asked us to throw up some of their awesome Powercruise 23 coverage from earlier this year.

While it appears in the brand new issue of Extreme on sale today (May 28th), some of the details on who won what left a little to be desired.

Make no mistake, the relevant staff involved have been drawn and quartered and are now serving time making custom number plates and fitting hideous body kits to Toyota Camrys.

Either way, the team at Extreme Performance sincerly apologise for any inconvenience their otherwise awesome coverage may have created.

VIDEO: Mythbusters drive a car on water

Category: Misc
Posted: 11.01.2010 10:09

Remember the Countach skipping over a lake in Canonball Run 3? Mythbusters recently decided they'd try and see if the stunt was workable, first trying it out on a scale version, then with a Pontiac Fiero and a real lake.

We wish we could tell you that these stunts are successful, but we just don't know, as the Mythbusters guys have cleverly cut each video short to make you either go to their website or watch the TV show to see the full thing.

Top Gear get their own iPhone app, too!

Category: Misc
Posted: 11.01.2010 09:59

Seems like everyone is getting their own iPhone applications these days. However, considering there's over 90,000 of the buggers in circulation right now, it's probably not too hard to fathom.

Top Gear are the latest to release their own, this time reprising the 'Cool Wall' concept as a game.

For $1.99 you can spend hours trying to guess what cars are cool and which are uncool. But considering that there seems to be no scientific method for deciding which are cool and which are uncool on the TV show, we're not sure how anyone else is going to be able to figure it out and get the right answers.

The reviews page has raised some concerns over cropped images of vehicles and whatnot, however Top Gear claim updates are coming, so buyer beware until then.

Gran Turismo 5 cover art finally released

Category: Misc
Posted: 11.01.2010 09:44

It seems like an age since they started talking about Gran Turismo 5, with teasers, screen shots and other whatnots floating around. Hopefully with the release of this cover art, featuring the new Mercedes SLS-AMG on the front, we're not too far away from being able to play the actual game.

We don't know about you, but we suck at video games. Some out there have an unnerving natural ability, like the guy in the following video who can perform incredible drifting maneuvers in Forza 3.

We don't need to say any more; just check out the video.
