Based on the latest on hottest RX-8 ever, the R3, the Speed Source # 70 Castrol Syntec Mazda RX-8 is obviously no ordinary over-the-counter RX-8. Competing in the Rolex Series GT Class competition and piloted by Sylvain Tremblay, Nick Ham, Jonathan Bomarito and David Haskell, this car won its class in the latest edition of the Rolex 24 at Daytona. I just thought it would be nice to point out Mazda's racing efforts. Oh, and if they need an extra driver or test pilot or bench-warmer...

Spyker C8 Aileron

Every time I lay eyes on a Spyker, I change my mind about how it looks; in Detroit, it was stunning, in New York, it seemed chintzy and poorly put together. My buddy Nauman Farooq took it for a spin a while back and he seems to have loved it. One way or another, no one will ever say that you blend in with your surroundings. With 400 hp from a 4.2L mid-mounted V8, the Aileron should prove to be entertaining to drive.

Hennessey in general is really making a name for itself. The 2011 Venom GT promises to be a killer in the performance supercar category when it becomes available next year. As for the Camaro or Camaros, only your budget can limit the amount of rubber you can scorch. With packages ranging from 600 to 1,000 hp, few will challenge you in a straight line or... on a track. Depending on the selected options, your Camaro will be able to pull just over 1 G of lateral acceleration, that's some serious grip!
