Yea thats pretty nice...wish i had that kind of money....1500 hrs spent designing that must have cost a fortune.
It would be fun to ride up on some mini's tailgate in that thing :4

I'm just disappointed with a turbocharged 30l they could only muster 1200hp. 40hp/l :( Guess it's still killer for an engine design that old with just a couple improvements. I'd love to take that somewhere for an oil change.

You have to understand that HP comes from making torque at high rpms. An engine that massive would wear out or simply explode at high rpms. It was designed for a tank. That means it has high efficiency at low rpms and a torque curve that is predictable.

um no, the s2k has 120hp/l so is obviously faster and better

there is only 2 or so that have been made (or so I hear) and the other guy lives 20 mins away from me. Last 4th of july parade I got to see it in person. The thing is a ------- beast.
