I came here fully ready to post a link to the video.
How awesome would it be if they did the fans a favor and brought it around with them to some F1 events. Just seeing that thing in action in person would be worth the price of admission for me.
RL, I was thinking along similar lines: Show up at a track day with this on a flatbed trailer. All the laughs and taunts would disappear once it started up and headed for the track.
I was going to say that the 3 into 1 header looks as if it has an outer and inner path for exhaust gasses instead of combining the runners into 1 as they meet the final pipe
On the same line I tought I remember a Ford Transit with a Cosworth DFV, but it looks like there were three versions http://www.rebelvanners.co.uk/SUPERVANS.htm
The world is ready for another Espace F1. The V8s are going to be useless at the end of the year anyway, so why not shoehorn one into some appropriately shite Renault product, there's so much choice. A Modus F1, a Koleos F1 or why not, another Espace!

DeleteYes! I had thought for half a second you were just fooling around and then I saw that half-front sketch.
ReplyDeletekeep them coming.
Damn!!!!
ReplyDeleteImagine pulling up to a stop light in one of these. Sitting next to you is a Chevy Corvette ZR1.
You taunt him into a drag race. The light turns green and you completely, utterly, absolutely SMOKE HIS ASS!!
And leave him hopelessly dumbfounded!!
Oh my that would be fun!!!
I think he might suspect that something was up when the minivan next to him when it's idling at nine thousand RPM.

ReplyDeleteEven cooler: It appears to be an Etch-a-sketch drawing!
ReplyDeleteAh, past F1 experience serving as the inspiration for legendary F1 van-spinoffs serving as inspiration for future F1 success. Tale as old as time.
