Make Your Own Chiron with LEGO Technic

LEGO Technic is making a Bugatti Chiron kit and it will be better than the real thing, I guarantee you.

The kit isn’t out yet, but Bugatti took to the internet today to tease it and also provide us with some beauty shots of the full-size Chiron.

The Chiron is a 1,500 hp having, potentially 300 mph going, $2.5 million costing hypercar and as such sounds pretty exciting. And I’m sure it is, but in order to afford it you likely have to be the root of depthless human suffering (either in yourself or others. Probably both).

This Technic set, on the other hand, barely requires any human suffering at all. No information on price is available yet, but the Technic 911 GT3 RS set costs $300, which is a lot for a toy. $2.5 million is even more for a toy.

And when you pay $2.5 million dollars for a toy, you tend to only use it for posing in and bragging about. This Technic set, on the other hand, is used for wholesome activities like bonding with young ones and learning organizational skills.

Again, no information has been released about the set, but for comparison purposes, the 911 set comes with more than 2,700 pieces, a 600-page instruction manual, and measure 22-inches in length.

Although the ad doesn’t reveal exactly when the Chiron set will arrive, it does at least promise that it will arrive this year.

See?

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.

Macau Gets Messy with 16-Car Pileup

The Macau Grand Prix is always good for an accident or two or 16— you may remember Audi’s race ending crash last year —and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. It didn’t take long for things to get messy on the tight road circuit. On the opening lap of the qualifying race a 16-car pileup caused the race to be suspended. Things kicked off when Daniel Juncadella hit a wall on the exit of Police bend, one of the tightest parts of the already tight circuit. The following car of Raffaele Marciello was able to avoid the carnage, but Laurens Vanthoor, who was in the upside-down Audi that ended the race last year, could not avoid Juncadella and together they blocked up the road pretty much completely. “I couldn’t see him [Juncadella] at first. Then I saw the car standing still,” Vanthoor told Motorsport. “I tried to brake but it was just understeering and I couldn’t do anything. There’s room for one car there and you’re blind.” Fourteen more cars would eventually crash into the corner c

The First of its Kind: Integrated Engineering Releases Highly-Anticipated IE450T MK6 Golf R Turbo Kit

After two long years of development, the team at Integrated Engineering has finally announced the release of their IE450T kit for the MK6 Golf R. With their turbo kit bolted on right out of the box, the sport AWD hatch is transformed into a 450bhp monster, with hardly any noticeable increase in spool time. In fact, 435 ft-lbs of torque are achieved at all four wheels, at a mere 3300rpm! By now you are probably asking yourself how this is even possible on a 2.0L engine that made nearly half that power from the factory. By employing true twin-scroll technology into the cast turbo manifold and pairing it with a state-of-the-art BorgWarner EFR turbocharger, IE was able to keep spool time at a minimum and bring the fastest-spooling big turbo setup to the market. “We wanted to offer a kit that would dramatically increase the power output without making the car lose its amazing street-friendly drivability,” mentioned one of the IE engineers. We are told the IE450T leaves the car driving jus
