Worthersee 2015: Day 8 Gallery Now Live

[photos: Si Gray]

Si Gray’s time in Austria has come to an end, but before packing up and leaving town, he’s sent over one last round of event photos.  After making stops at all of the normal gathering spots, Si reports that traffic within the towns of Faak and Reifnitz has died down a bit, signaling that perhaps word has gotten out about the pre-event festivities.

Even still, Si was able to send over images of some of the more remarkable vehicles that we’ve seen so far this year.  Case in point would be this Mk7 GTI, which appears to be completely covered in Carbon Fiber, along with the seemingly ubiquitous air suspension and reverse-mounted three piece wheels.

Because attending just one Wörthersee branded event is never enough, Mr. Gray is currently on a flight destined for Philadelphia where he will have one day of rest before joining the Orchid Euro/Coolwater cruise to Georgia for SoWo.  We’re looking forward to catching up with a very tired Si in just a few day’s time.

Although Si may not be in town (or Europe, for that matter) anymore, our coverage of the event is not finished.  Jamie Vondruska will be hopping a plane shortly destined for Germany, where he will grab the keys to something undoubtedly cool and drive to Austria for the main event.  As time allows, he will be forwarding his shots from the event which we will get up as soon as possible.

Check out our full Wörthersee 2015 coverage here.  Due to popular demand, we’re also breaking out all galleries by day, which can be found here.

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 ...
