The World`s Fastest HUMMER Comes!250 km/h with 700 hp / 515 kW and 3.1 Metric Tons Curb WeightA top speed of 250 km/h: The world`s fastest HUMMER comes from GeigerCars.de (Website: www.geigercars.de ). The leading European tuner of American automobiles equips the SUV with a 7.0-liter V8 supercharged engine delivering a maximum power output of 700 hp / 515 kW and a peak torque of 904 Nm. Added to that is an exclusive GeigerCars.de luxury equipment package with 28-inch chrome wheels, sport suspension, high-performance brake system, pearl-effect special paint and an exclusive interior complete with multimedia system. To make the HUMMER H2 the fastest of its kind the specialists at GeigerCars.de replace the standard 6.0-liter engine with a V8 from the current Corvette C6, albeit with a bored-out displacement of 7,011 cc. Numerous additional modifications such as precision-machining the two cylinder heads, the installation of a sport camshaft and a reinforced valvetrain are also part of the GeigerCars.de power treatment as is a cogged-belt driven supercharger with high-capacity intercooler. A fully stainless-steel high-performance exhaust system with high-performance manifold and metal catalysts completes the engine conversion. With these modifications the supercharged eight-cylinder engine produces a maximum power output of 700 hp / 515 kW at 5,500 rpm and a peak torque of 904 Nm at 4,260 rpm. Power is transferred to all four wheels via a modified four-speed automatic transmission. Despite a curb weight of 3.1 metric tons the HUMMER H2 7.0 Kompressor from GeigerCars.de achieves performance on the level of a purebred sports car: The sprint from 0 - 100 km/h takes just 6.5 seconds, top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h.

The Ultimate Flying Machine

On the shore of Lake Isabella, about 150 miles north of Los Angeles, a crowd of flight techs, most of them either pierced or tattooed, swarms around a small white airplane. It's called an Icon A5. It's a collaboration between an F-16 pilot and a skateboard designer, and it looks like an odd, rakish sea monster.
Today is the plane's first flight. Aeronautical calculations, computer simulations, and wind tunnel tests have been performed, of course. And yet ... every maiden flight is a dance with death. If all that math was foolproof, after all, no one would need test pilots.
