Default F1 Engine sings (vid included)

A mate at work went to the Goodwood festival the other day and he filmed a neat trick with the Renault F1 cars, so i thought i would upload it and share it with you lot.

Whoever sat and worked out what RPM equals what notes is a genious

but they are too scared of Stu!!!

Quality stuff from the Renault boys. Wonder how they kept them cool all day? big fans? dry ice?

Was that a repost then Lee? Who else has my mates video footage then?

My mate said they were only running it for less than 2 mins every hour and using dry ice and a big fan to cool it back down again.

Oh ok

How did they keep the engine cool Lee? Did they pipe a constant supply of cold water into the block and back out again simulating the flow of a water pump and radiator?

Wouldn't have thought so mate, just use the normal water cooled set up and use fans and dry ice like they do at the really hot GP days.

They did that in the pit lane last year at the end of the season - swiftly followed by a full throttle 'demo' till it blew
