The National Corvette Museum has named the entire month of December “Dollar Days” for residents of Kentucky who visit the Museum. All month long, Kentucky residents can tour the Museum for a $1.00 admission per person, and will only need to show a Kentucky drivers license to take advantage of the special offer. Children will be admitted at the $1.00 price with adults presenting the Kentucky identification.
The Museum features over 70 Corvettes, from the 1953 - the first Corvette to capture the hearts of America, to one-of-a-kind prototypes, the only 1983 in existence and historic Corvettes normally unavailable to the general public. A special Camaro exhibit with more than a dozen examples of the model is on display throughout December as well. Visitors can sit behind the wheel of a new Corvette and Camaro, race against the clock with the interactive Pit Crew Challenge, and take a drive in the new educational Driving Simulators.
“Dollar Days” is the Museum’s way of giving back to Kentucky residents to thank them for their support and gives them an opportunity to see first-hand why the Corvette is one of the state’s greatest resources and now the official state sports car of Kentucky. “We are proud to be able to showcase our Museum dedicated to this extraordinary automobile and celebrate, educate and preserve Corvette’s legendary past and future,” states NCM Executive Director Wendell Strode. “Each visit to the Museum is different because things are ever changing, and guests visiting in December will be able to see our new Camaro display. We look forward to welcoming our Kentucky friends.” Visitors can also take a chance to win a 2011 Corvette or Camaro for only $10 and do some holiday shopping in the Corvette Store.
The National Corvette Museum is the ‘Gateway to All Things Corvette’ and a member-driven, 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation. Weekly news on the latest Corvette developments, racing updates, event features and raffles are available by subscribing to “NCM eNews” at: corvettemuseum.org/ncmenews. Dedicated to the mission of celebration, education and preservation, the Museum is open seven days a week, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT - located at Exit 28 on I-65 in Bowling Green, KY.

Mercedes Benz CLS 63 AMG 2012
Mercedes presentó el CLS 63 AMG con motivo del Salón de Los Ángeles, sin embargo este auto recien comenzará a venderse a mediados del próximo año.
La adaptación al marco deportivo AMG se produce con el paquete aerodinámico que rediseña los parachoques y el difusor trasero, con unas llantas de aleación de 19” y con cuatro salidas de escape. Las luces diurnas de tipo LED ganan mucho más protagonismo al llenar completamente los respiraderos laterales del frontal.
El motor desarrolla una potencia de 525 CV, se trata de un nuevo V8 de 5.5 litros con doble turboalimentación y lleva una caja de cambio automático SpeedShift MCT de siete velocidades.
La velocidad máxima ha sido limitada a 250 Km/h, aunque obviamente supera esa velocidad y llega de 0 a 100 Km/h en 4.4 segundos. Para el que quiera más existe el AMG Performance Package que aumenta la potencia a 558 CV, incrementa el par máximo hasta los 800 Nm, reduce en una décima el 0-100 Km/h y sube la velocidad máxima hasta los 299 Km/h.

Ferrari Enzo Wallpapers
The Enzo Ferrari is a 12 cylinder mid-engine berlinetta named after the company's founder, Enzo Ferrari. It was built in 2002 using Formula One technology, such as a carbon-fibre body, F1-style electrohydraulic shift transmission, and Carbon fibre-reinforced Silicon Carbide (C/SiC) ceramic composite disc brakes. Also used are technologies not allowed in F1 such as active aerodynamics and traction control. After a downforce of 775 kg (1,709 lb) is reached at 355.6 km/h (221 mph) the rear wing is actuated by computer to maintain that downforce.
The Enzo's V12 engine is the first of a new generation for Ferrari. It is based on the architecture of the V8 found in sister-company Maserati's Quattroporte, using the same basic architecture and 104 mm (4.1 in) bore spacing. This design will replace the former architectures seen in V12 and V8 engines used in most other contemporary Ferraris. The 2005 F430 is the second Ferrari to get a version of this new powerplant.

Así quedó el hombre más poderoso de la Fórmula 1 tras ser Golpeado
El directivo, de 80 años, fue tratado en un hospital después de ser atacado a golpes y puntapiés por cuatro hombres al llegar el miércoles por la noche a las oficinas de Knightsbridge de Formula One Holdings, dijo la policía londinense el viernes.
La policía dijo que Ecclestone iba acompañado por una mujer, que la prensa británica identificó como su novia brasileña Fabiana Flosi, cuando fue atacado a eso de las 10:30 de la noche.
Ecclestone, quien pese a su fortuna no tiene guardaespaldas, sufrió varias heridas y golpes al ser atacado y despojado de relojes y por valor de 200.000 libras (315.000 dólares).
“Cuando estaba tirado en el piso, oí los gritos de ayuda de Fabiana, recibí una o dos paradas en la cara y perdí el conocimiento. Cuando lo recobré, había sangre por todas partes de mi cabeza. Fue un ataque estúpido e innecesario porque ya les habíamos entregado todo”, comentó en declaraciones al Daily Express.

Audi R8 Spyder
The Audi R8[3] (Typ 42) is a sports car with a longitudinally mounted mid-engine, and uses Audi's trademark quattro permanent all-wheel drive system.It was introduced by the German automaker Audi AG in 2006.
The car was exclusively designed, developed, and manufactured by Audi AG's high performance private subsidiary company, quattro GmbH, and is based on the Lamborghini Gallardo platform. The fundamental construction of the R8 is based on the Audi Space Frame, and uses an aluminium monocoque which is built around space frame principles. The car is built by quattro GmbH in a newly renovated factory at Audi's 'aluminium site' at Neckarsulm in Germany.
In 2005, Audi announced that the name of the successful Audi R8 race car would be used for a new road car in 2007, the Audi R8, based on the Audi Le Mans quattro concept car, appearing at the 2003 International Geneva Motor Show, and 2003 Frankfurt International Motor Show. The R8 road car was officially launched at the Paris Auto Show on 30 September 2006. There was some confusion with the name, which the car shares with the 24 Hours of Le Mans winning R8 Le Mans Prototype (LMP). 6-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner Jacky Ickx described the R8 as "the best handling road car today".
The Audi R8 is used as a safety car in Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters and British Superbike Championship racing series.

The Ford GT is a mid-engine two-seater supercar. Ford Motor Company produced the Ford GT for the 2005 to 2006 model years. The designers drew inspiration from Ford's classic GT40 race cars of the 1960s and because of nearly identical styling, the new Ford GT is sometimes mistaken for its 1960s counterpart.

Ford Raptor
Background
The Raptor is a modified extended cab F-150 truck intended for high speed off road use. Inspired by the prerunners used by high-dollar off road teams, it brings a variety of off road features. Developed by the Special Vehicle Team (SVT) at Ford, the Raptor was used as a test bed for further engineering validation for the new 6.2L V8. The truck itself ran in 2008 Baja 1000 where it finished 3rd in class. With 5300 confirmed orders, first year Raptor sales have exceeded 1999's Lightning production numbers.
[edit] Engine
The Raptor is powered by an updated version of the regular F-150’s 5.4-liter Triton V8 three-valve engine, delivering 320 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque. As of Spring 2010, Ford's new 6.2L 2v V8, which delivers 411HP and 434ft-lbs of torque, is an optional powerplant for the Raptor.
[edit] Body, Frame, and Features
From the A-pillar forward, the Raptor has different sheetmetal from other F-150s and is bereft of the blue oval badge in the grille. SVT widened the track by 7 in., and so its 5.5-ft box is unique to the Raptor as well[2]. The Raptor's height is 2 in. over a standard Supercrew. It also features new, internal bypass shocks, designed by Fox Racing. These shocks are allegedly designed for a smooth ride on-road that stiffens up when the driver reaches high speeds off-road, in essence what external bypass shocks do, without the inherint packaging problems.
The Raptor has new leaf springs and shocks, new front upper- and lower-A-arms, and a wider, thicker-walled rear axle. It's the first Ford with hill-descent control and comes with a differential locker that lets the driver keep it locked at high speeds.
Towing capacity is reported to be up to 6000 lb with a 1000-lb payload. Interior changes include high-bolster seats, a special steering wheel, and redesigned center console. Ford originally promised a "value price" and a multiyear run--final pricing came in at $42,000.00 for 2010.
