Ferrari just rolled out the 296 GT Modificata, a track-only machine built for members of its Club Competizioni GT program. It starts from the 296 GT3 Evo race car but ignores every regulation that normally holds those machines in check. Production stays extremely limited, and every buyer gets two years of access to twelve rounds of private track events at circuits around the world.
Rain slicked the Strada Borromea on Mottarone mountain last week, umbrellas dotted the roadside, and a low orange coupe with a mid-mounted V8 barked its way up the nine-kilometer stretch of Italian hillside. The Genesis Magma GT Concept, still officially a design study, proved it can do more than sit pretty under show lights. It rolled out for its first proper dynamic outing at the 2026 Tutto Bene Hillclimb near Lake Maggiore, sharing the closed course with 84 other exceptional machines in an event that skips stopwatches and rankings in favor of pure driving pleasure.
Mat Watson of CarWow lined up the heaviest Porsche ever built against a Ferrari 296 GTS to settle a simple question. Does massive electric power beat a lighter hybrid supercar when the lights go green?
Travis Pastrana has spent a lifetime chasing speed in forms most people only watch from a safe distance. Eleven X Games gold medals, a Daytona 500 start, jumping from planes, and more broken bones than birthdays have defined his career. Yet when he climbed into the McMurtry Speirling prototype at Dunsfold Aerodrome, the former Top Gear test track in England, he described it as living out a childhood dream. The car, he said, was simply the fastest vehicle on earth.
Larry turned 98 and decided the time had come to let a car handle most of the driving. He had already logged eighty years behind the wheel. His first machine was a 1931 Ford Model A that he once called a piece of junk, good only for getting a high-school sophomore where he needed to go. Since then he has owned more than a hundred cars, among them five Mustangs and a V8 BMW 750 that served him for a decade. The latest addition is a silver Tesla Model Y equipped with Full Self-Driving, purchased in Arizona and delivered in Albuquerque. He lives in Farmington, New Mexico.
