Young Garuda didn't deserve a defeat

Rossi + Ducati - The Next moto GP world champ?

Upcoming GP has entered the new 2011 season, and Ducati team has prepared it to win the title at all cost. The serious attempt include the signing of legendary moto GP champion-Valentino-"the doctor"-Rossi. Despite the already well know fast and tough engine - like we know - Rossi find difficulties in blasting the motor engine to its top speed. With the season coming close and a fine preparation by its rival -Yamaha, will eventually Rossi find and adapt the right Ducati engine to take the challenge right back on track?
This is the quick preview of Rossi's basic Ducati engine
The Ducati 1098S boasts some gorgeous bodywork and slick design cues, but its real masterpiece lies beneath those pretty plastic panels. Underneath is a tubular steel trellis frame optimized for stiffness, and an L-twin engine produces 160 horsepower and 90.4 lb-ft of torque, routing exhaust fumes through a lightweight 2-1-2 underseat system that culminates with twin stainless steel mufflers. A six-speed gearbox with straight cut gears is mated with a dry clutch, and MotoGP style instrumentation provides an all-digital light show that includes a nifty ambient temperature gauge.
Stopping power is provided by dual, radially-mounted 4-piston 330mm Brembo monobloc front brakes and 245mm, 2-piston rear brakes, which are situated near a sculpted single-sided aluminum swingarm that leaves the other side of the rear wheel exposed.

1098S Extras: Premium Components for Serious Riders

The "S" adds premium equipment to the standard Ducati 1098.

Utilizing the already capable 1098 as a platform, Ducati's 1098S incorporates premium components designed to satisfy the most dedicated sportbike riders, at a cost of $4,000 over the price of the standard 1098 (which has been bumped up a grand to $15,995 for 2008.) Upgraded 43 mm Öhlins FG511 forks use low friction Titanium Nitride-treated sliders while incorporating a steering damper, and the Öhlins 46PRC rear shock is engineered to offer strong dampening alongside decent ride quality. Marchesini forged and machined wheels shave 4 lbs of mass, and a carbon fiber fender and seat cooling ducts bring the total dry weight to 377 lbs (versus 381 for the standard 1098.)
If you plan on riding your 1098S on a track, you'll probably appreciate its Ducati Data Analysis (DDA) system, which uses a data retrieval USB key to interface with personal computers. The system is capable of downloading recorded data from the bike, and is intended to help riders improve lap times and ride more efficiently.

On the Road: Riding the Ducati 1098S

From the moment you start up the Ducati 1098S, you realize it's not like other bikes: between the chug-a-lug of its torquey twin as it idles and the roar of its rev, this engine screams to the bike's sporting nature
Click the kickstand up, snick the foot lever into gear, and let out the clutch and you'll be treated to instant torque that pulls from seemingly no rpms whatsoever. The 1098S wants to move so insistently that just a touch of throttle is required to get it rolling. Clutch slip is required for the first few miles per hour, and once engaged, first gear goes a surprisingly long way.
The L-twin produces both strong low end grunt and high end power, and torque peaks at 8,000 rpm while horsepower maxes out at 9,750 rpm. Warm up the engine sufficiently and you'll notice that the underseat exhaust system heats up the seat, especially on warm days, making you want to stand up on the footpegs and lift off the seat-- anything to alleviate the bake.
Heat notwithstanding, the 1098S offers an involving ride that demands the rider's complete and undivided attention. Throttle response is sharp, handling is extremely crisp, and even the brakes respond with super sensitivity; it seems that merely thinking about stopping actuates the lever and scrubs off speed, the brakes are so strong. It takes time to get used to the ease with which the 1098S decelerates, and once you get used to these outstanding binders, it's hard to go back to other bikes.
All of these components work together to provide a ride that is more unrelentingly focused than sportbikes at a lower price point.

The Price of Performance

Incredibly powerful Brembo brakes require a skilful touch.

What the Ducati 1098S achieves in performance, it detracts in everyday livability. This is, after all, a hyperfocused ride intended to be track ready, but with the added benefit of wearing license plates. The seat padding is thin, the riding position aggressive, and the 1098S's abilities are demanding. The bike responds so well to input, in fact, that it seems to beg for a higher level of smoothness than many casual riders are capable of-- and whether or not that's your cup of tea is an entirely individual question.

Ride it with confidence, and this Duc starts asking for more: greater speed, steeper lean angles, harder braking. Clutch effort is high and the shifter works well, and the bike's 377 lb dry weight really starts to shine when it's tossed around the twisties, enabling it to feel agile and eager to lean, like a much smaller bike. Though still taut and tightly sprung, the reduced unsprung weight of the lighter Marchesini wheels not only makes the S variant more willing to turn, it actually improves ride quality. However, if you're looking for a cushy ride and are put off by razor sharp handling, the Ducati 1098S probably isn't for you.

ridiculously sexy, fast and furious - ferari enzo

 As a tribute to Ferrari’s founder, and in celebration of the company’s ongoing success in Formula 1, the manufacturer’s latest super car carries the name Enzo. The Enzo represents a modern expression of Ferrari’s obsession for technology, performance and eye-catching style.


The Enzo’s chassis heralds a new era for Ferrari cars. Pininfarina’s design of this Ferrari represents an unprecedented convergence of styling and function. The marque’s Formula 1 pedigree can be seen in the Enzo’s nose section, and the entire body is sculpted to secure optimal airflow for engine and brake cooling. This shaping also generates unparalleled levels of grip-strengthening downforce and minimal drag.

 The efficiency of the Enzo’s under-car effects is such that it does not require the sizeable rear wing needed by a large number of its rivals. Aerodynamic equilibrium at high speeds is maintained by automatic changes in the positioning of the two front flaps and the rear spoiler.


The Enzo’s powerhouse is a new, super-light, 6.0 litre V12 engine, boasting several unique features. The engine has been designed with high power performance goals in mind, with a specific output of 110 horsepower per litre. This is combined with outstanding torque at low rpm and an engine which is smooth and easy to handle. The V12 engine produces 383 lb/ft of torque at just 3,000 rpm, and its responsiveness is guaranteed by variable exhaust and inlet valves, together with computerised management systems for each row of cylinders and a drive-by-wire throttle.

The Enzo’s Formula 1 influence is further demonstrated by the coupling of the gearbox to the engine’s rear – this casting also doubles as the engine oil tank. The 6-speed gearbox is equipped with triple cone synchronisers which ensure faultless shifts on all ratios. These synchronisers are controlled by an electrohydraulic system which is activated by paddles situated behind the steering wheel. Ferrari do not offer a fully automatic gearbox option.

 
The Enzo’s new, three-spoke steering wheel has a diameter of 350 mm, complete with a flat top, a row of LEDs to indicate engine revs and three controls situated either side of the airbag, linked to the principal car functions. The grouping of all essential controls around the grip allows more space for the twin gearshift paddles to nestle behind the wheel. Also behind the wheel is the instrument panel, dominated by the rev counter, either side of which are the 250 mph (400 km/h) speedometer and a screen on which numerous displays can be viewed.

Potential owners will be subject to an invitation to the Ferrari factory, where the cockpit of their car will be designed to meet their specific requirements. The cushion and backrest of the leather-trimmed, adjustable Sparco seats are available in four different sizes, and the accelerator and brake pedals can be moved in any direction – even sideways for those drivers who favour braking with their left foot.

Sexy in red BMW 3 series

With so many choices, and such a hard-won reputation for excellence, it's no wonder that the BMW 3-Series sparks more MSN Autos research than any other luxury car. Those Web shoppers will be faced with the perennial 3-Series dilemma: The BMW can cost more than any rival, especially if you ladle on pricey options or choose the 335i with its turbocharged 300-horsepower inline six engine. The 328i and its 240-horsepower six can keep the budget in check, while the diesel-powered 335d is the fuel-sipping champ. And if you're on the fence, the 3-Series' class-topping performance and residual value — along with four years/50,000 miles of free scheduled maintenance
