The World's Fastest Standing Mile Camaro hits a Top Speed of 253.1 mph – 407.2km/h

Everyone and their mothers know everything is bigger in Texas, but some things were faster too at this weekend's edition of The Texas Mile.

A heavily modified fourth-gen Chevrolet Camaro owned by Kelly Bise and built by Late Model Racecraft with driver Josh Ledford behind the wheel, set a new world record for the fastest standing mile Camaro at the Texas event.

Ledford managed to take the Camaro up to a top speed of 253.1 mph or 407.2 km/h. You can watch his amazing run in the video that follows after the jump.

What a Tease: Switzer R900 GTR GT-R vs Tuned 2012 Camaro SS

Since you all seemed to like our previous video of the 834whp Switzer E900 GTR, here's a fresh clip from the StreetCarDrags Event at palm Beach International Raceway where a tuned 2012 Chevy Camaro challenged one of Switzer's GT-R creations on the quarter mile strip.

Pony Express: New Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 vs. Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca

Comparing the 2012 Chevy Camaro ZL1 with the latest Nissan GT-R is all fine and dandy and makes for a catchy headline but in the real world, few will disagree that there's only one rival and that's none other than the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca.

Motor Trend magazine took Detroit's new breed of wild pony cars and put them to the test around the Inde Motorsports Ranch in Willcox, Arizona to find out who's the real boss.

So which one is the better retro-nostalgic sports car; the Camaro ZL1 with its 580-horsepower 6.2-liter supercharged V8 or the Mustang Boss 302 with the Laguna Seca package and its naturally aspirated 444HP 5.0-liter V8?

Head past the break to find out which one wins this comparo in the video that follows.

After the release of a second image of the new Chevrolet Cruze Station Wagon, we now have the first official video that provides a more in depth look at the compact estate model, which is scheduled to receive its world premiere at next week's Geneva Motor Show.

As we've noted in our previous articles, certain styling tweaks featured on the Station Wagon model such as the new front bumper and grille, alloy wheel designs, headlamp graphics and interior trims, will pass on to the rest of the Cruze range that includes the four-door sedan and in certain markets, the five-door hatchback, for 2012.

You can take a peek at the official footage in the video that follows after the jump.

Granted, no one is expecting miracles in less than six hours when you're working on a beater 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle you just picked up from Craigslist, but Doug Glad and the Car Craft crew proved that that it is possible to turn it into what they describe as a "respectable street machine" in this new episode of Hot Road Unlimited.
