Your Fave Car Engines

[clarkey01]

1. Vanquish - S 6 litre V12 (The sound it makes, but I wish it could give more BHP then 520)

2. XJ220 Twin turbo 3.5 Turbo V6 ( One of fave cars, and 515 BHP for a V6 aint bad)

3. Bugatti Veyon (spelling) V16 with four turbo's, just for the sheer 1001 BHP really.

Yep sorry your right, but 1001 BHP in a road car Only does 7 miles per hour more then a Mclaren F1

weight. if they could make the bugatti lighter it would go faster

I prefer the future engines being developed now. You know, the ones that run on Hydrogen and in fact aren't even engines? Where power is generated through chemical reactions rather than any form of internal combustion?

Down with internal combustion. Down with American car makers. Crap, crap, crap. On to the future, people!

yeah, I knew it was in the pre 85 (last rwd) celica, but it was used primarily for the tacoma (or T100 actually) truck back then. it was kinda like the KA in the S13, high torque 4 banger in a light weight rear drive coupe.

there was no t100 in the 80s.

Incorrect.

Weight has little to nothing to do with top speed. Weight affects acceleration, but has hardly any affect on top speed, since wind resistance vs HP limits that. Weight will slightly increase rolling resistance, but that hardly accounts for anything.

Speed record cars at bonneville use ballast to weigh them down. The reason they do this is because they need to stay on the ground (obviously), while having a wing greatly increases aerodynamic drag, which would diminish their top speed. Weight, however, doesn't affect the top speed by any appreciable amount, so it's the obvious choice.

wow, you need more :beer:, weight will still affect you at top speed. drag causes more weight, get rid of that too.
