Leave it to Forza 4 to give us even more reason to love this game. Fresh off of releasing a new downloadable content just a week ago, Turn 10 Studios has announced that another pack will be released on February 7th, one that includes past and present ALMS race cars.
The pack, deliberately called the "American Le Mans Series Pack," will include some of the finest ALMS machines we’ve ever seen, including the legendary 1991 Mazda 787B, the Platinum Motorsport Bentley Continental GT, the 1992 Alfa Romeo 155 Q4, the 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, and yes, even last year’s title-winning race car, the Audi R18 TDI.
Just like the February Launch Bonus Pack, the ALMS Pack will come with a total of ten cars, and will cost you 560 Microsoft Points when it hits Xbox Live next week.
We don’t need to remind you that this is one pack that you shouldn’t miss. But just to be sure, we’re here to say that THIS IS ONE PACK THAT YOU SHOULDN’T MISS!
The new Launch Bonus Pack includes a collection of ten cars previously available only to those Forza 4 players who had either pre-ordered from specific retail outlets, or picked up the game during its first run via the "Ship Bonus Car Pack." The new Launch Bonus Pack is available for Xbox Live and can be yours for 560 Microsoft Points.
Since Ford has yet to reveal any serious details from the testings performed on the new Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca, Sport-Auto Magazine took it upon themselves to run a performance test on the car at Hockenheim. Turns out, the Mustang has better braking performance than the Porsche 991 and is faster than the Aston Martin DBS, Audi R8, Ferrari California, and BMW M3 in Hockenheim.
The video starts off with burning rubber and a couple of drifts as a warmup, but then it moves on to showing the car in action on the race track. The Mustang’s potent 302 cubic-inch 5.0-liter V8 shreds through its 444hp, killing the vehicles listed above, but failing to outdo the BMW M5 F10.
Still, beating out the Porsche, Aston Martin, Audi, and BMW (the M3, not the M5) is enough to warrant some applause, especially considering the fact that the Boss is priced at $47,990, or less than half of the price paid for most of the cars on this list.
Icon original video is back with the part two of their amazing Motorcycle vs. Car Drift Battle video. In this video Nick ’Apex’ Brocha is back and this time he is next to his Empire teammate, Ernie Vigil. The two are riding some of the most amazing bikes in the world: a pair of crackling Triumph Speed Triples - built by Roaring Toyz for the sole purpose of going sideways.
The video has been shot on the the rolling hills of High Plains County that seems to be the ultimate drifting playground: low traffic, perfect asphalt and endless twisties have kept them busy resurfacing roads with their rear tires for weeks.
And as they were "bad boys" local police was on their way. Police officer Dan Brockett, the only man with the muscle to keep these two in sight is driving a 550 HP Ford Mustang Cobra built for speed.
The recent unveiling of the new 2013 Ford Mustang means a lot of things to a lot of people. But one of the most important, at least for those that aren’t satisfied with a standard version of the muscle car, is the introduction of some of Ford’s special edition packages for the Mustang.
One such is the California Special package, which has been one of the favorite trims for Mustang lovers everywhere. The full breadth of details surrounding the 2013 Mustang California Special have yet to be announced, but it appears that it will carry a number of unique additions similar to what Ford did with the 2012 version.
Among the noticeable modifications given to the 2013 Mustang California Special will include a unique front grille, side scoops, a new pedestal rear wing, a new rear diffuser, special black decals on the hood and side of the car, and just like the 2012 model, a special interior trim.
As far as performance modifications go, the 2012 Mustang California Special package kept the 412-horsepower, 5.0-liter V6 engine pf the standard model. For the 2013 model, we expect Ford to do the same, which means that the 2013 Mustang California Special will carry the same 420-horsepower, 5.0-liter V6 engine that the 2013 Mustang GT has.
Whatever the case may be, the 2013 Ford Mustang California Special package is fixing to be a great alternative choice for those that want something extra for their 2013 Mustang.
UPDATE 01/12/11: To be honest, we don’t understand why Ford just wouldn’t come out with an extensive batch of photos for the 2013 Mustang California Special. But hey, we’ll take any new photos any way we can get them, even if it’s in batches of three. Check out the new photos of the Mustang California Special in the gallery provided!
