Interview - TECHART CEO, Thomas Behringer

IN Porsche, 911, Turbo, Techart, Autovox

Ever wondered what makes a car like the TECHART GT Street so awesome? Here are some clues: Power, style, attention to detail and creativity. Qualities found in the car, and the man behind it.

In order to convert such power into efficient propulsion, the front axle is equipped with a mechanical, multi-plate limited-slip differential. This helps reduce wheel slip when there are very high lateral forces under acceleration, for example, or changes in the texture of the road surface. It is also ideal for forays onto the race track.

Opel Corsa OPC Nurburgring Edition

IN Opel, Corsa, OPC, NÃ¼rburgring

Looks like everyone is having a NÃ¼rburgring Edition of some sort nowadays. The limited Opel Corsa OPC is one of them, just 500 units of this raw pocket-rocket powerhouse will be available.

The Special Stages (SS) challenged the driving and recovery skills in the two classes of competitor teams (Modified and Special) to the maximum as they shake, rattled and rolled their machines. If the Friday Prologue SS was tough with mechanical problems and broken egos, the following two days were tougher for man and machine. On the second day, the action shifted to the banks of the Isonzo river and the hills of Farra. It was time for very technical maneuvers which required nerves of steel even from the most seasoned teams, but everyone was on full throttle with passion and played out the SS with true grit.

The eye of the beholder falls immediately on the widened wing that takes in the rear passenger doors so elegantly that the vehicle seems more like a coupÃ©. In addition the side skirts were made to fit the design and connect the line of the front apron with the rear of the vehicle - on which is enthroned a completely new form of rear spoiler that receives the optimum air stream from the roof spoiler and that ideally fits the vehicle's performance.

Would you believe me if I told you that you can walk into a Mitsubishi showroom and buy this EVO X, exactly the way you see it here? Well you can, and Mitsubishi will give you a warranty too!

With appropriate optimization in engine technology, the maximum output of the 3.0-litre power unit is increased to 340 hp with peak torque at 450 Nm, increasing briefly with the Overboost function to 500 Nm. The outstanding power and performance of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is is expressed in particular by the significant increase in pulling power and muscle to be clearly experienced in all situations, accelerating from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds.
