1: The BMW M60 is not tunes, only changed exhaust and ECU. It is a lot cheaper than any other engine as we are buying them use and rebuild them

2: Yes it was a guest appearange but were are hoping for more cars to be on the grid in 2010.

Kun omkring 230 km/t vi kører omkring 235 inden bus stop. Man kan godt mærke at de andre i klassen havde langt flere heste end vi har, men fedt var det :D

How much was the sequential box? Was it Hewland?

[AlexFrederichsen]

I have unfortunately not have had the possibility to try out the GM engined Aquila, hence no footage.

The Porsche "Cup" was'nt running a standard engine either.

Ok, that explains with the Porsches Cup go away in the straits. Do you have any footage of the Aquila with the 7L GM engine? Thanks!

[AlexFrederichsen]

Yup, we did the race with the 320 bhp BMW machine on "Porsche Cup" size tyres. The newer cars with the bigger engines have GT size tyres.

[JoaoBasso10]

Hi there. This footage was done with the 320 hp engine?

Ok sounds logical, still think a well developed S65B40, would be a very nice match with the chassis. Roughly same size, weight and torque, but bit more power to drag those wings through the air. Perhaps a nice (though indeed expensive) options for those wanting to take it a step further. Good luck for 2010.
