The Nurburgring alternative
Take a virtual lap of the Bilster Berg Drive Resort, a challenging 2.6-mile course that’s under construction near Bad Driburg, Germany, and designed to take some of the pressure off the old Nurburgring Nordschleife track. Check out: Coming Soon.

Viper circles the ‘Ring
While we’re near the Nurburgring, let’s hop a ride in a Dodge Viper ACR-X as it does an extremely hot lap of the 12-mile course, accompanied by a lovely V10 soundtrack. Check out: Dodge Ball.

Super site
Take a look at the new website for Koenigsegg, the builder of “Swedish Hypercars.” You don’t need to be able to afford one of these six-figure road rockets to enjoy the site’s offerings. Check out: Swede Ride.

Still old school
Here’s the official and very-cool web site for the traditional British sports-car maker Morgan, which has been in the news lately with the rebirths of the Plus 8 and the classic Three Wheeler, as well as the evocative Aero Coupe. Check out: Future Past.

Old-cart lust
Our friends at Sports Car Digest have launched a new website called SCD Motors that’s dedicated to the buying and selling of collector cars, with comments, discussions and plenty of primo vehicles for sale. Check out: Start Your Collection.

Beauty and the beast
This “007 Spy Camera” video focuses on an awesome Chinese model in a photo shoot with a Lexus LFA. Bonus: Learn Chinese! Check out: Made in China.

Quite a Rascal
Watch Colin Furze’s latest insane creation, a motorcycle-powered 70-mph mobility scooter, running at full throttle in the snow, no less. Fabulously hilarious. Check out: Go Granny Go.
