Here is a small quote from "TomsHardware.com"
"Every few years, F1 regulations are adjusted to bring down the horsepower of the car engines. For example, in 1986, F1 cars had turbocharged engines with about 1350 bhp, which was decreased over the years through various mechanisms, such as only allowing normally aspirated engines. In 1995, the engine size was limited to 3.0 liters, which resulted in about 700 bhp. With the help of computers, engines are scratching the 1000 bhp once again this year. Next year, regulations will limit engines to 2.4 liter V8s and result in an estimated output of 730 bhp."
WOW 1000HP from 3.0L (Non-turbo) and 730HP from 2.4L (Non-turbo) I am trying hard to get 300HP out of 5L!
I will also say that their budget is slightly more than my $2500... They spend about $350 Million a year on car and engine design, testing & Production!
WOW is all I can say!
