Porsche 917 Paper Engine
Building complex scale models from a kit is challenging enough for most.  Not so for Paul Bischof.  See that Type 912 engine in the picture above?  Not only is it not from a kit, it's made of paper. Paper that Paul cut, glued and pasted, piece by piece, as part of a 917 model so exacting in detail that he was ultimately offered a dream job in a field that many of us would kill to be involved with.  Read this post to see more of Paul's creation and learn about his incredible story?

Leonard Turner The Last Turn Volume 12
Every other week "The Last Turn" features one amazing photograph after the other from the archives of Leonard Turner.  Each photo is accompanied by a story explaining where Leonard was and what was happening at the time the photo was made.  However, up until now, we've never really heard how the photo was made.  Effects you see in the picture above might be commonplace today in the world of digital photography, but they were much, much harder when shooting with film.

I swear, the internet must be running out of ideas. Yes, these type of videos get clicks and they're fun to watch, but lets face it, who is ever going to seriously track either of these cars?

Nevertheless, Auto Express pits the 542 hp Range Rover Sport SVR against the 520 hp Porsche Cayenne Turbo. Which one is most likely to reach that coveted parking spot at the grocery store first? The numbers tell the tale. Watch the video and see for yourself.
