Pagani Zonda F

Pagani Zonda F

Any supercar that can drive around the infamous Nurburgring Nordschleife will become a legend but only one will hold the top title - fastest production car. This title will give the supercar fame and recognition - that is until someone comes and knocks it down.
The Pagani Zonda F, named after F1 driver Juan Manuel Fangio, is a supercar that has taken this record to new heights and set a new laprecord for Supersportcars at the famous Nürburgring Nordschleife race track. The Pagani Zonda F Clubsport has shaved nearly two tenths of a second off the Carrera GT’s time to post a sizzling lap in 7:27:82. It may not sound like much of a margin, but when you’re in the stratosphere, every inch counts.
For those of you not familiar with the Zonda it is made up of more carbon fiber than most Formula 1 cars. The Zonda F has proven it’s the ultimate race car for the street. Statistics like 1.5G lateral acceleration - thanks to its massive downforce generation, a 7.3L V12, and 2700 man-hours to complete construction. This supercar sprints through the 0-62 mph mark in a staggering 3.5 seconds, has a top speed over 214 mph (possibly 220+ with a downforce adjustment).
But all that work was worth it in the end when it became the fastest production supercar. Maybe we can even get our hands on it ourselves and take it for a test drive. Maybe then we could be ‘King Of The Road’. That’ gonna be tough though, as only 25 Zonda F cars were slated to be built, still not US compatible.

Hummer H3

Hummer H3

The newest addition to the Hummer family is the Hummer H3 and this car is also the smallest of the family members. Compared to its predecessors, the Hummer H3 is less of an extreme car and more of an ordinary SUV – at least to the naked eye. The Hummer 3 - H3 has however received standing ovations for its capacity in rough terrain; this car will take your kids to soccer practice even if you have to driver through a flooded field in Uzbekistan to get them there. The H3 is equipped with a 3.5-liter 5-cylinder engine that can develop 220 hp and 225 foot-pounds of torque and its road handling capabilities are excellent. On the downside, the Hummer H3 is uses up a lot of gas compared to other SUVs. The Hummer H1 and H2 are both infamous for their fuel consumption and the H3 will do not better than 18 miles per gallon on the highway. The MPG for city driving is 14, which is not very impressive. Another difficulty noted by some Hummer H3 drivers is poor visibility. This is not a problem if you are fairly tall, but shorter persons can have a hard time keeping an eye on certain angles while driving your H3. This is naturally a problem for road safety, especially when driving in areas with a lot of bikers and pedestrians.
