I find it really impressive with over 100 hp/liter in a diesel engine!

12-cylinder 5.5 liter turbodiesel

They can change gearboxes in 6-8 minutes, right ? Any bets on # of box changes at LeMans ?
I wonder how long the 'time on tank' will be for this car...the lower R's that it turns and efficiency of a direct injection diesel should really screw with everyone's heads.
Har. It'll smell funny, but it'll be pretty cool.

I don't think they can actually change the gearbox anymore. I believe the rule was changed to where the gear box has to be rebuilt, this is what caught Alex Job out at Sebring last year.
