$22.5k buys A LOT



So, where did the "v-angle not less than 90" rule come from?
Never heard of any v-angle rule for F1 before.
Personally, given the complete lack of restrictions on fuel, boost and
use of nitrous it's certainly possible. Whether this particular engine
can make 1000HP???
OTOH, you can't drive the thing on the street, so what's the fun of a
driveway queen?
