the V10 3.0l were pushing out about 1000BHP. When they went down to the V8 2.4l they were quickly at 750BHP and I recall Cosworth were the first engine supplier to break into the 20,000RPM category Q: Anyone have an idea what BHP levels the V8 2.4l would have been pushing out now, if all the restri...

The 10's had more pwer and torque.

8's and 10's are nice but for pure visceral sound give me a 12.

Whats Visceral. Think I caught that when I was in Asia

I think I must be the only one who likes the newer XKR shape. The old one looked more like the XK8, which I can't say I'm a big fan of, looks wise. The newer XKR is my more realistic car ambition, second hand unfortunately my first name isn't 'Sheikh'. Hopefully one day I can get a second hand DB9 ...

And theyve enforced the one move to defend so theres another area, where we will see overtaking.
Im not in the knowledge to give times or speeds but interesting thread any how

ToughGuy

I'm guessing he is asking what lap time differencial can be defended by a good driver. eg if the chasing driver is a second a lap faster then it is indefensible but a good driver could protect their lead over someone possible .2 or .3 sec per lap faster. It's a difficult one to answer because it de...

Definitely a Casey Stoner fan... but I'm surprised Lorenzo was the one taking the fight to him last year. Pedrosa had the edge over Stoner in the lower formula, Lorenzo was just behind them I thought. I rate Pedrosa and I think he will be closer to Stoner this year. Being a Stoner fan I know he has...

I have heard people talk about the current engines having a serious lack of torque compared to previous engines. I remember when the V8 era was first introduced the STR had to run a V10 with a limiter to make it fair, so you'd have to assume that the engine itself is slower and an improvement in th...

yeah great season and good times in F1. The cars were more wild than now and the engines were without stupid technical constraints and a rev limit.

Good these drivers are still around and Im sure its going to be a good year this year.

V10s all the way. I was at Silverstone around 2002 and the V10s were racing 3.0litres. The sound was pure joy and adrenalin fuelled. The V8s still scream but compared to the V10s, well they dont compare. I was at a Superleague Formula race a few years ago and they have V12s with 4.6 litre or somethi...

Stoner for me. Hes just too quick. Amazing direction change skills almost hanging off the bike.

Want rossi to take some wins though. Hes the man and exciting too.

Was Kimi at the level of Alonso? Hakkatack's point about all those grid place penalties for KImi says it all.
