Koenigsegg’s CCX marked their arrival as a certifiable super car maker in 2006, while the Agera, marks them as certifiably awesome. No one looked at the CCX and said it was perfect. In fact, Top Gear lamented the lack of rear downforce by not having a wing loudly enough, that they fixed with the CCX-R.

Chalk this video up as another reason why Germany is freaking awesome. Two Gallardo’s take to the Autobahn in this video with a lowly GTI as the chase car. He does his best to keep up, but the twin Italian supercars are ludicrously fast when they get underway. Watch the video below for some high-speed street racing action.

Unlike a certain other video I posted about the Boxster, this video is actually in English–British English even!–so I can understand it! Brilliant! Anyway, I’ve always thought the characterization of the Boxster as a “hairdressers car” was unfair. Like the similarly maligned MX5, I think most people who make that argument don’t much about cars.

Fans of Stuttgart’s handiwork would probably rather see GT3 Cup Cars ripping around a track rather than parked on one. But this video is still cool. Apparently it took almost 180 people 23 hours to get the 48 weapons-grade GT3 Cup cars into proper formation. I can’t get over how the finished product mirrors Porsche’s font.

In case you were wondering, stunt pilots have serious balls. I don’t have any idea where this came from, but it blew my mind. Sure, almost half of it is black screen, and the quality isn’t great, but what’s there shows a stunt plane getting within spitting distance of a Gallardo.

Ferrari’s F series is reliably the most literal example of bringing racing technology to the streets. So what else would you possibly do with an Enzo, an F50, F40 , and the incredibly cool 288 GTO? Donuts of course! This quick clip will give you a visual and auditory history lesson on Ferrari’s race cars for the road.

This is a great recap of this year’s season opener at Sebring, and an awesome introduction if you’re not familiar with the Porsche IMSA GT3 Cup. It’s the largest single-make series in the States, and it’s kind of like the American Le Mans Series’ farm league, allowing drivers a chance to sharpen their skills before jumping to the big show.
