ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. Yes, that smart car does have a busa engine in it. I've seen several other vids of it floating around youtube, but don't feel like searching for them.

Hell if I know, but it does have a busa engine in it. And I agree, I'd rather have the ferrari.

a 1.3 L 4cylinder engine putting out maybe 150 vs a 5.X (we'll say 5.5, i know of 5.7's and 5.3's, but am not a ferrari enthusiast) liter 12 cylinder engine putting out >500hp and the micro machine winning? pretty sweet.

maybe so. i only watched it once.

either way i posted up that second vid, kind of takes the mystery away.

I still want to shoehorn that Busa derived V8 into a Geo Metro or something gay and pwn EVERYTHING.

The 430 is a 4.3 liter V8 making 490 hp @ 8,500 rpm; which is 114 horsepower per liter- in a car. Pretty damned impressive.

Oh I didn't know it by heart, I googled that shit- I'm actually surprised by the hp/liter.
F1 derived engine/transmission development ftw!

And I'm a Porsche guy at heart. F cars are too played out.
