1. Goodwood revival 2023

What it is:
A 3-day festival in the UK for types of racing cars and bikes between the years of 1948-1966.

The rundown:

  • Lots of classic cars and racing

  • A Ferrari 250 GTO caught on fire, thankfully all is good

  • Themes included:

    • 75 years of Lotus

    • Carroll Shelby

    • A single-marque race of Porsche 911s all from 1965

  • And over 100 000 people went!!

If you wanna see the madness - 11 wild moments (youtube video).

Here are some of my favourite pictures from it

And do you know what???
Next year I’m gonna go and film it all for you.

I want to give away free tickets for the event in 2024!

If you want it, I’ll make it happen!
Or we can keep things standard if preferred 🤝 

2. Catching air in a lambo??

There’s this crazy UK fella, Mark McCann.

Well, he bought a 2023 Lambo Sterrato which is:

  • suitable for off-roading

  • v10, 600 horses

  • absolutely beautiful

And he used it as intended and jumped it (video)

How wild though, can’t believe I just typed that 😆 

He’s also based in the UK sooooo maybe I go meet him???

3. ⚡️EV news

1/ The Mustang Mach E

  • power: 385kW

  • torque: 880N

  • sound: none

2/ This little thing did 0-60 in under 1 second!!
(watch here)

  • 326 bhp

  • only weighs 309 pounds (140kg)

  • built by students 🤯 

How???
When I was a student, I could only build bad habits and debt…

3/ Battery trouble for the ‘23 Porsche Taycan

  • New battery sealant isn’t sufficient

  • The recall covers 4777 Taycans in the US

After thorough review, we’ve determined that, in a small number of cases, there is a chance of moisture entering the car’s battery pack

We’re almost done.
