Been looking through as many photos and specs as possible. Can't wait to see this beast. When I saw, this photo, however, it got me a bit concerned.
As you can see the gearbox is located at the back, which is great for weight distribution. The concern I have is the shaft that travels from the engine to the gearbox. This shaft will be spinning up to 7-7.5k rpm. For a shaft of this length to be spinning at that speed, it would need to be perfectly balanced. This is very difficult to achieve. That is why formula one have gone to V8's. Because the shorter shaft is easier to balance at those high speeds. If the gearbox was in the front, it wouldn't be a problem as the shaft would be spinning a lot slower due to being geared down. This is how most rear wheel drives operate.
What do you guys think?
