Ultima GTR: Unsung SuperCar

I read about cars all the time. I know whats coming out, whats new, what car companies are trying to implement. I had to be reminded of the small British company Ultima Sports. They manufacture cars with one thing in mind, speed. Record breaking speed. Their top car, the GTR720, weighs in at 2,183 lbs, has a 727 bhp engine, and can accelerate from 0-60 in 2.6 seconds, 0-100 in 5.3 seconds and most importantly 100-0 in 3.6 seconds. That is ridiculously fast. I mean not even the Bugatti Veyron can keep up with that. And whats the price of all of this speed? In the price range of $100k. That is incredibly on so many levels.

Economic Oil

If you own a car, thought about owning a car, ever wondered why our nation is fighting in the middle east or why space exploration is important then you are actually being a meaningful part of our environment. Go you. If that shit doesn’t matter to you…well shame on you. I ran into this video and I must say it does a great job of explaining how oil works in our economy, so I thought I would share it here. Its your one moment of caring about something other than the Taco Bell menu, what Kim Kardashian is doing, literally, or any of the other stupid shit you normally care about. Check this video out and help restore faith in humanity.

New Xbox in 2013?…Maybe So

IGN is reporting that the electronic company that built the original Xbox and the Xbox 360 has already begun building the new Xbox 720. And even though Xbox representatives are not saying anything, it kinda makes sense for them to start now as to allow the top game developers access so they too can start developing games for the new system. This new Xbox is said to be revolutionary with its GPU based on ATI’s Radeon HD 6670, 1080p HD output, and SSD hard drives. Speculation puts it as being up to be 6 times faster than the Xbox 360. I can only hope the games will be at least 5 times cooler than they are now so I can justify spending the hundreds of dollars I will spend on this console.
