Kind of like the Lancia Stratos and the Fenomenon. Not a bad thing, just interesting. Amazing how it makes the original F1 look fussy. Kind of like the Lancia Stratos and the Fenomenon.

Old Mclaren F1 had a 625-bhp 6-LTR naturally aspirated engine capable of doing 241 mph The buggati Veyron has a 8-LTR with 950-BHP quad turbo engine capable of 250 mph. Mercedes AMG has a 6-LTR quad turbo engine capable of 850 bhp and 850ft of torq shown in the Chrysler ME4/12. That fitted to the Mclaren should easily achive 255-260bhp. Why not????

And, the McLaren will not melt the paint off the other vehicles around it. AuDub: it’s because these engines also don’t need 10 radiators.

I'd say American carmakers definitely have a future if they can lure in these super-creative and talented "kids" while using more of a bottom-up management approach by actually LISTENING to them...

I'm thinking the 7.3 liter that in the Zonda + the twin turbo setup, making 900bhp would do nicely.

All this talk about UAW and economic strategizing by car companies is interesting, but this is *left lane* news, and I really do like news about fast cars.
