Oh neat it's on fire. Anyone have an extinguisher? No? OK that's cool. Just throw some water on the ground underneath the fire.

LOL that part was awesome. Def helped keep that dirt under it from getting scorched too badly too badly.

Actually… now that it occurs to me, there is no possible way that this can make 10,000HP at only 2500 RPM with "just" 147.1 liters.

Look at the constants:

147.1 liters (8976CI)
2,500 Redline

Let's suppose that it actually makes peak output at 2500RPM.
(10,000 * 5252)/2500 = 21,008TQ

Solve for BMEP and you have (150.8*21008)/8976 = 352.94

Seriously, a BMEP of 353psi from an N/A vehicle? Shens!

Even if this engine was capable of F1 levels of efficiency around 220psi, that would amount to only 6250 HP at 2500 RPM. I think they really have no idea what it makes for power and pulled that nice round number from their collective asses...

Im quite surprised they didnt use gasoline!

What they need to do is install 42 o2 sensors and give it a good tune.
