I keep hearing that word "budget"... and keep seeing carbon fiber pieces on a race-spec Mini with two engines... must be one hell of a budget.
@arriviste2020
@arriviste2020 10 лет назад
You can buy sheets of carbon fibre and build virtually anything you like!(common sense being the driver) Building,(and fitting) a roll-cage yourself can save a lot of money. The rear engine and tranny unit? Who knows where he got them.....a salvage yard,insurance write-off etc? You can save money by doing as much work as you can personally. Buy a Caterham-7 right out of the box as a kit, and see how much money you can save. Time is the greatest outlay, and I can tell you, working on any project like that in the video is very hard going.I'll bet he had a lot of help.::)

I agree. It’s because he is 100% invested in the project. Not just invested financially, he is the guy that had to wiggle the thing to squeeze it in next to the other thing and make it work. The pride he has 100% equity in it. He deserves to be proud.

GOD I LOVE THIS. What lots of people don't think about is how light that car actually is. And 500 hp might not be SUPER impressive to some people used to watching Jay's show (having some 1000 hp and up cars) that's impressive for a little mini. Not to mention whenever you do a 2 engine car, the torque to hp ratio is just unbelievable. I bet that thing pulls like a beast. So awesome.

@tcv4
@tcv4 10 лет назад
I think he said that because it would be a lot cheaper and less complex to buy a single engine that makes 500 horsepower. However, this really isn't the case because it was cheaper to buy an additional 250 horsepower engine than to scrap the engine already in the mini and buy a 500 hp engine. I suppose he could have sold the engine out of the mini to offset the cost of a larger engine, but the cool factor goes way up when you have two motors.

Jay said "it's easy when you have more money than brains." He was talking about guys like himself who can afford to build anything they can think of. Point in case, Jay has a rapid prototype machine for making parts that costs more than my house. So, he was complementing this builder on his hard work and what he was able to accomplish on a budget.

Yeah, he seems like a great guy, and is smart enough to use his money to surround himself with smart people. But I remember reading his 1000hp Toronado project article in Popular Mechanics years ago. He stated that it was originally "front wheel drive and with a transverse mounted V8"; half right. I had a Toronado at the time, and knew that it had an longitudinal mounted engine. Since then I've still enjoyed Jay's automotive endeavors, but know that he is the passion (and funding), not the expert.

This man has made the car that (as a former automotive R&D guy), I have had in the back of my mind (waiting for me to get rich enough to be able to essentially throw tens of thousands of dollars away like used confetti), since the mid 1980's. Having electronically controlled throttles are the key to making any twin engine car project reliable enough to be anything other than a toy with the intermittent embarrassment option as standard equipment. Great job! 🎯

nathan Field Not exactly, I've heard jay use that saying before on himself. The point being comming up with some crazy outlandish idea and then throwing money at it. The idea that a sane brain would never agree to this and money taking over the decision making process. This guy just put 2 motors in a car and runs them in sync. I wouldn't call him uneducated. He may not be good at explaining things but that is not the same as not knowing what he is doing. His greatest failure is not knowing he can't do this. So with blind ignorance he went ahead and did what he didn't know couldn't be done.

***** Plus not to forget the best implementations yet: Porsche 991 GT3 (2013-present) (in sync high speed; out of sync below 30mph) capable of beating the likes of a mclaren mp4 round a track despite a 140hp deficit and 200kg weight disadvantage. Porsche reckons 4 wheel steering is worth at least the equivalent of an extra 70hp on the track. Porsche 991 turbo & turbo S (2013-present) Porsche 918 spyder (2013-present) world record for fastest production car round nurburgring @ 6mins 57seconds

Don't forget that most rock crawlers, monster trucks, some JLG man lifts, and even the B-52 uses steering at the back as well as the front. Also, thanks for the backup MrZebrawr. I was seeing red and couldn't comment without going batshit crazy pissed LOL!

onlyoneidiotlikeme Actually, you'd be surprised; Jaques has quite the background in composite work. He did all of the carbon fiber work on the car himself, including the molds for that tailgate. So I guess time is where the big expense was!

@michaelvann1353 10 лет назад
Andres said it best. The "budget" part was to keep up with a $200,000 Porsche on a race track. If the whole build comes in at under $100,000, then he is racing on a budget. see 4:30 mark

enginemaxcarb. What are you trying to say? 2 Bike engines perform well enough to race against a 1 engine Porsche and cost more than half as much while doing it?
@Saki630
@Saki630 10 лет назад
Tom Hornsby You say that as if it is impossible for those two engines to perform similarly to one large one. If you wanted the larger engine I wonder how it would fit in that shoe box. Also since you are not the builder, how do you know he paid for that hatch or even what the amount was? You have a lot of assumptions which is dangerous for your argument.

If you look back in your racing history, the Fittipaldi Brothers, Emerson and Wilson raced a twin engine VW Beetle back in the 60s against Porsches and Ferraris in Brazil. But the just bolted two 4-cylinder engine together and made it mid-engine. And back in the pre-war GP days Alfa ran a Bi-motor GP car.

Unless you make your own forms and pull a vacuum pump out of an old refrigerator....the guy stated that he formed his own carbon fiber wing, I doubt he spent over 300 bucks to do it himself.

you have misinterpreted the word budget, i posted this reply to another guy so i'll paste it here too for your knowledge! :) Most of it is carbon fibre, however 2 things you must consider.. 1. carbon comes in many different grades and qualities 2. the word "Budget" does not mean a small amount of money but money he is willing to spend or has set aside for the project ;) you can have a budget of 100 or 1000,000 ^^ Just think of it like this. Every engineering project ever carried out has been assigned a budget, it's how people manage costs and keep on top of their spending so everything is affordable. Budget is also sometimes a joke word used in the industry for when something is ridiculously overpriced but "it's all in the "budget"
