Title: flat eight VW Post by: kingsburgphil on August 29, 2009, 09:19:26 am Anyone out there got pics of the Fittipaldi brothers twin engine VW race car? I remember seeing cut away drawings of the engine(s) layout back in the early
70's. They were quite successful with a 3 liter VW against various "real" race cars of the era. I'd like to see a modern copy with twin 2.4's with a Wiseman transaxle, a tube subframe and real brakes.....scary :o Title: Re: flat eight VW Post by: speedwell on August 29, 2009, 12:47:16 pm here we go phil

Brings up a hundred questions about the car ??? ;) fabs It looks like it was built and raced in the fifties, not the sixties. Any ideas how they coupled the cranks together? |
