New 2017 Ford Raptor – Ken Block

Catching Air With the Ford Raptor

The new 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor is the most anticipated version of the truck since it was released. With impeccable suspension and a hearty powerhouse, it’s going to be a mental truck.

The new Raptor will see its EcoBoost engine creating 450 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque. These power figures are much higher than the V8’s rating of 411 hp and 434 lb-ft of torque.

To show all of this power off, Ken Block took the truck out to some fresh snow and did what he does best: go absolutely nuts. He took the truck sideways, utilized the suspension to its fullest extent and even caught some air. Check out the video below to see what the new truck is capable of in the white stuff.

Jaguar F-TYPE SVR vs Corvette Z06

Rev Battle – Jaguar F-TYPE SVR vs Corvette Z06

On one hand, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is an American monster that’s powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter LT4 engine. That’s quite the displacement. On the other hand, you have the F-TYPE, which signals the revival of the brand’s two-seater sports car design. Powering this car is a supercharged 5.0-liter V8.

While there is quite a difference in the size of these engines, they both still sound close to heavenly. To see just how well these two stack up against each other when revved, Motorsport Magazine parked the two side-by-side and started laying down on their throttles. Which one ended up sounding better?

How to Design Your Own McLaren 570S

One of my favorite aspects about racing video games is that fact that I can customize my own vehicle. Whether it’s a supercar or SUV, it’s always fun to design and drive your own virtual car. But, what’s more fun than that is designing and driving your own real supercar. And, thanks to online configurators, that is possible.

McLaren’s configurator for the 570S is a perfect example of being able to customize your own supercar. From the paint to the trim, just about everything can be customized within this configurator. Looking to customize your 570S even further? That’s where MSO will come in and get the job done.

So how does one configure a 570S? Here’s the step-by-step process.

Configure Your McLaren 570S

Paint

There are loads of colors to choose from. Personally, I went with Fire Black.

Wheels and Brakes

Within the Wheels and Brakes section, you can change the shoes of the 570S. You can select the wheels, wheel finish, brakes and calipers (as well as the caliper finish) and tires.

Exterior

The Exterior section is where you can change just about every bit of trim on the outside of the 570S. For me, it’s carbon fiber everything.

Interior

You’re going to spend a lot of time inside your 570S, so you might as well get it to your liking. Luckily, McLaren provides a vast array of options for your to choose from when it comes to the cabin of the 570S.

Safety and Security

If you’re going to buy a new 570S, you might as well protect. It’s within the Safety and Security section that you can select which options will help you protect your car, like a Volumetric Alarm and Parking Sensors.

Practical

Just about everything in this section I checked off, except for an ashtray. In the Practical section is where you’ll find all the extra that will make driving your 570S even more convenient than before.

MSO – McLaren Special Options

As mentioned before, McLaren MSO branch will take your 570S to the next level through customization. However, you will need to consult MSO in order to get the custom designs you desire. However, the time spent working with MSO to design a perfect 570S is well worth the time.

You’re Done!

You did it! Now you can download a PDF that describes your 570S that you just built. You can also choose to Register Your Interest or find your closest McLaren Retailer to inquire further.
