@freewill51 Well, Ford did fund the championship winning Zetec-R V8 of 1994 but that revved to 14,500 and it was designed by the English. Chevy couldn't produce a 10,000 rpm engine, never mind an F1 engine of today - thick cunts

@georgeprowse Nup. Cosworth had the highest revving engine at the time and no way did the 3.0L V10's produce over 1,300hp. 950hp max

@jimwebb87 in a high quality rc nitro race engine the pistion has to move up and down 700 times a sec

I think we should point out that they are *limited* to 18,000 rpm. The FIA did that because some engines (Honda or BMW I think) started getting 23,000rpm from a 2.4L V8! On top of that they are 2.4L V8s because the 3.0L V10s were so fast and producing up to (and over) 1,300bhp
Once you get to these rpms, combustion events have to occur in much shorter durations, which means you can't afford for any fuel to stick to the walls of the inlet ports(which tends to happen with injecting into the sides of the inlet @ pressures like 100bar) there is less tendancy for this to happen, when you atomise the fuel directly over the top of the throttle body. F1 line pressures are up @approx 90-100bar, in order to keep up at these rpms.
