The idea of being able to escape from custody is one that many may fantasize about when they watch television or a movie. We see our heroes wrongfully accused of a variety of crimes and imprisoned only to be able to escape and prove their innocence. Real life isn’t quite as fanciful as the shows and movies put on for us to entertain us, but sometimes real life can be exciting all the same. Such was the case in Pennsylvania recently when one man thought to try and take back his freedom from custody.

As proud as they can be
After making the lap at Nurburgring there was one more place the new “fastest car around the ‘Ring” needed to be and that’s at the Geneva Motor Show. The new Lamborghini Huracan Performante is now the top car and it may be a few years before another car can take its place. Not only is it the fastest car to make this lap, it’s the one that offers a naturally aspirated V10 engine and it actually beat out a car that offered a hybrid powertrain under the skin of the car. This new impressive model is the model that Lamborghini is proud to show off, as you can see in this short video from AutoGuide.

How Should you Modify Your Car?
When you buy a car that you’re going to drive and enjoy for the performance it provides you probably want to make a few modifications right away. As much as many might think the first thing to do is to add more power to a vehicle that’s not always the case. You might want more horsepower to gather more speed when driving straight, but if your car is destined for the track there aren’t any straight tracks out there where you’ll drive for any length of time. This means power isn’t the first thing you should add to your car at all, but there are some important upgrades you can make to give you the power and performance you want. Engineering Explained actually has an excellent video on the topic.
