DP1 Update – Hayabusa V8 only

By Paul Crowe

DP1 with Hayabusa V8Thought I would drop in and see how the DP1 was coming along and there was this new CAD image showing the placement of the Hayabusa V8. Dennis has decided that the car will most likely only be available with the Hayabusa V8 instead of as an option to the Hayabusa 4 cylinder. He also said the car will have a sequential gearbox with a real reverse gear.

Looking at the drawing shows the component layout very clearly with engine next to the driver and indicates how weight distribution should fall very close to 50/50. I can’t wait to see how the finished car performs but the build process is fascinating to watch. Beautiful work!
