At least when I saw this car, I absolutely believe that the sound of this car is absolutely not worse than the V 12 engine from Maranello, Italy. It is said that McQueen spent more than ten years and nearly 10 million dollars to build this monster that at least looks like Ferrari Enzo.
McQueen said that during his manufacturing of this car, Google and Youtube (overseas video websites) were his best helpers. In the manufacturing process of this 14 year, many problems are self-taught skills from these two websites. Like McQueen, the name of this car is called "Insanity".
Today, when we open the overseas search engine again and enter McQueen's name (Ryan? McQueen), he has been listed as the owner and manufacturer of jet car insurance. All this is due to two Rolls-Royce Viper engines, which are more than 18,000 horsepower. These engines were originally designed in the 1950' s and were used in many experimental jets of the Royal Air Force and the US Air Force.
McQueen said that in the case of full tilt, the thrust generated by two Viper engines is about 14,000 pounds.
In fact, the car we are seeing now is not actually based on Ferrari Enzo, and the manufacturing process of the body really opened my eyes. McQueen found a model remote control car of Enzo and cut it into 26 independent assemblies for careful measurement. Then he put these body parts from the remote control car on the projector and magnified them ten times. Then, cut the plate 1: 1, so there is a remote control car between this car and Ferrari.
McQueen's calculation shows that if all the plans can be successfully completed, then the car should be able to reach more than 400? The top speed of mph.
As you can imagine, it was not smooth to build this car with jet engines, but McQueen persisted for 14 years. In the first ignition test, one of the two starter motors failed, resulting in "hot start", which means that the amount of fuel in the combustion chamber was too large before ignition, which means that not only the starter motor but also the turbine should be repaired.
Anyway, McQueen did it. He said that he planned to drive the car at a "slow speed" in May this year. If these tests were carried out smoothly and perfectly, they would take the car back to McQueen's studio for a comprehensive diagnosis, and then return to run at a higher speed.
As for the final price of McQueen's car, he said that in fact, it doesn't cost much to make such a beast, at least at present, their cost is less than100000 dollars. Of course, this standard is based on the fact that this is a 18000 horsepower "super run".
I will pay close attention to the test run process of McQueen and Insanity. As a car fan, what McQueen has done is something that we have always wanted to do but are discouraged.
