Doesn't it look like a scream, though?

Default hell yeah, reminded me of my FSAE days...

but we had to run a 20mm restrictor on the competition cars and the engine was limited to 600cc. we took the restrictor off one of the old cars, but it was only a 400cc Honda F2 engine. Still fast as hell. what a riot.

Default I'm head assembly engineer on a dual-busa powered track car

600kg, 350hp.

Currently in design stage.

Default do you need 2 busa engines?

I've seen a dyno chart for a turbo busa that was putting out 400 hp.

Default if 350hp proves insufficient, the turbo route has been considered.

Now, what do you think of 800hp in a 600kg car...

Default I think it will require very large, very sticky tires, and a lot of downforce

that's approaching F1 hp/weight ratios. are you planning on using the transmission gear from the busas? I think you'll have a hard time syncing those up if you are, not to mention pushing the mass threshold of those parts.
