Any characteristics of the car, like weight, power, engine, overall dimensions?

Last time I saw suspension arms that thin, they visibly deflected on accel runs...
More details would be great. Toyota backed/fabricated this car, or a bunch of Toyota engineers got together on holiday and built it? Some dyno graphs would be nice to see since it looks like the intake/injector configuration would lend itself to high end power more-so that low end. -Steve Yao UNM LoboMotorsports '03-'05 UWashington Formula SAE '06-'08 |

From the looks of the runner length I'm betting it makes a flat torque curve a bit under 40 ft-lb from 6500 to 10,000 with fairly gradual slopes before and after that. That is based on what I remember from my simulation work and the testing that was done before and during my time. The shorter runners tended to not have any real peaks or valleys but produced a fairly flat torque curve and when matched to a good plenum and restrictor could produce decently high torque values.

I saw the two Toyota cars in Japan and I have to see it has some very poorly designed uprights, not too mention the A-arms deflected when I pulled on them (the Toyota guy didn't see me do that).
Engine sounded fuckin awesome but I bet it is unrestricted because there's no way it could pass noise (I could hear the car from the train station which is over 1 mile away). Very cool carbon work and that's about all I could see and the guy didn't speak english. |

Are you talking about the car in the photo DohertyWins? I can see a restrictor on that intake on some of the photos.
