problem is turbos and superchargers combined with the multimillion technology make the game  really dangerous ..Many died..

So they start to limit the powers which also let them control the game
how they want

You gotta admit 1500 or so bhp out of a Renault 5 sized engine is pretty impressive . Even the wife put down her maggy and looked at her shopping car with renewed interest .

You wonder Cem why they bother with F1 at all!

Go carting will soon seem more exciting, and it is so safe !

The blocks BMW were using in their Turbo F1 cars were basically the same as you'll find in that gutless wonder the 318/518. In fact, they favoured second hand blocks for F1 because they were stronger, having been thermally cycled so many times, all the stresses in the block were gone. They took the stroke right down to make it rev to 11K+, and got 1,300 BHP out of them running "qualifying" boost (5.5 BAR  - 80PSI FFS! ).

It wasn't the sort of engine you'd want on a wet roudabout, though. power went from 400 BHP to 800 BHP in the space of 1,000 RPM.

Just shows how conservatively rated car engines are - or how much power you can get out of them if they've only got to last one flying lap. Then again, all parts other than the block would have been pretty exotic to achieve that.

I have seen one - they had one in at the garage my dad used to work at (display in the showroom), they used to let the blocks weather outside as well.

This is a picture of a racing car they had and the driver ended up in F1


BMW County Championship, before my dad started there
