this is a fun watch and goes through all the tech that they shove into these cars. The dynamic motor mounts and torque vectoring are pretty cool. ---

I like how BMW used variable intake runner length to change low end torque in their engines. Even if it fails, it is cool to try innovative new ideas. ---

Even if it fails, it is cool to try innovative new ideas. ford did this in the taurus SHO which was adopted to some duratec engines (2.5L and 3.0L V6), honda did this as well for a while. ---

That’s not exactly new. That’s been around since the 80s. Ford used it on the SHO motor and Acura on its NSX engine. ---

off topic but, while watching that for some reason (i think due to the guys voice and the music) I was waiting for one of the cars to transform in to an autobot or something… lol ---
