Ferrari's charity auction

When it comes to charity, Ferrari is very active and generous. The recent hurricane Sandy has caused a lot of damages and casualties in the american East Coast, and Ferrari didn't hesitated to show its support by doing a charity auction, in order to raise founds for the American Red Cross. Needless to say that the auction has been a great success by raising over 1.5$ million, the first F12 Berlinetta to be delivered in the USA has been sold to the auction for 1.125$  million, 345.000$ have been raised thanks to the donations of the dealers, and 50.000$ through online donations.

World's fastest street legal car!

The Ford GT is a pretty good supercar, but if you tune it, it can really be badass. Recently, a twin turbo Ford GT with the incredible power of 1700hp has set a new Guinness World Record, by accelerating up to 283.232 mph (455.82 km/h) in a standing mile! With this astonishing result, this Ford GT modified by Performance Power Racing is street legal, and so it's the world's fastest one!


The video of the world's fastest Ford GT didn't showed us much action about the record attempt, so why not, let's take a look at another recent attempt of another modified Ford GT, this time by Hennessey Performance which sets up a top speed record at Texas Mile with a 263.3 mph (423,74 km/h) run. In the video we can enjoy the onboard camera and an external shoot of the GT.
