Ferrari 599XX Evoluzione
Ferrari has had a play with the track-only 599xx, added more power and improved aerodynamics and created the ultimate 599 – the Ferrari 599XX Evoluzione. There are road Ferraris and there are track Ferraris. And the Ferrari 599XX carries on the tradition of hard-core track-only cars for wealthy clients (like the FXX) where ultimate performance is achieved by ignoring homologation rules for any race.

Mitsubishi will enter the 2014 Pikes Peak International Hillclimb – the 92nd running of the prestigious event – with its specially built electric racecar, it announced today. The team finished second and third in the electric class at the 2013 event, and will use the same drivers – former motorcycle class winner, Greg Tracy, and Dakar-rally winner Hiroshi Masuoka – for the 12.42-mile climb to the 14,110ft summit. The bewinged Mitsubishi i-MiEV Evolution III is 4.7m long and 1.9m wide, with an electric motor at each corner to send a total of 600bhp through all four wheels.
