A few years ago Top Gear had a little competition called the Car Olympics. They pitted various cars from different nations against each other in some unusual tests. Here’s a video of the long jump, featuring a AMC Pacer, Citroen 2CV, and several other small cars. You might be surprised at the country whose car wins this one.

Here’s a great video of the Bugatti EB 110, a four wheel drive supercar that also featured an engine with 4 turbochargers. Also included in the video is a Lamborghini Diablo SE30 and a Ferrari F50. This video may be 10 years old, but the cars are still way ahead of their time.

I love watching heavy old cars going real fast. It just takes so much power to move all that weight, and if you’ve ever been to the local track you know you can hear all that power screaming out the exhaust.

I don’t know who Jim Pranis is, but he builds one hell of a nice Dodge Charger. This 68 Charger does the 1/4 mile in less than 9 seconds. Watch the vid:
