bucket of facts here. This is one of my favorite f1 things ever, apologies for how long it ended up being:
In the 1980’s, formula one teams, notably BMW, added toluene to their fuel mixtures. If that word sounds like it’s probably dangerous, that’s because it is — most people know it as rocket fuel. It’s extremely poisonous and carcinogenic, but did have some upsides! For one, it was less volatile [citation needed] than what they had been using, making is slightly less dangerous in the event of a crash (by 1970’s-80’s F1 standards that just means in only turned into a small bomb most of the time). It was also denser and burned faster, so the same amount of toluene could give much more power than the standard F1 fuel.
While the new fuel did allow them to run higher turbo pressures, it did it have a tendency to increase turbo pressure as it was run during the race, and everyone ran turbos at this time. They had to dial back the turbo pressure from what it’s max could’ve been, just to compensate for the power of the fuel — this mitigated the admittedly high likelihood that the engine decided to submit its two weeks notice on two seconds of warning (read: it caught on fire and sometimes kinda maybe sorta just exploded).
Modern f1 fuel has an RON octane rating of 95-102. The toluene aided fuel had an RON octane rating of 120+. For context, your car probably runs on about 87 RON. For those unfamiliar, RON octane ratings measure how much compression fuel can be put under before it sparks, which is how engines work: compress fuel, spark, make power (I can explain that better if you want but short version is that). This incredibly high octane level allowed the engines of the time to be run at a much higher compression, which had a myriad of bonuses to the cars.
Current F1 regulations are 1.6 litre V6 engines that rev to 15,000 RPMs (max allowed) and produce a max of 850 BHP (horsepower) when they’re pushing the edge of their abilities without aid of electric components like H/KERS, which is used to boost the cars to around 1,000 BHP.
Brabham-BMW’s 1983 engine took Nelson Pique to his WDC that year. It was a 1.5 litre inline 4 (so smaller than current) and produced 12,000 RPMs, as the restrictions were a bit tighter there back then. Without electronic aid like today and a smaller engine than your standard Toyota Camry, it easily produced 850 BHP at race trim, the version built to last a whole race. When in qualifying trim, with everything tuned to maximum to get the most out of the car without it blowing up, it ran at 1,250 BHP. Original testing put it at producing over 1,400 BHP, but BMWs testing facilities couldn’t measure past that — the car put out more power than they could even register.
The teams also had a sneaky loophole: the amount of fuel allowed to be held at once in the car (refueling was banned at this time) was effectively limited to how large the gas tank could be. The teams realized that they could literally freeze the fuel and store it at cold temperatures. This compacted the fuel, allowing them to put more fuel into the gas tank — more fuel per fuel, really. This allowed drivers to be more aggressive and push harder more often, not having to worry about running out of fuel.
In case this whole toluene thing seems bad, don’t worry! It’s only used in nail polish, rubber, adhesives, and paints :3

LMX Sirex 2300 HCS, 1969. Designed by Franco Scaglione with fibreglass bodywork by Eurostyle built on a chassis engineered by Gioacchino Colombo (the mastermind behind the Ferrari's V12). Some 42 cars were made between 1969 and 1974, all powered by Ford's 2.3 litre V6 with some later cars being turbocharged. The Hella headlamps came from a 1965 BMW 2000 while the taillights are off a Fiat 850 Spider (the prototype had twin round taillights).

in the beginning… (the first fact)
bucket of facts here. This is one of my favorite f1 things ever, apologies for how long it ended up being:

New Post has been published on https://www.vividracing.com/blog/139824-2/
In 2022, car enthusiasts all over the United States were anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Nissan Z. In the new Z, not 400Z, it seems Nissan answered all of our prayers. Equipped with a 3.0L VR30DDTT Twin Turbo V6 and a 6 speed FS6R31 manual transmission, the new Z34 (Kouki Z34) seemed to fill all the gaps Nissan left in the Zenki Z34 and R35 that left true drivers wanting more. With a power output at an even 400hp (298kw; 406ps) and 350 ftlbs (475 N-m 48 kg-m) of torque, the new Z34 was unlike any of its predecessors and a breath of fresh air in the middle of the ‘Sports Car Electrification Movement’. Nissan then broke some hearts, mine included, when they announced the 420hp, 384ftlb Z34 Nismo would be equipped with a rebadged Mercedes 9G-Tronic automatic transmission manufactured under Jatco as the JR913E and that there would be no manual option for the Nismo Z. Their reasoning: Even with more power, the automatic sport model would be faster in the ¼ mile than a manual Nismo, and they feared consumers would care.
Fast forward to release day, and the reasonably priced Nissan Z saw dealer markups of over $70,000 over MSRP on what could be Nissan’s final true sports car. Somehow, clout and fear of missing out beat common sense and they sold like hotcakes. So much so, that as of the writing of this article, the least expensive USED Nissan Z on the market is being offered at $7,000 above NEW MSRP. Now to bring it all into perspective, if you were an early buyer of a Nissan Z, you’re punching in Audi RS5 Coupe, BMW M4 Competition xDrive, and C8 Corvette territory price-wise, except you likely have cloth seats, less power, and are a good deal slower from 0-60 than your newly priced out competition… and the EFI scientist here at Vivid Racing just can’t let you go out like that.
Interested in this Nissan Z Tuning Box? Order Here
While we have options for your interior woes, and styling upgrades that make the car look the part of the markup, we were focused on two things and two things only: horsepower and torque… and drivability (I’m aware that’s three things). When this Two-tone Ikazuchi Yellow Tricoat / Super Black Kouki Z34 rolled into our dyno lab, we were impressed. It put down an underrated 405hp and 475ftlbs of torque through the automatic transmission, which was more than we all expected. Immediately wanting to unlock the ECU and start our flash process, the customer let us know the factory warranty was very important to him and that he would like to keep it. Luckily here at VR Tuned, we have developed a Warranty-safe tune with our VR Tuned Tuning Box. Basically, this system acts as a piggy back. It requires no cutting or splicing and does not modify the way any of the factory sensors work. Instead, through science and electrical engineering and magic, it provides safe, modified data to the factory ECU, allowing us modify boost, fuel and spark strategies that ultimately results in a 65hp increase over stock and 85 more ftlbs or torque through our VR Forged wheels.
To make it more user-friendly for the driver, we included optional Bluetooth control for both iOS and Android platforms, allowing the user to quickly change between 7 performance maps, or simply turn the tuning box off for emissions purposes from their phone. With 3 active drive modes (Race, Sport, and Eco) included, and German tuning box construction, we feel Vivid Racing has crafted the ultimate tuning solution for Nissan Z owners looking to retain their factory warranty. We also found the best exhaust system for making big power, and the best suspension system to keep it all under control, so there’s no need to take it one step at a time. The next stop for us and the Z should be a track day, so subscribe if you want to see more.
So whether you want to be the talk of the town at the next local cars and coffee, or you want to take a few hot laps around the track in extreme comfort, shoot me an email at [email protected] to get your Z right.

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio: A Performance Powerhouse with Unmatched Luxury
Tumblr media
H1: Introduction to the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio The Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is a masterpiece of Italian engineering, blending raw power, sleek design, and luxury into one compelling package. With its unparalleled performance, precision handling, and a touch of opulence, this sports sedan has carved a niche in the high-performance automotive market.
H2: Unleashing Power: Engine and Performance
H3: Twin-Turbocharged V6 Brilliance At the heart of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio lies a ferocious 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine. This beast produces an astonishing 505 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque, enabling it to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds. With a top speed of 191 mph, the Giulia Quadrifoglio is not just fast—it’s a force to be reckoned with on both track and road.
H3: Rear-Wheel Drive Precision and Transmission The rear-wheel-drive layout of the Giulia Quadrifoglio is perfectly balanced, allowing for sharp handling and precise cornering. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, the shifts are smooth and responsive, giving drivers complete control in every driving scenario.
H3: Advanced Suspension and Braking Systems Equipped with a mechanical limited-slip differential and adaptive suspension, the Giulia Quadrifoglio ensures superior cornering stability and ride comfort. The Brembo braking system adds exceptional stopping power, making it a true performer on the road.
H2: Interior Excellence and Modern Technology
H3: Luxurious Cabin Design Step inside the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio, and you’ll be greeted by a driver-focused cabin that exudes elegance and sophistication. Premium leather upholstery, carbon fiber accents, and Alcantara finishes create a sporty yet refined atmosphere.
H3: Next-Generation Infotainment System The 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster offers customizable displays, ensuring vital driving information is always within view. The central infotainment system, featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, delivers seamless smartphone integration and effortless control of media, navigation, and vehicle settings.

Top Luxury SUV Mistake That's Costing You Thousands
You know, when it comes to luxury SUVs, two names that often come up are the Lexus RX 350 and the BMW X5. Both have their loyal fan bases, and honestly, they cater to slightly different tastes. Let’s dig into what makes each of these vehicles special and maybe help you figure out which one aligns more with your lifestyle. First off, let’s talk performance. If you’re someone who values a smooth, comfortable ride, the Lexus RX 350 is going to be right up your alley. With its 3.5-liter V6 engine cranking out 295 horsepower, it’s all about that serene driving experience. You can expect around 20 miles per gallon in the city and 27 on the highway, which isn’t too shabby for a luxury SUV. It’s designed for those long road trips where you want to kick back and enjoy the ride rather than feel every bump in the road. Now, if you’re the type who prefers a bit more excitement behind the wheel, the BMW X5 might be calling your name. With a base 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 that pumps out 335 horsepower, it’s definitely more performance-oriented. It’s got that sporty handling that makes driving feel like an event, not just a chore. Plus, with all-wheel drive standard on most trims, it’s ready for whatever the road throws at you. So, if you want comfort, go Lexus; if you want power and sportiness, X5 is your pick. Now, let’s move into luxury and interior quality. The RX 350 is like stepping into a plush, cozy retreat. You’ve got high-quality materials and a design that screams elegance. It’s all about comfort here, with plush seating and a quiet cabin that makes you feel like royalty. And don’t forget the tech! You get a 9.8-inch touchscreen, with options for a 14-inch upgrade, plus all the safety features you could want. On the flip side, the BMW X5 brings a modern, tech-savvy vibe. It features a 12.3-inch touchscreen and a digital gauge cluster that feels cutting-edge. The interior is spacious, and while it’s luxurious, it has a more driver-centric feel. If you want that classic luxury experience, the RX 350 is your go-to. But if you’re after a high-tech atmosphere with a bit more room, the X5 has got you covered.

And celebrate its beginnings
Thank you for having followed
notes: it's an interesting format for a two seater sports boat, basically about fitting 2 jet ski engines in it, Mercury does make V6 engines as well so this would be a V12, might turn out to be amazing
It really is thrilling, with luggage compartments this sports boat could cross the Gibraltar straight easily for going to Spain, and it could go anywhere in the Mediterranean by hoping from spot to spot along the coast, it's quite a fun boat to have
Conversely to SP80 this one doesn't depend on wind, SP1-X, and by the looks of it a beach head that doesn't actually require a port
This is an interesting line of thinking, at 40m, SP4-X, fills the bridge in between these 2 project and can face rougher seas for 4 passengers including a pilot, a V24
It's smaller segments but SP4-X could go as far as Indonesia, starting from Tangiers, Morocco
These are variations of size and motorisations that yield us the following, final scope of this project
SP8-X, 80m, superboat, transatlantic
SP4-X, 40m, boat, long range
SP1-X, 10m, sports
And so now there is 2 logical deductions, BMW is going into motorboats with its M division, Mercedes has done it with AMG there is no sound reason to lose revenues to them
Second the SP80 team look more and more like BMW employees and the start of its motorboats division, ie SP80 is a strategical technology and know how acquisition company for BMW
There is a 3rd conclusion, if you understand corporate strategy to be the same thing as a chess game, because AMG uses Mercury Marine engines BMW has either to be the first to acquire Mercury Marine for its motorsports business line, or develop its own marine engines
Because Mercury Marine's technological DNA is different from BMW, it is the second option that has to be pursued, where motorboats become a full fledged product line of BMW motorisations and boats, buy the patents that it needs, develop its own, grow its R&D and patents portfolio under BMW M Marine
You cannot not put something on the market and expect revenues from it, motorboats is a strong steady revenue industry where BMW can capitalize on its brand to carve its market share
It is the same clients that buy BMW high end cars that go looking for a motorboat, and BMW has to have a concentric approach towards the needs of its clientele
