8 mph faster straight line than the works Ferraris at Silverstone ‘50.

The noise is unbelievable.

I still have a hard time believing their 600hp figure out of 91 cubic inches. At 5.9 ci or 94cc per slug, the volumetric efficiency is too high for that era.  In that era, 300HP/L was the norm... they are bantying about 390HP/L.  That's almost 6.5hp/ci boosted.   If close to true, the reliability must have been somewhat less than a grenade.

The 3L H-16 makes more sense at 400hp NA.  And it's reliability sucked.

BRM Type 15 with the twin supercharged 1.5L V16.

The Lotus 43 is a Lotus not a BRM.

There were four of them at The Revival last Sep.

You beat me to it...  Lotus 43?

Was the article errant in saying V-16?

Hmmmmm

Well well – BRM.  Harrumph – it ain’t a BRM if it doesn’t have an H-16.

Just my thots in passing . .

Hybrid C8 Corvette tech leaked and an interesting video on the jig for Britain’s first F1 car (BrM) that will be re-created.
