T.50

So far no pics, only a rendering, and not much to see. But Gordon Murray (yes, that Gordon Murray) is working on a new supercar. Not much has been revealed, it’s called T.50 and will be powered by a ground-breaking V12 from Cosworth. According to their website it will be naturally aspirated and deliver 650 hp. It will also be the “highest-revving engine ever in a production car”. From their website you can see the engine actually being tested, so I think the T.50 will actually come to life. Très cool! 😎

Koenigsegg Gemera. And you thought things could not get more insane…

The Gemera, just presented today. It has 1700 hp, and can go from a standstill to 100 km/h in 1.9 seconds, with a top speed of at least 400 km/h. It also has all-wheel drive, all-wheel torque vectoring, all-wheel steering and also has independent rear-wheel steering. And if that’s not enough, it seats four adults (comfortably, according to Koenigsegg).

It also has 8 (eight) cup holders, four that chill your drink and four that heat your drink. I’m not sure about luggage space, or if it even has space for your wallet. But who needs to carry luggage if you’re going somewhere at warp speed with your family.

Insane 🤯.

A Diablo at La Sarthe? Yeah, almost…

In the 90s, with everybody trying their hand at GT1 racing, Lamborghini didn’t want to miss the fun. So despite basically ZERO racing experience, they contracted French Signes Advanced Technology to build them a race car. Based on the lines of the current Diablo, they came up with the Lamborghini 132 GT1.

With a specially designed 6-liter engine delivering around 655 hp, they built one road-going example. And even got it homologated by the FIA in April of 1998. However, in September Audi bought Lamborghini and the program stopped right there.

And that was that, no Diablo at La Sarthe. What a shame! I for one would love to have a racing Raging Bull in the W-143 Garage.
