That’d annoy the neighbours!
Bernie maybe on to something when he says he wants to keep the noise of F1.
Anybody remember what specs the engines were in 2004?

Great to see them running without the airbox on and see the fuel mist from the injectors being sucked in
very cool
What’s the spray being injected into the intakes

That had crossed my mind but to inject it there, I have to take it on the chin and accept it was a stupid question I would have thought it would have been injected deeper within the trumpet/intake manifold, looks to me like you would get evaporation at that point.
Ian, the “airbox” is not fitted, so not a stupid question
Here’s another one…

At around 1’18 you can see the fuel just “splashing away from the trumpets” I know I’m wrong 'cause F1 engines are immense, but they seem just to spray the fuel into the “air” and let the engine suck in what it can!
That is on Pesky’s second vid!
