Check the results of the three toughest races in the world. You’ll learn a lot about Porsche. 1. Sebring, 1966. In a race so rugged that only 30 of the 64 starters finished, Porsche’s Carrera 6 was 1st in its class in this 12-hour classic and 4th, 6th, 7th and 8th overall against far bigger cars. 2. Targa Florio, 1966. Porsche’s Carrera 6 took 1st, 3rd and 5th overall in "the world’s most punishing race." Only 13 of 70 starters completed this race through winding Sicilian mountain roads. 3. Le Mans, 1966. Porsche’s Carrera 6 surpassed every car in its class; finished 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th overall, beating many cars with engines three times as large. We enter races like these not for publicity but to prove out the advanced engineering that makes the Porsche you drive one of the best-handling cars ever built for everyday use. Porsche spent years developing a great competition car so you could have fun driving it to work. Three versions for gran turismo connoisseurs; Porsche 912 with 4-cylinder, 102-hp engine, about $4790.

If you were racing here tomorrow you’d wear a Rolex.

If you were racing here tomorrow you’d wear a Rolex. Sliding through a corner at 170 m.p.h. a Formula One Grand Prix car is travelling roughly 17 yards in a fifth of a second. So to say Grand Prix racing drivers have a highly developed sense of timing is something of an understatement. Their lives depend on it. Many of them wear a chronometer they call the best in the world. Its Oyster case is carved out of a solid block of 18 ct. gold or Swedish stainless steel. So much of the work is done by hand, each Rolex Oyster takes more than a year to make. Jackie Stewart thinks it is time well spent. The Rolex he wears is the Datejust. Rolex of Geneva.

What happened to gravity?

What happened to gravity? The casual way a Corvette flattens out the steepest hill you’ve ever seen makes you believe for a minute that Newton’s law has been repealed. Not so; gravity is still operating. It’s just that you’ve never piloted anything with the fantastic push this jewel generates. But a Corvette makes everything so easy. Not just because its precision-balanced V8 can punch out more power-per-pound than any other engine in America. But because it answers a driver’s faintest hint so instantly and accurately. Because it stops flat, true and right NOW! Because its authentic sports car steering puts the car exactly where you want it, to the inch. If you never have sampled a genuine sports car it may be hard for you to imagine what all this can mean. But the remedy for that is as close as your phone. Call your Chevrolet dealer now for an appointment—and let him show you there really is a fourth dimension to driving! Corvette by Chevrolet. Chevrolet Division by General Motors, Detroit 2, Michigan

Airbag para ciclistas Hövding


A ideia de desenvolver airbags para proteger condutores de bicicletas não é nova. Já existem projetos de bolsas de ar instaladas entre o capô e o para-brisa do automóvel, para, em caso de atropelamento, proteger o ciclista ou pedestre de impactos na cabeça.

Entretanto, a empresa sueca Hövding foi além, e vai lançar um dispositivo que, ao contrário das ideias anteriores, não fica no carro, mas no ciclista, que veste uma espécie de colete, cheio de sensores, que detectam qualquer impacto mais forte, e acionam o enchimento da bolsa de proteção para a cabeça.

o produto custa na Europa pelo equivalente a 319 euros. Mas é claro que a empresa não tem a intenção de substituir os capacetes convencionais, assim como os airbags dos carros não substituem os cintos de segurança. Trata-se apenas de um item suplementar, que ajuda a minimizar as consequências de um eventual acidente.
