I like the gold paint, those cars look cool. Look in the airbox. Hard to believe how a paint job changes things.

What is with the airbox? Is that an inlet restrictor?

[Easy]

Yes, they are running the restricted V10.

Sure thing, that. How else can they keep V10s from kicking the new V8 butts?

But I think that is just a quickie for testing. With a proper budget there is no way I'd want to run that airbox configuration during the season. Way too much unnecessary drag and air buffeting as it goes into the plenum.

They could limit the number of spark plugs to 8..... :)

:rofl:

I suppose that is exactly why the first "V-8" 2.4l tests were done with V-10 blocks and a V-8 crank and some missing or modified internals.

The nose on that Renault looks more like a mouth.
