Engine sounds like a typical small block racing engine,then again, I don't think you'd see a Lemans Prototype doing a solo run either.

Think 3-liter straight six, as in BMW. And sure you would. That's Alain Castellana. http://www.chevallier-competition.com/php/pilote-52.htm More hill-climb fun at: http://www.objectifvideo.com/vids/video/videos_an.php?Para=2005 There's a great onboard from an F3000 going up Mt. Ventoux somewhere online, can't remember where. Utterly insane. In a good way... ;-) SB

Well drivers like that takes balls.... One mistake or equipment failure and you face planted into a rock cliff or over a steep embankment.

Cool :) Thanks for this link. http://www.objectifvideo.com/php/photo.php?id=1608 I've done the Remiremont course downhill with my regular car. Not knowing anything about these races I already tought it was just like a racetrack. :-)
