they were using rusty used old factory production blocks and cranks, plus the basic engine dates back to the early 1960s. By the time they were making this much power however, the engines would blow up frequently. Still very impressive, and ran on fuel consisting of mostly toluene

I mean for what you’re getting 350000$ doesn’t seem all that unreasonable for someone who would normally purchase a couple exotic cars. A distant Uncle of mine (I posted pictures of his 360 a few years ago) now has 3 Ferraris where as back in 2008ish he only had the 360. I’d much rather have one of these and the other two Ferraris.

Well based on the S7 thread I’m quite confident that not only can I afford to buy this but I can afford to run it at track days too.

I’m not going to daily drive it, just a weekend/track toy. I’ll have my S7 for daily duties.
