F1 Engine test

[boulders and sticks]

I know it has nothing to do with the paranormal but i found this video and was amazed at the extremes an engine can withstand without blowing up!! At around 48 seconds in, the people standing around get a little nervous. The exhausts are glowing so hot i can't believe it would not give up the ghost? I bet they change their oil every 3000 miles

Cheers John.

You can see where all the money goes. These sorts of engines are worth every cent and are stripped down after every race. I used to have a blueprinted SVO and that thing needed ceramic extractors due to the heat.

Wouldn't mind throwing an F1 into the Pacer. Drool!

I bet they REBUILD THEIR MOTORS every 3000 miles

Cheers John.

There, I fixed it for you.

At one point it sounds like an angry dog getting ready to attack. Here is a slightly larger engine. What do you think of this one??

Ok i 'll give you that one I bet the F1 car handles better on the twisty bits.
Here is something from the French team. I did not know cars could sing the national anthem?


Cheers john.

And I thought only Jimi Hendrix could do that. As for the 20 MILLION horsepower rocket engine, all I can say is: NASCAR!
