SAD NEWS: SCHUMI’S WILL OUT

 

The will drawn up by Michael Schumacher would see his $1 billion-dollar estate divided equally among the three other members of his family. According to reports, the will and testament was signed by former Mercedes and Ferrari driver Schumacher in 2010, when he returned to F1 after a three-year sabbatical. It instructs that his fortune, reported to be a billion US dollars, be divided equally between his wife Corinna, his daughter Gina-Maria (16), and son Mick (14). It was reported that Schumacher’s condition, last listed as stable but critical, had not changed since the last medical bulletin issued about a week ago.

Corvette tuner extraordinaire Callaway has finally revealed its first tuned version of the Corvette Stingray, a new supercharged model that comes close to matching Chevy’s own Z06 in the horsepower stakes. Callaway’s new Corvette carries the SC610 designation, which as you may have guessed stands for supercharged and 610 horsepower. Callaway’s supercharger has several new features. It still relies on an Eaton TVS four-lobe, high helix rotor pack, however, the housing and manifold have been completely redesigned for improved airflow and a new intercooler configuration reduces charge air temperature. The supercharger is also front-driven, and extends through the hood for that racer look.
