the 750 Monza introduction on 1954 as a new four cylinder sports racer. Sporting a three litre version of the 500 Mondial's engine, the Monza was much more powerful, with 250 hp (186 kW) available, but barely heavier at 760 kg (1675 lb). The new-style body was penned by Pinin Farina and presaged the droop-nose look of the famed 250 GTO, but it was Scaglietti's 750 Monza, with its faired-in headrest suggesting the flowing Testa Rossa that drew attention.
Mike Hawthorn and Umberto Maglioli piloted their 750 Monza to victory at Monza on its very first race, giving the car its name. Although they were strong on the track, the Monza was unable to hold off the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR in 1955, allowing the Germans to seize the sports car championship that Ferrari claimed in 1954.

The Ferrari TR, or 250 Testa Rossa, is a race car model built by Ferrari in the 1950s and 60s. These cars dominated their arenas, with variations winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1958, 1960, and 1961. They were closely related to the rest of the Ferrari 250 line, especially the legendary 250 GTO.
In all, thirty-four 250 Testa Rossas were built, from 1956 through 1961. The phrase "Testa Rossa" means "red head." The most well known, the 250TR, was produced from 1957 to 1958; only 2 factory cars and 19 customer cars were built. After the 250 GTO, the 250 Testa Rossa is the second most valuable Ferrari model, often valued at more than US$8,000,000. A 1957 250 Testa Rossa sold on May 17, 2009 for $12,100,000, a new world record price for a car.

Named for the red valve covers, the original 250 TR had unorthodox bodywork by Scaglietti. The front fenders are visually separated from the central "nacelle" body, a design inspired Formula One racers, with air ducting across the front brakes and out through the open area behind the wheels, this model is often called the "Pontoon" TR. Olivier Gendebien and Phil Hill won the 24 Hours of Le Mans with this car in 1958.

The Ferrari GTO (often referred to as Ferrari 288 GTO) is an exotic homologation of the Ferrari 308 GTB produced from 1984 through 1986, designated GT for Gran Turismo and O for Omologato (homologation in Italian).
The Ferrari GTO was built to compete in the new Group B Race series and a minimum of 200 cars were required for homologation. However as only Ferrari and Porsche, with their 959, entered, the series was soon abandoned leaving just Group B Rally championship. The Porsche 959 (as the Porsche 961) only raced three times in Group B, but the 288 GTO never raced and all 272 cars built remained purely road cars.
Some of the 288 GTO's styling features were first displayed on a 308 GTB design exercise by Pininfarina shown at the 1977 Geneva Salon. This included the deep front spoiler, fender flares, rear lip spoiler, front lid radiator cooling louvers and quadruple driving lights.

After months of research, development, testing, and even more testing, James Glickenhaus’ Ferrari P4/5 Competizione is nearing its final stages as it prepares the finishing preparations for the 24 Hours of Nurburgring.
The car, which captured our attentions late last year, has undergone what can be considered a half-year’s worth of preparations and for our part, we’ve taken to meticulous lengths to give you any and all updates the team comes out with.
But now that the 24 Hours of Nurburgring is coming up at the end of the month - its scheduled for June 25 and 26 - all the preparations are finally coming to a head. So with just over 10 days remaining, the Glickenhaus team has unveiled the latest and maybe last set of updates of the P4/5 Competizione.
It’s a set of five videos that you can watch after the jump, giving us the first behind-the-scenes look at the development and testing of the car leading up to Nurburgring. Don’t expect any heart-pounding action with these videos, just a lot of mechanics working extra hard to give the car the best possible chance of competing at the Nurburgring.

Japan has had more than its fair share of natural disasters over the years, with scientists predicting that a "big" quake was bound to hit some time soon. That being said, no one could predict the massive 8.9 magnitude quake followed by the tsunami that recently struck the country. The footage was a sight that was horrifying to watch, but even more so to live through. Japanese companies are still struggling to regain their balance, but 3D Design is out to prove that the country will not just sit back and allow negative things to happen to them. They are out to make positive things happen for themselves. This realization is what made 3D Design, along with a number of Japanese and US tuning firms, create the BMW Z4 tuning package that illustrates that hope and determination.
The BMW Z4 by 3D Design by a number of players who contributed the many different elements of the vehicle. The overall design theme was worked on by WSTO and IND with 18" wheels from BBS inspired by the BMW’s M3 GT4 program and wrapped around Yokohama tires, size 235/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear. The exterior of the vehicle is transformed by 3D Design’s own aggressive, full carbon fiber aerodynamic package.
The inner workings of the vehicle were also changed with an upgraded turbo kit from ESS, a KW variant suspension system, and a handbuilt exhaust system from Eisenmann. Other features include a Dinan camber plate, an upgraded brake package from Brembo, and a gauge package from Stack.
The most inspirational aspect of the vehicle is emblazoned on the passenger side of the BMW Z4: "Don’t give up, Tohoku." I think it is clear that no one is giving up. In fact, they will end up being stronger than ever.

The origins of the Porsche Carrera GT laid on the drawing board in complete abandonment back in 2000 while Porsche shifted its manpower and resources toward the development and production of the Cayenne. The 2006 Carrera GT was slated as a race car and a stand alone prototype made it to the floor of the 2000 Geneva Motor Show.
There were rumors that a member of the Porsche family who held a seat on the board of directors did not want the Carrera GT to hit the track against the newly released Audi R8. Though the company officially cited rule changes in the FIA that enticed them to drop the project, the interest taken at the 2000 Geneva Motor Show that Porsche decided to re-launch the project as a street legal vehicle.
The designers returned to the table with new plans and modifications to create the new 2006 Porsche Carrera GT. Production began on the select few Carrera GTs in 2004. The planned 1,500 cars were reduced to 1,250, 340 of which were sold in the United States.
The Carrera GT began with a powerhouse 5.7 litre V-10 engine riding on 605 horse power. The factory released statistics that claimed she had a 0 to 60 mile per hour time of 3.9 seconds but road tests produced figures closer to 0 to 60 in under 3.5 seconds. The factory claims a top speed of 204 miles per hour and the road tests produced 211 miles per hour. The Carrera GT comes only with a 6 speed manual transmission, one of the few performance cars on the road in the last few years without the optional sequential shift transmission. New ground was broken with the installation of the ceramic composite clutch which is only 6.65 inches in diameter.
Lightweight is the name of the game when it comes to the styling and design of the Carrera GT. Following in the footsteps of the trendsetting 959, Porsche went for the lightest design possible while still maintaining body integrity. At 3043 pounds, the designers accomplished their goal and then powered her accordingly. She runs a beautiful 181.5 inches long and 75.6 inches wide. She stands 45.7 inches high.
Natural Porsche styling enhanced the face with a swept back hood, screaming the potential for speed and power with graceful lines that surpass other Porsches. The elevated wheel arches announce her potential with fanfare and the mid-engine concept is sweetly accentuated by the forward moving cockpit and long running midline between the door and the rear axel. Her overall styling can be described in one word. Sexy. Powerful. Graceful. Pick the word of your choice. It will fit.
Porsche came forth with an innovative design styling with the Carrera GT. By combining the qualities originally designed for the race car version and toning down only what was necessary to produce a production car, The Carrera GT is a hybrid of track performance and road desired features.
The large, functional air dams and side inlets combine form and function as they cool the 5.7 heart nestled under the carbon fiber rear hood. The 15 inch ceramic brake pads beautifully contrast against the 19 inch front tires and the 20 inch rear tires. In typical Porsche fashion, the braking system is equally as top of the line as her acceleration system, outfitted with Porsche's latest racing brake system. The entire drive train was lowered to lower the center of gravity, which of course led to sharper handling and responsiveness. The automated rear wing spoiler engages as needed at higher speeds- meaning 60 to 70 miles per hour- like most Porsche designs.
The chassis and suspension system was tested under the extreme conditions of the 24 hour LeMans, and thus it was carried over from the 911 GT1. The composite carbon-fiber chassis of the Carrera GT is identical to the tough tested 911 GT1. Double wishbone pushrod axels in the front and rear have individual guide sleeves and springs allowing for sensitive response and perfect spring balance regardless of speed. This is a huge improvement over the usual Porsche installed McPherson spring struts. Driver response is additionally enhanced thank to the agile power steering system.
The monocoque chassis were created from a bonded layer of carbon fiber tissue, aluminum, plastic honeycomb materials, and resin. This created lightweight but superiorly strong chassis. The chassis weight in at just above 220 pounds. A high tech stainless steel exhaust system and the addition of a modified intake system created a crisper engine sound, but also boosted output power by 3.76%. The steering wheel enhanced the customized interior with its unique ergonomically shaped precision and the final leather and carbon fiber rim touch. Even the shifter knob was perked up with exposed carbon fiber. No single detail was overlooked in the design and enhancement of the 2006 Carrera GT. Then again, how often can Porsche be accused of overlooking details?
Still locked in the competitive war with Ferrari, the Carrera GT is available for a mere $440,000 while the comparable Ferrari, the Ferrari Enzo, runs about $200,000 more. Canadians will pay closer to $550,000 for the Carrera GT.
The 2006 Carrera GT has become the new legend of super car technology, design, styling, and driver enticing performance. Production was stopped short due to the pressing desire to return resources to the Cayenne, and the simple rarity of this super car adds to its desirability. Porsche has long held the philosophy that when concentrating on the essentials the creation surpasses expectation, and of course the Carrera GT is no exception to this time tested rule.
Despite all of her remarkable design features and super car personality, Porsche prides itself on creating a super car that can be driven on a daily basis. The air conditioning, traction control, the GPS navigation system, an incredible Bose sound system, and a complimentary 5 piece matching leather luggage set were offered as standard equipment. She is performance and pleasure all wrapped up into a package that can't be denied.
