Ford Fiesta ST GRC


Ford announced the initial details and images of the 2014 Ford Fiesta ST Global RallyCross Championship (GRC) - a racecar that will be used in the 2013 season of the Global RallyCross Championship and Global X Games events. The car will be driven by Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan.

Built by Ford Racing and OlsbergsMSE, the new Fiesta ST GRC is based on the new Ford Fiesta ST production car set to go on sale this summer. No official details or specifications have been confirmed yet, but, by taking a closer look to these first images you will notice the car gets a pretty aggressive aerodynamic kit, with large front and rear bumper and a pretty impressive rear wing. The interior has been specially designed for the racing and includes a role cage and of course, racing seats.

Full details will be unveiled in a couple of days during the car’s official debut at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show. We?ll bring you all of the details once they are release.

Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS


Kawasaki is one of the oldest Japanese motorcycle manufacturers and most of the company?s models were received with great interest by the riders. And there is no wonder why as they had a bullet proof built quality and offered top notch performances as well.

From the original Z-1 to the ZZR1200, Kawasaki?s do-it-all motorcycles combined the power, handling, comfort and aesthetic appeal that repeatedly dominated their categories. The same facts are also true for the 2012 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS, which is one of the best models in its segment.

The 2012 version delivers a dominating mix of power, handling, looks, technology and rideability. The bike is powered by a four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, four valves per cylinder, inline-four, 1,043cc engine which is paired with a six speed gearbox.

For those who want a faultless stopping power, Kawasaki also offers an ABS version of the Ninja 1000 for 2012.
