The new refueling and tire changes the rules laid down in the pit stops safer, but it can quickly become obsolete the changes make driving an open cockpit car. lost profits from the open cockpit in the pits, the aerodynamic disadvantages of the homeless were much greater consequences.
The new rules also R15 V10 TDI power plant requires a smaller, lighter engines used R18 is hindered. The engine of choice is a compact 3.7-liter V6 TDI, which is 25 percent lighter than the V10 TDI engine, and because of the design creates more opportunities for technicians to work with electrification and energy recovery. "It would not be in the case of V8, for example, what is permitted by the rules,"said Ulrich Baretzky, head of engine development at Audi Sport car.
Another advantage of the 3.7-liter V6 TDI is compact and very low center of gravity of a cylinder angle of 120 degrees. lower center of gravity allows for better airflow through the car and the exhaust pipe from the left and right side of the engine to sit migrate between the two cylinder banks. "Hot site inside" is the name for the concept of specialists, which was carried out in similar form in Formula 1 in 1980,

Chevrolet Corvette C6 may be graying at the temple these days, but like George Clooney, it's still as strong and effective as ever. (Wait, that appeared strange.)
In 2012 Corvette model of two models for each update assessment designed to keep them on the front of the fight against the most powerful sports car. Z06 Z07 package is going to get a new name ("Ultimate Performance Package") and added Cup-style wheels and a ZR1 Performance Traction Management system for carbon-ceramic brakes by Brembo, and Magnetic Ride Control, which in 2011 Z07 package. Furthermore, the Z07 package is replaced by optional Michelin Pilot Sport Cup ZP that up to eight percent more corners to add stability to the potential to 'Vette heart valve defect of 1.1 g of pulling a circular drive.
ZR1, for its part, gets a new option group called the Enhanced Performance Package, includes Michelin Pilot Sport Cup and the silver cup style wheels with Z07 package, along with the close ratio six-speed (regular ZR1s get a new six-speed with the larger of the fifth and sixth gear for better highway mileage).
The other big news in 2012 as' Vette is the Centennial Special Edition package for the Grand Sport, Z06s, models ZR1s regular and LT. Publication on the occasion of 100 years since the founding of the Chevrolet adds Centennial of Magnetic Ride Control, Red brake calipers, black leather seats with suede inserts, a few stamps to paint (including the vaguely creepy face of Louis Chevrolet in circles and the B-pillar), and Carbon Flash Metallic Black. Incidentally, the Centennial, the only way black Corvette for sale this year, Chevy is moving color from the list of options . Maybe they want to target people hold the power face of Louis Chevrolet cars.
On top of these updates all the places corvette news and the new steering wheel, which hopefully will end decades of complaints by GM installing seats less than the supporting lines of the nature of the parents dance. From generation C7 Corvette a few years (or so it seems, based on interviews with management Chevy), the changes should help to C6 remain relevant in the meantime
Standard AGILITY new Mercedes Benz E-Class Coupe Control suspension automatically adjusts to the current driving style. To ensure maximum comfort, this system reduces the attenuation in normal driving, but now the maximum force is the dynamic cornering or evasive swerves. This ensures optimum stability coupe.
As an alternative to the standard AGILITY CONTROL suspension, AGILITY CONTROL suspension is available as an option. To meet the needs of more demanding drivers, Mercedes Benz is developing a package of vehicle dynamics (standard on the E500 and optional on the Sport Coupe Series) with an electronically controlled damping system. These processes sensor data about the current situation on the road and adjusts the shock absorber for each wheel individually. Comfort and Sport - - The driver can switch between two programs running, make the appropriate adjustments to the suspension, throttle response and changes in points of an automatic transmission.

Your life will change, and a sports car is terrified.
Peg Perego Duette stroller baby. Pair of Old English Mastiff dog-sitting for an indefinite period. Group sings. The metamorphosis of priorities has one or more of them fell into his world, and suddenly a smooth little two-seater will no longer work for you.
So let me offer a suggestion: Check the 2011 BMW X3 xDrive35i is changed.
This is not necessarily the best versatile car belonging to a segment of the luxury SUV, Audi Q5, Mercedes-Benz GLK and Acura RDX contains. But without a doubt, the second generation X3 to run the fastest, most sports and have fun with their peers.
In short, to play with all-wheel drive BMW X3 xDrive35i is inversely proportional to say for the fun of his name. Loaded example I tested has a sticker price of $ 53,015.
Most of the fun comes from the X3 engine. 3.0-liter inline six engine with turbocharger unit is a model of goodness and removes the 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. Variant of this engine is in many other BMW, including the company's Z4 roadster and coupe Full-size 740i, so installation is safe to take up the challenge in the X3.
BMW X3 35i says it is 0-60 mph in 5.5 seconds, which is creeping into sports car territory scoot. Remember that I recently reviewed the Lincoln MKX, not lumpy and requires a competitor to the BMW, 7.2 seconds to take the same speed.
Support for super acceleration X3 35i is the fact that maximum torque is available from 1,300 to 5,000 rpm. / Min. This wide range means that almost every time the accelerator pedal, you can expect Piura gratification.
Not only X3 35i forward like a sports car, but it sounds like one too. Powerful sound engine is a fresh young tenor, and may be a bit pushy for a luxury SUV while driving in the city.
Shift eight-speed automatic in Sport mode, and you'll hear more of the engine. That's because in sport, it allows the tranny to the engine closer to its redline 7000 rpm to get the gear.
The driver can also manually using the gearshift knob, although Pull the lever to move on almost every other configuration I can think of. X3 35i tested the gear is another step forward with the optional active switches in the $ 1,250 sport package.

One of the classic American sports cars, the Chevrolet Corvette, which was first introduced in 1953. This was the first completely American sports car with an American company car, so it is often referred to as "America's Sports Car" built.
Today, a lieutenant in Bowling Green, Kentucky, where they are produced created with great care. Although the charges were primarily operating out of the car, the Corvette "handling has been improved continuously in order on a par with popular European sports cars. But they still are relatively inexpensive, and perhaps one of the reasons why it remains so popular sports car.
Corvette will also be created much easier than the technical sports cars seen in Europe as one of the reasons they are cheaper. Due to their simplicity, Corvettes tend to be smaller and weigh less than sports cars manufactured abroad. The famous car designer Harley Earl was the person who originally created for the beloved Chevrolet sports car. He noted that the soldiers brought back to World War II, European sports cars and that America really is not. In 1953 Motorama show car, the Corvette that Earl was ultimately designed shocked the public.
Fiberglass body originally was brand new at that time. Performance of the car was similar to other currently produces the Chevrolet, but when it was released first Chevrolet V8 engine in 1955, it became stronger, and therefore very popular.
Since its introduction has been six different generations of the Corvette. The first version of the Corvette had about 290 hp and a relatively new fuel injection system. There were several options to it, such as power windows and convertible top. The second version of the Corvette is also very important, because it was known as the Corvette Sting Ray, and four-wheel disc brakes. There are only five left of the existence of the desired models.
One of the sports car the most popular of the 1960s is the Jaguar E-Type, which was produced in the years 1961 to 1974. The car, which is sometimes known as the Jaguar XK-E, has an important place for many sports car lists, because it is unique, powerful and secure has always been ahead. The cars were sold more than 14 years, and sold coupled with a low price, this lead to more than 70,000 E-types.
Over the years there have been three different versions of the car released. Initially the car was designed to be a race car. But gradually transformed into a sports car and was first presented to the public in Switzerland in 1961 as a car for long trips and a convertible. The audience enjoyed the car immediately, probably because of its shape. The aerodynamic shape of the car was unique for its time and strongly influenced other sports cars that came after him.
If the car was introduced in the U.S., it has been shown in its gold color and was accompanied by a popular actress named Marilyn Hanold.
For a car that was published in 1961, power was unthinkable. There were four disc brakes on racing cars at the time, an engine double overhead camshaft has been found and fully independent suspension at the rear. The price was then that $ 5,600, which proves the Jaguar E-type too.
When we think of Morgan sport cars, we do not normally associate with alternative fuel, low emission technology. Morgan is the oldest manufacturer of private cars in the world and has been pumping full fendered, minimalist sports cars for almost 100 years. You already use most of Morgan a bath Ash body, wood and front suspension designed in 1910, and for many non-experts, the current generation of 4 / 4 or more-4 of those who have left the system is not fifty years ago to distinguish.
But there are changes in the wind. Morgan has recently launched its alternate fuel cars life, and he could not be more different from the traditional model used by the facility in the Malvern Hills. In most respects, it has absolutely nothing in common with his Stablemates Tweedy.
"We tried to show that we are a company have a very high technical performance," Morgan says public relations director, Matthew Parkin. "It was hard when we go on conventional cars because there are strong associations with this car does not change. For the life of the project seemed a good opportunity to help reposition the company as a modern and capable, with a mix from high-tech materials and craftsmanship. "
And if you consider using the technology of sports car in the pursuit of clean, emissions-free transportation is not as exaggerated. Finally, all the sports of weight reduction of the car, performance engineering, and the best at least. And some automakers can charge when Morgan as the provision of return on investment. They may seem old and creaky, but over the years, Morgans have always respected their larger, heavier and more powerful competitors.
