6.5L Cosworth V12 making 1000hp @ 10,500rpm w/11,100 redline and this is all before the hybrid powertrain is included. The car only weighs like 2300lbs as well. It's going to be untouched for some time when it hits next year.
Here is a recent video of the engine too if you are bored:
I forgot about that car.That is amazing. Cosworth has always been one of the coolest engineering firms to me. The work they have done over the decades is incredible. I can't wait to see what they do for TVR's new Coyote engines they are using too. Thanks for sharing that!
I forgot about that car.
I can't wait for it to come out.
It's McLaren's chief that is bringing them back right? I think that is why it is finally being taken seriously now and TVR's should finally have some decent quality lol.
I just watched a video on the Agera RS and how the values are now estimated at over $10 million for them. With this Valkyrie, I wonder if the values will surpass that since production numbers are similar?
I'm a huge fan of the Valkyrie, but don't forget that AMG is working on a similar project, which will use a 'streetable' version of a modern F1 drivetrain, meaning 1.6 V6T that revs to the moon and 4 electric motors...

Too heavy, half of svtp is out. Could have done betterI was reading about it last night, the engine only weighs like 450lbs and it's a structural piece.
They could have made it lighter, but the cam gears would have been right behind your head and I guess they aren't exactly quiet. So they got moved to the back at the cost of 15lbs.

Mercedes-AMG Project ONE: Formula 1 technology for the road.
Valkyrie looks better and more aggressive IMO, but Mercedes knows a thing or two about F1 technology....
Remember how Bruce Mclaren made the F1 because no one else could do it properly and they are worth eye watering amounts of money now?
I believe this is the modern version of that car and it's pricing will reflect that.
