Attention: TDR Forum Junkies can you blieve these numbers? the reg's for Formula 1 engines change for 2006 requiring V8 in place of the current v10's. The Toyota engine is running now in a development program.
The engine is 2. 4 litres, weighing 96 kilo's (211 #'s) normally asperated, turning 19k rpm and putting out approx. 760 bhp ! The engineers could have gone down to 85kgs but the reg's required the 96 kg minimum weight.
The BIG engineering challenge is to balance this whirling dervish !
