1935 Bugatti 57SC Atlantic
July 26th, 2008
The 1935 Bugatti 57SC Atlantic was built to be a high performance car. Bugatti has plans for it to be mass produced without losing any of its inherent qualities and without losing its exclusive rights.
Under the hood the 57SC was equipped with an 8-cylinder 3.3 liter engine that features twin overhead cams and was set at a 90 degree incline. It was built with 15” wheels and drum brakes. It is true that it was a simple design - but for its time the quality was high and none like it could be found.
Pagani Zonda R
July 25th, 2008
The Pagani Zonda R was made to be driving around the racetrack with the ultimate performance and not bound by any rules. The only rules they wish to follow are those of safety -which could never and should never be crossed.
The drawings for the Zonda R were first designed and ready in September of 2006. Designers sought hard to seek the approval of Mercedes-AMG to supply them with a powerful engine. The engine was indeed built by the racing specialists at Mercedes AMG, where the championship winning DTM cars are born, as well as the CLK GTR, probably the most devastating and effective weapon ever to compete in the GT series. From it’s engine the Zonda R borrows the basic architecture including an ingenious dry sump allowing a low centre of gravity.
