We look forward to connecting with all of you and make this site the best it can be. Njection is comprised of five main sections:
SpeedTrap
Available now is Speed Trap, a web application hybrid mash up that combines Microsoft Live Maps along with the ability to pinpoint and review speed traps located anywhere on the planet. The information shared by its members is placed into a database and can be viewed by anyone. SpeedTrap allows the average driver to avoid being pulled over and slapped with a ticket by informing them of local and national speeding surveillance hotspots. Auto insurance companies and state government offices profit from speeding tickets and fines but by exchanging information via SpeedTrap drivers are given an edge on the system, allowing them to drive safely and vigilantly on nearly any road worldwide.

While the words “Cadillac” and “Nurburgring” don’t classically go hand-in-hand General Motors is apparently out in Germany proving that its CTS-V can hold its own with just about anything orbiting the Green Hell., and they’ve got the photo to prove it. GM announced early this afternoon that driver John Heinricy was able to pilot the LSA V-8 powered V car to a potentially record-breaking time of 7:59:32, which is said to be the fastest “documented” lap by a sedan…ever. We’re even more excited to hear that one of Cadillac minions caught the lap on a video that is set to be released within a few days. + Autoblog: Green Hellraiser: Caddy CTS-V storms Nordschleife in 7:59:32 If you’ve got an idea for Question of the Day, a funny photo for Caption It, or just want to share a news tip, let us know at windingroadtips@gmail.com

We’ve just taken delivery of a spanking new Volvo C30 hatch and thought that the stylish Swede would be the perfect subject for this week’s Ask It segment . It’ll be hard to argue with the small Volvo’s looks as we think the car is one of the prettiest hatchbacks on sale today, but questions about the ultimate functionality of the design might not go amiss. Let us know what you ponder when you hear “C30”, in comments .

Filed under: Sedans/Saloons , Sports/GTs , Cadillac , GM Click image to enlarge The badassery going in inside the supercharged LSA V8 stuffed under the domed hood of the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V appears to translate well on the Nordschleife's graffiti-marked tarmac. GM announced today that John Heinricy exercised his right to life, liberty and the pursuit of a record time by wheeling a production-spec CTS-V around the Nürburgring's north loop in 7:59:32, which is believed to be the "fastest documented lap time" for a production sedan. Even if that turns out not to be the case, it's pretty freakin fast. GM shot video of the whole thing, which should be released in the coming days. Somewhere, Nissan engineers with furrowed brows are shoving the GT-R's 3.8L V6 into a G35 sedan... Gallery: 2009 Cadillac CTS-V [Source: GM] Permalink | Email this | Comments
