REVIEW – 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO #24
Month: September 2019
Chiron tops 490 km/h
On August 02, 2019, an almost stock Bugatti Chiron reached insane 490.484 km/h (304.77 mph). Piloted by Andy Wallace, the record took place at Ehra-Lessien.
According to Bugatti’s CEO, Stephan Winkelmann, this was the last speed record for cars from Molsheim. Apparently Bugatti feels that they have proven that their cars are fast…
MOD – Porsche 911 R
One of the things that bothered me at least a little about my 911 R was the absent “Porsche stripe”. The stripe was an accessory that you would buy at a Porsche dealer, and then apply to your car. But as it’s common knowledge, a car with go-fast-stripes is always faster. Therefore, my car needed the stripes. To fix that, a few months ago the Earl of Northumberland graciously sent me some spares stripes that I could use.
But to be honest I kind of forgot about them, always waiting for a decal job to show up so I would do everything at once. Well, yesterday the time came, and it was a VERY simple decal job. Decals in place and like magic my 911 R got faster 🙂
