Mattias Vöcks Revives the Volvo P1800
Here another fun little prototype car that might make it into production. Found on JamesList
Originally built by Volvo in 1957 and designed by the Italians, it featured the original B18 engine churning out 100 hp. The updated version will be using the V8 from Volvo’s XC90 to get it up to 600hp. We’ll have to wait and see what becomes of this!

NISMO 370Z Coming Soon
Just came across pics and reviews of the new Nissan 370Z. Don’t know why I have yet to post anything about it but it looks like quite a bit of fun/trouble! I’d gladly take one of the NISMO Z cars coming stateside this summer. Fully tricked out and rolling from the factory with 350 HP!

No commentsT-Rex Forums Still Down
The TROA boards have been down for some reason since Saturday. Not sure why but hopefully they’ll be back up soon so I can get back to lurking! Until then i have filled my time with huning through the RED forums for any bt of info that i may have missed. And indeed i turned up the LART! They tested a bunch of RED gear up in LA and i missed it. Luckily they posted it all on the REDUSER forums
Now I’m updating CS4, downloading R3D raw files and updating codecs so i can max out my laptop and go for total system meltdown…
