Crank up the volume and checkout this sick video of Chris Harris driving the most amazing car I’d love to have as my daily driver, the McLaren F1 GTR Video. This custom race car air restricted to 600hp (racing regulations) and weighing 1100kgs (~2400lbs) delivers one of the sexiest sounds and unlimited amounts of fear when unleashed off the track on regular streets

After the McLaren F1 GTR was launched in 1995 it took the 1st, 3rd, 4rth, 5th, and 13th place in the 24 hours Le Mans race which was a huge achievement. After its huge success in this race the McLaren team went further and produced 9 more vehicles in the same year. More photos of the McLaren F1 here.

Need to find a gift for the car enthusiast on your holiday shopping list, but are operating on a very tight budget? If so, don’t freak out just yet. Just because cars themselves are expensive doesn’t mean that you can’t find budget-friendly parts and add-ons that will make an automotive enthusiast jump for joy. Below, you’ll find three gift suggestions each presented for their low total costs. By that, we not only mean that the initial expense for the merchandise is on the low side for automobile upgrades, but the full cost is low entirely. That means no pricey professional installation or other sidebars that might add hundreds or thousands on to the actual price of the piece. That way, you can stay on budget, and still provide an incredible gift to the car lover on your list.

Muscle cars, it is generally agreed, can be blamed on Oldsmobile. That's right. The dowdy "This is not your father's Oldsmobile" kind of car started the muscle revolution in 1949. Oldsmobile took an intermediate car and replaced the V-6 engine with a high compression overhead V-8 for more power. From Musclecars magazine, “The idea of putting a full-size V8 under the hood of an intermediate body and making it run like Jesse Owens in Berlin belongs to none other than Oldsmobile…” Looking to start and capture a market, Chrysler introduced the C300 in 1955. Advertised as the most powerful car ever sold, the C300 came out as a limited edition with a 300 bhp engine. Driven with the pedal to the floor the car reached 60 mph in 6.9 seconds and could reach speeds up to 130 mph.
