BMW E92 | AUTO WORLD

Car tuner Racing Dynamics (RDSport) presents a tuned version of the E92 BMW 335i Coupe with 414HP over a flag 420HP M3, project called as the RS35 BiTurbo. The Milan-based tuning fixed that is also known as RDSport, has upgraded the 335i’s turbocharged engine with electronic modifications along with a liberated-flowing intake and a bigger, more-efficient intercooler resultant to a crop of 414HP and 404 lb/ft of torque.

The tuning house did not relate performance figures for the RS35 BiTurbo, but we group that it will be a tad quicker than the horde 306HP 335i Coupe that goes from 0 to 100km/h (62mph) in 5.5 seconds versus the M3′s 4.8 seconds. To recover handling, Racing Dynamics has equipped the 335i Coupe with “custom-valved” Bilstein struts, stiffer springs and opposing-spin bars. The Bavarian coupe that rides on new 20-edge multi-portion wheels shod in Pirelli P Zero Nero rubber, now sits 25 mm reduce in the front and 20mm lower at the rear.

On the unlikely the RS35 BiTurbo is distinguished by the new carbon-fiber front abundant with bigger openings for better engine and brake cooling with an exposed carbon housing for fog lights. A new set of face skirts and revised rear apron with patio exhaust cut outs along with a roof and body spoiler total the changes.

As for the interior, upgrades enter the RS Pedal Set in machined aluminum, aluminum hand brake defend, logo carpet set, a new speedometer and RDSport crests in the steering controls.

Bentley AERO ACE Sports Car Concept Next-Gen Speed VI

The Bentley Aero Ace Speed VI is the brainchild of auto designer Gabriel Tam and has been inspired by the original Speed 6 driven to victory by the Bentley Boys of the ’20s at Le Mans. The next-generation Speed VI is an overtly sporting vehicle with the raw aggression of a pure blood racer, while retaining the refined elegance of past Bentleys.

The design was inspired to signify the raw aggression of a sporting vehicle, while paying close attention to the aerodynamic properties of each element of the vehicle. The adjustable aerofoil / spoiler feature double wishbone suspension to maximize the efficiency.

Close attention during the designing period to refine the aerodynamic properties of the vehicle has resulted in enhanced efficiency and increased speed. Additionally, a double wishbone suspension has been incorporated within the adjustable spoiler to further better its efficiency.

The twin rear heat exhaust-ducts of this zero-emission concept car are fed by the air intake used to keep electric motors cool. Electric motors are located towards the rear of the vehicle, while the battery cells are located towards the front in an even arrangement to balance the weight. The electric motor cooling system features air intake and incorporates diffusers that help air flow to create down-force.

The wheels are semi enclosed that improves aerodynamics, while the 1+1 seating arrangement offers focused driving experience. Also, the diffusers aid air flow in this vehicle creates the down-force, the battery pack is equally distributed and the vehicle has a 1+1 seating layout for finest weight distribution.

Chevrolet CORVETTE Racing at Sebring 2010

Back in August when General Motors introduced the all-new GT2 class Corvette C6.R, it ran downsized 6.0-liter version of the 7.0-liter V8 from the long-dominant GT1 car. At the launch, Corvette Racing program manager Doug Fehan told us the 6.0-liter was just an interim engine. With revised GT rules on tap for 2010, GM was already planning a brand-new engine for its race Vette.

Unlike the 6.0/7.0, which is a ground-up race engine that only shares basic architectural dimensions with the production small block, the 2010 C6.R's V8 is a new 5.5-liter unit that will indeed be derived from the production engine found in roadgoing Corvettes. In fact, the 5.5-liter race engine will be built at GM's Performance Build Center alongside ZR1 and Z06 V8s.

Fehan has confirmed that the 5.5 is running on the dyno and will make its race debut at the 12 Hours of Sebring in March. We don't have any additional details on the new engine yet, although we were told earlier that it is based on the next-generation production small-block, which we expect to see in the Corvette soon

Corvette Racing is preparing for the season-opening round of the 2010 American Le Mans Series, the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, to be held in Sebring, Fla., on March 20. Forty years ago, Sebring set the stage for some highly competitive racing among Cobras, Ferraris, and Corvettes.

Difficult weather and trying mechanical situations added a challenging dimension to an exciting event. In light of recent C5-R successes and the impending start of yet another season of American Le Mans Series competition, a look back at the effort put forth by the privateer Corvette camp lends amazing perspective.

Corvette Racing will compete in the GT (formerly GT2) class against entries representing Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Jaguar, and Ford. Corvette Racing drivers Johnny O'Connell, Jan Magnussen, and Antonio Garcia are testing the No. 3 Compuware Corvette C6.R. Oliver Gavin, Olivier Beretta, and Emmanuel Collard are testing the No. 4 Compuware Corvette C6.R.
