Retro tech for car nerds

What has 190hp, 8 cylinders and weighs less than half a tonne? A 1962 Porsche Type 804 Formula 1 car.

Just for the sake of comparison, my 1994 Peugeot has about 150hp from a larger engine and weighs about 1300kgs. Or, the average Lotus 7 replica has about 150hp from a mid-1990s engine and weighs just over 600kgs.


Type 804. Awesome. Posted by Hello
