I am really looking forward to seeing more of this car, it is outrageous in a most spectacular way.
@speedhunters_dino Yes, but the valve arrangement with exhausts on both sides was what I was referring to. I did not know anyone else had ever attempted it.
The engine is very similar in concept to the 1966 BMW Formula 2 engine designed by Ludwig Apfelbeck.
Going to have to go through this one multiple times to digest it all. The 80's had many good looking cars, gorgeous racing cars, and fantastic, iconic liveries. What happened to great liveries? Contemporary liveries are lacking something.
The Rangey in the Fat of the Land article comes with Diesel Power. Prodigy references anyone?
I love Jacky Ickx, so happy to see this. I am really enjoying the historic content, just wish there was more of it! Keep up the great work Jonathan!
Jacky Ickx interview?! Must. Remain. Calm. *Goes to adjoining room to look at framed Ickx photo*
"Why yes officer, I do have my tax disc displayed. It is attached to my Hewland FTR six speed sequential gearbox. What's that? You don't know what that is? All of the F1 drivers have used them at some point in their career. It is very interesting. You see, most cars don't have a sequen........"
Is it just me, or do the wing mirrors look MAHOOSIVE?
@Jonathan Moore That can be arranged. :)
Sorry Dino, goodbye Alfa cam cover wallpaper, hello Sauber C9. Obviously loving the detail shots here.
Lucky enough to have seen a 300 SLR in person, unfortunately it was static. Can't wait to see the Uhlenhaut coupé one day.
@PaddyMcGrathSH Probably due to silly things like pedestrian safety legislation and emissions regs in addition to ROI.
That Sauber.....my God.
Outrageous photos Paddy, outrageous.
Shame that this event conflicted with Le Mans test day, it would have been a good opportunity for Matt Griffin, Status GP, or Murphy Prototypes to demonstrate and earn some fans ahead of the big race. Irish motorsport is on the way up!
