    BMW silhouette hillclimb racer

    Found a story on this car in the latest Racecar Engineering

    Judd V8 from an LMP2 car- sounds like an F1 car.
    Carbon brakes, sophisticated roll cage/tube frame, Audi R15 gearbox, weight-optimized suspension tuned for mechanical grip, 780kg with 5liters of fuel.

    enjoy.

    They take hillclimbs very seriously in Europe.
