A LOOK FORWARD: What Countries Will Fight Over When Green Energy Dominates March 16, 2021 EnergyNow Media By Marc Champion Mar 15, 2021 (Bloomberg) The Rand Corporation’s been designing war games with the Pentagon since the 1950s, modelling such hard-nosed security scenarios as a two-front U.S. war with China and Russia. Now the think tank is turning its realpolitik tool kit to a question more often associated with environmental dreamers: How will clean energy change the world?Rand is among the small but growing number of research organizations, universities...

2021 McLaren 720S GT3X Unleashed With 740 Horsepower From Hand-Built Engine 15 Mar 2021, 16:35 UTC · by Under GT3 regulations, the race-ready 720S isn’t on par with the road-going 720S in terms of horsepower. What the British automaker calls GT3X is a track-only machine that doesn’t follow the rulebook to a T, which is why the twin-turbo engine develops 740 horsepower in push-to-pass mode. 12 photos Factory test driver Rob Bell mentions “an extra 200 horsepower” over the GT3, which is obviously a lot for a car that isn’t hindered by the weight of airbags, ESP, and other nann...

PHOTO: NASA After years of hearing more vendor sales pitches than is healthy for me, I’m convinced most pitches fall into two "why" categories. The first "why" is a pitch so abstract and high-level that it sounds like the technology equivalent of achieving world peace, with nary a mention of the "how" to actually pursue this nirvana. The second "why" pitch focuses on the technology itself — replete with elaborate technology stack diagrams — with scarcely a mention of the actual business benefits that might be tied to the technology. Also missing is any substantial discussion...

autoevolution 5 Feb 2021, 7:28 UTC · by The tires weren't warm, the temperature wasn't high enough, the road surface wasn't grippy, the sun was in the driver's eye, AND he hadn't had his coffee that day - no excuses, no matter how childish or founded, can get the McLaren 600LT out of this one. 8 photos The thing is, the Macca shouldn't really feel the need to defend itself and its performance. This race was skewed from the first moment it was planned because nothing, apart from the mostly insignificant weight, was lined up in the 600LT's favor. When racing AWD cars, McLarens tend to la...
