Is that the car Mansell crashed heavily?

 

To avoid going for the obvious, I'll say its Jan Lammers.

Oh, Sgt, you cannot put up a picture of an Volvo 850 BTCC without some soundtrack to accompany it

So here it is!

Turn up and enjoy the Waaaaaiiiiiiillllllllllllllllllllll

 

Yeah.. It's Lammers. And those things were amazing and the reason I went and bought an 850 T5. Belting cars!

Loved going around the paddock in between races and seeing how much gaffer tape was holding them together after barging theirway through the first race of the day. Golden days of BTCC!

 

Naaah. That was the Mondeo.

 

Okay,

Engine one again..........


What is the only F1 race victory for a 16 cylinder engine? Driver, car, year and race for the real anoraks.

Also, what was unique about the engine compared to any other F1 engine before or since?

 

It's basically two v8's, right?

 

Kind of, it's a bit more special than that.

 

It was a W16?

 

Not a W16

 

All I got is BRM... as for the rest... I got nada.

 

BRM is correct

 

We need days back like those, when there was less restrictions in the engines...

 

Alfa used to race 16's iic, so I'll go for them, 82?

 

No to both.

Sgt has got the engine, BRM.

 

I'll take a stab at '55, Silverstone

 

Mike Hawthorn? I'm guessing it;s around that era with BRM.

 

No, but wasn't that race Moss won despite trying to wave Fangio through at the line?

Like Barrichello/Schuey but 40 years early!
