90kg engine inc running gear.

2.4 V8, 14 years development, did Caterham know something about F1 rule changes last year that no-one else did???

Caterham to supply F1 engines in the future prehapes????

Cool indeed, but still not as impressive as a Caparo T1 IMO.

Sounds nice, though it would be good of them to relese some pictures that actually show the car instead of trying to be all arty and ghey.

I would be very surprised, as all there is an engine development freeze in F1 at the moment, and an F1 engine will be a lot different to that, try making an engine that can cope with a 19000 rpm limit and also be light weight, and also they are limited to 4 valves per cylinder
