Corvette Motrosports just put up a great video from the Adria 2008 event in Adria, Italy where they took home a win in the FIA GT1 class. Some tough battles and a nice spin out from an Aston Martin are all included in this five minute highlight reel.
The car that really caught our eye at Barrett Jackson was Lot 1305. This orange Saleen S7 looks amazing and is packing a great twin turbo system hiding under that gorgeous paint. This car was made in 2005 and is painted Beryllium Orange with a 7.0L V8. The Saleen S7 is one of less than a hundred and according to the Barrett Jackson website is the only 1,000hp S7 in production to date. A gorgeous color and an amazing 1,000hp motor makes this car something you really want to consider bidding on if your wallet needs to be emptied. Did we mention it goes 0-60mph in 2.6 seconds!?
Check out Advan Tech Studios video from 2008. Most of the video includes car clips with the likes from Ferrari, Ford, Aston Martin, and Porsche. You will find some amazing shots and clips including a Lotus shooting up pebbles from the brim of a racetrack and a huge Mustang burnout. Check it out above!
Autoblog put up a huge gallery from the Saleen plant in Irvine, California that is now no longer open. Since Steven Saleen has left the company last year and with the economic downturn Saleen has moved everything back under one roof in Detroit building modified Ford Mustang’s and Saleen S7’s. Check out Autoblog’s diary of the Saleen plant in pictures.
