Worthersee 2015: Day 4 and 5 Galleries Now Live

[photos: Si Gray]

Coming out of the first unofficial weekend of Worthersee Treffen, the crowd has actually dissipated a bit, a change welcomed by our own Si Gray and the dedicated few who enjoy the relative calm before thousands upon thousands descend on the town.  With less congestion clogging the streets, Si took the opportunity to head outside of town to nearby Schiefling for a change of scenery before heading back to a decidedly less packed Reifnitz in the late afternoon.  Even though the traffic has dissipated a bit, Si still describes the traveling situation after dark as ‘a nightmare.’

Looking through the images, you’re sure to spot some new faces and some from previous days.  While we’re still quite a few days away from the main event, we feel pretty safe in calling the trends for this year- Liveries, Ferrari wheels, and reverse-mounted three-piece rollers.

As usual, the majority of builds seen at Worthersee achieve a level of detail that is seldom seen on this side of the Atlantic.  The European enthusiasts have an uncanny knack for leaving no panel untouched while still retaining a stock feel.  Even those which have been widened or seen an extensive amount of shaving and tucking still have an OEM-quailty aesthetic.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
