Hey there,
Some RC news here for you all:
> HPI is releasing their new firestorm!
It's looking like it's going to be pretty sweet. Their new G 3.0 engine looks pretty awesome, especially the new power transfer to the transmission and it's optimal cooling design. Yea! I can't wait to be able to do a review on it. You can read more about it at HPI's site:
New Firestorm Pics - Click Here
> World Finals - 2006 coming up!
I love this part of the season... the final showdown haha. It's gonna be a good one, race kicks off right after x-mas time. 72 registered racers from around the world right now, and only the top 5 will be listed. It's held on the Brisbane track in Australia. Go USA!!! You can learn more about the world finals here.
> Website Update
The pictures in the flash viewer are almost complete with individual information. Once you click on them, you'll be able to learn more about that product - great feature I think. The whole premise of the site is to help beginning RC enthusiasts to try and understand what being a 'professional' is all about. Traxxas is where its at if you want to go pro - but I will also recommend HPI Racing, Team Associated and Team Losi as well.

Renault’s Twingo communicating city car concept
October 2, 2006 After previewing its spectacular Nepta Concept with motor-driven gull wing doors in the weeks leading up to the Paris Show, we figured Renault had played all its cards, but we were very wrong. At the opening of the show, Renault trotted out the youth-culture-inspired Twingo Concept, the most wired and desirable city car we’ve yet seen. The centre console features a USB port as well as sockets for devices like an Apple iPod and the Nokia Smartphone. A mixing deck built into the dashboard is ideal for partying with friends. The tiny city car is no slouch – powered by a turbocharged 1.2-litre engine delivering 73kW (100hp), the Twingo combines efficiency, response, power and environmental friendliness.

Supercharged Exige S sets sights on US roads
Over here in the UK it’s not uncommon to see the odd Lotus Elise and - more rarely - Exige bombing down the motorway or whipping around country lanes. The constantly evolving sportscar is renowned for having close-to-perfect handling and sweet, sweet driving dynamics, and has a loyal following amongst owners and enthusiasts. So it always comes as something of a surprise that drivers in the USA are less blessed when it comes to model choice - hence the unbridled excitement of Jalopnik and Autoblog (amongst many) at the news that the hardcore Exige S, the supercharged variant of the coupé, is heading across the Atlantic.
Top Gear: Volvo S60 R
In this classic Top Gear segment, Jeremy Clarkson takes the Volvo S60 R out for a road test. This sports sedan boasts a turbocharged 2.5L engine that produces 300hp @ 5500rpm and 295 lb-ft torque @ 1950rpm. Video after the jump.

September 25, 2006 One of the many wonderful new jiggers seen at last week’s Automechanika trade show in Frankfurt was a tire pressure monitoring wheel sensor that should open up new service potential for tire dealers and independent service workshops. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System Sensors detect changes in tire pressure and alert the driver. Each wheel rim is fitted with a pressure sensor, which constantly transmits tire pressure data by a radio signal to a control unit.read more.
