Scion tC dragster debuts this weekend
Christian Rado of WORLD Racing will debut his dragging tC in the Pro Outlaw Front Wheel Drive class at the June 4-5 NDRA Xbox Event at Florida's Moroso Motorsports Park. The racing tC is powered by a 2.7-liter 3RZFE Toyota engine producing 1,200 horsepower on methanol. A second tC is in the works to run the All-Motor/Pro Stock class in 2006 to be driven by Leslie Durst. Let's see if the tC can take the drag world by storm like it did the compact coupe market.

- Bugatti Veyron still in the works; Koenigsegg who? Bugatti wants you to know they're going to keep on keepin' on with the Veyron, the extensively delayed AWD stupercar that was supposed to offer 1000-hp, but now will only crank out 987. Is it that har ...
- 2005 Nissan Frontier inspired by big bro Titan Inspired in the sense of "I'm going to steal all of your good parts." But even though you may have heard that stealing is bad (mmmkay?), the Frontier benefits greatly from it. It's now a contender in ...
- VW Crossfox brings up concerns over what's going on in your sick mind I think those of you most willing to imagine the secret lives of cars can easily fathom a so-called "threesome" involving a VW Touareg, a Kia Sportage, and a Toyota Echo. If that kind of sheer moral b ...
