Ford engineers replied to a scorching Corvette ZR1X lap by honing the Mustang GTD. The end result was a new Competition model that lapped the Nordschleife in 6 minutes and 40.835 seconds in 2026. That lap time puts them eight seconds ahead of the Corvette ZR1X, a record that is even more astonishing given that it was set by a road-legal American car.
One builder showcases custom-built photobioreactor from start to finish, having printed the majority of its components on a conventional 3D printer sitting on a work surface. The final machine simply sits there silently day after day, converting water and light into useable biomass without the need for anyone to pay attention to it.
Meta’s price increase for their Quest headsets was announced just yesterday, and begin on April 19th, providing users only a little window of time to buy now and avoid a larger bill for the same hardware. The Quest 3S with 128GB of storage is currently priced at $299.99, but will increase to $349.99 on Sunday, representing a $50 difference.
Gamers seeking victory in any fast-paced game will want every frame they can get. Sony designed the INZONE M10S II with this specific purpose in mind, and they accomplished it by including two different modes. Switching between settings is simple on this 27-inch OLED panel. If you keep the resolution at 1440p, the display will run at a scorching 540 hertz. Drop the resolution to 1080p and you’ll be rewarded with an even faster refresh rate of 720 hertz.
People who are visually impaired rely on reliable assistance to gain an understanding of their environment without fear of colliding with something. Guide dogs have been doing this for a long time using tiny signs like yanking on the leash or altering their body weight, but engineers have now added spoken information to the mix, creating a system that responds ordinary queries and communicates what’s ahead.
BigRig Creates came across an animation online that caught his attention: a purple Nintendo GameCube with a small Jacuzzi on top of it, complete with bubbling fluids and illuminating accents. He was immediately taken back by the concept and wanted to make it a reality.
This week, footage of Joby Aviation’s S4-T eVTOL surfaced, demonstrating the aircraft’s seamless transition for a single uninterrupted flight. It lifted directly off the ground on its rotors, then switched a switch (figuratively speaking) and began relying on its wings for lift, gliding around without incident.
Red Bull pilot Dario Costa lets go of the controls on his trusty Zivko Edge 540 and watches the cargo train thunder into the distance at an incredible 120 km/h (75 mph). On February 15th, 2026, near the Turkish town of Afyonkarahisar, Costa does the unthinkable by landing on the last container, riding out a tumultuous stretch of turbulent air, and powering back out in a single smooth move. No one had ever accomplished the feat of landing and taking off from a moving train in one go.
Tom Stanton has spent years fiddling with many strange flying machines. His current idea cleverly updates a traditional toy. Rubber band planes have been around forever, storing energy in twisted bands that then spin a propeller. The problem is that they must be wound up for several minutes merely to produce a short burst of flight. Stanton sought to create a flying machine that was faster, more practical, and could be built with easily accessible components.
