It is adorable you all think BOP is for racing parity. BOP is to allow race organizers pick and choose who wins.. 2016 24hrs Le Mans, Ford’s big year back with the GT,,, They get a ridiculous advantage , or lack of punishment, (how ever you choose to see it), and win. DO you think that result was because they were…

not that much faster than a Camaro? Weak sauce, should have had a V8
AP5, a 2.8L twin turbo has been in development for nearly a decade now. Internal politics kept it from coming out in production, mostly because it was a US developed engine and HGT (the Honda Japan mothership) is crazy xenophobic. WHen HRAO was working on it, it was the 1st engine fully validated in simulation, and…
There is still built, not bought. In 1999, 4600rpm clutch dumps in my 1G AWD DWM on the street with a 20G, obnoxious exhaust, and monster ACT clutch was ungodly fast. Not so much anymore, there are 4 door SUVs, that will out drag it... But built is still, and always will be, better than bought.
You shut your whore mouth, Panorama would be incredible in open wheeled cars.....
Based not on ultimate HP, but emissions. Clean burning volumes with little to no soot if the combustion chamber is done right..
That displacement limit is based on bore diameter and velocities of flame fronts.. It is 100% combustion efficiency based..
THese acceleration times are not battery limited, or motor limited, but 100% the tire and traction.
Came here to share this exact thing. David, you rock. This isn’t new tech, and quite frankly, 4wd vs AWD is a total bullshit argument in semantics.
I wonder if it gets the Shelby’s flat crank, or ford’s standard firing order
but on single cylinder basis. its broken down to displacement volume of one cylinder,,, i thought... not the whole engine... I could be wrong... it’s been a while.
I remember that, it wasn’t even close...
I’m not sure I agree with tq/L, if we want to get tech, BSFC AND BMEP is a great metric. As for the V6 in the camaro, That I almost agree with...
My post is mostly trolling Ford and GM fanboys, I’m kinda bored at the moment. In the global market, the coyote and the LS and dinosaurs.
Coyote sucks!!
Lots of 8000rpm engines exist that make emissions and last 200K miles. Take a look at damn near every Honda 4 cylinder engine ever made. A lowly civic Si from 2006 was almost 100hp per liter in an econo box sedan. If you want to talk about specific outputs, Honda has had a 120hp per liter back in 1999. yep 1999.…
The Reuters article does a great job politely explaining the rampant zenophobia of Honda’s Japanese culture. If technology doesn’t come out of HGT (Honda Japan) it doesn’t count. HRAO (honda in raymond Ohio) has come up with amazing advances, that got tossed away because Bakka gaijin created it. HRAO had Honda’s first…
I see that you are a ford guy, but still.. Instant LS hate? Come on now..
If you can’t laugh it it,, that is your problem. Not his. Stop trying to mandate how other people think.
