Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
we used to do this with 5 hp B&S go kart engines by leaving off the scraper oil ring and adding nitro ethane in the crankcase oil till they caught on.
Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
2-stroke comes mind.Was at Rotax factory in austria. They claimed there gp road race bike engines made more hp per cc than f1.
Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
Yeah I curious as to what additive they might be using in the oil that would not effect the lubricity, if that's a word?

???. Who you referring to? The guy on the video in the link, or me, considering you commented after my reply.
Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
Have them measure the displacement of the 2 stroke, through 720 degrees, like they do a 4 stroke, and see which one is making more power per cc.

Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
I remember some of our comp competitors back in the late 80's mixing nitro in the oil to gain a few hundredths in a final. Seemed sketchy to me but I guess they figured one pass was not going to kill it.

Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
Doesn't apply for F1-regulations, they have unlimited air supply, only burnable fuel is limited. Anything which can be burned in combustion cycle will add power in F1, strange that they left such a loophole in regulations.
Re: F1 Burns Oil For Power
The topic has already been covered recently at great length down there.
There is no S on the end of RPM.
