Whincup clinches third V8 title

Jamie Whincup clinched his third V8 Supercars title in four years with an eighth-place finish in a tense finale in Sydney, which was won by Mark Winterbottom. Whincup's title rival Craig Lowndes finished second after a late charge up the order, but it was not enough to deny his Triple Eight Holden team-mate the crown.

Retro gadget orchestra nails House of the Rising Sun, puts your garage band to shame (video)

Retro tech plays House of the Rising Sun
YouTube user BD594, also known as James Cochrane, is no stranger to pushing retro tech to its musical limits. Back in 2009 he coaxed a scanner, an Atari 800XL and a host of other antiquated gadgets to perform Bohemian Rhapsody. The results, while certainly enjoyable, were a tad tone deaf. Well, in the years since he's tweaking his "musicians" and his orchestra has just issued its second single -- an stunning rendition of House of the Rising Sun, in the style of the Animals. Seriously, this staple of '60s high school rockstar wannabes is absolutely nailed by the assortment of hard drives, oscilloscopes and the scanner. Cochrane isn't alone in his quest to turn obsolete tech into musical magic. Christopher Mitchell managed to hack a Ti graphing calculator and hard disk into a monophonic media player. While his accomplishment is impressive, he loses this round for wasting his skills on the saccharin stylings of Cold Play. Check out both videos after the break.

Official: Lexus and Mini offer the most satisfying buying experience

Filed under: , , , , ,

JD Power and Associates has released the results of the organization's annual study on customer satisfaction with the vehicle buying process, and Mini has once again taken top honors among mass market brands. The study specifically looks at satisfaction among buyers and those who chose not to buy from a particular brand for a comprehensive slice of the automotive consumer masses. Among buyers, JD Power evaluated across four categories; working out the deal, salesperson, delivery process and dealership facility. Rejectors, however, evaluated ranked their experience across salesperson, fairness in price, facility, inventory and experience negotiating.

Overall sales satisfaction actually increased over last year across the board, and JD Power believes this may be due to the fact that manufacturers are focusing improving their dealer experience now more than ever. That increase in satisfaction comes even as the actual buying process takes longer than in 2010. Buyers can now expect to spend an average of 11 more minutes in a dealer when it comes time to sign the loan agreement, thanks in part to more in-depth demonstrations of vehicle features.

Lexus beat out the rest of the luxury brands to take first place in 2011, with Cadillac and Mercedes-Benz trailing close behind. Who took the bottom of both lists? Volvo landed dead last among luxury makes, while Jeep took the bottom spot among mass marked sellers. Hit the jump for the full press release as well as the rest of the automaker standings.

FlightIt's not rare for me to post videos on Fridays, but I generally preface them with some big explanation as to why I've posted it on TechCrunch. This week's explanation is simple: because it's friggin' awesome. It's got Angry Birds! It's got Fruit Ninja! It's got Flight Control (plus super cute Flight Control girl!) It's got stupidly catchy indie music! Seriously, what more could you want? A puppy? Because it has that too.
