Holy moly thats fast.

Wow!

And to think I managed to rebuild my ZZR head, and it worked!!

Is the smoke heat from the cylinder below, or oil vaporising due to friction in the head?

Awesome, I always wondered what it must look like at those revs

Is that a public road they've just sprayed a sumpfull of oil all over ?

I read i think in a book about keith duckworth where they were doing high rev testing on a DFV block without heads.

It was so fast (20k rpm+) you could apparently sign your name across a bank of cylinders with a sharpie marker. Would love to see a vid of that.

Cracking vids
