Peugeot 908




This is the Peugeot 908 mad for Grand Prix racing. This is the newest model of the 908 mad in 2011 and can reach speeds of up to 215 M.P.H. This car is mad strictly for track racing. The creators spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours making this vehicle as areo dynamic as possible. The design allows air to flow into several small vents throughout the car that lead air to the engine to cool it down. They also have several leading to the cockpit so the driver dosent heat up. The enormous spoiler on the back keeps the car stable and keeps it from roiling at speeds of 215 M.P.H around turns and hills. The spoiler apply force of 900 lbs. so theoretical this car would be able to drive upside down. Made by France this 12 cylinder monster simply sounds like a souped up vacuum cleaner. This is because it only takes deical. For 24 hour racing the engine has 4 water coolers surrounding the engine and 2 carburetors.
