A legendary F1 machine that marks the end of the Turbo era.
McLaren fought in the 1988 F1 World Championship season in the MP4/4. This is a low-height, low-profile tractor designed by Gordon Murray and Steve Nichols, powered by a Honda RA168E engine. This is also the last year for superchargers in Formula racing. With the maximum allowable boost pressure dropping from 4 bar to 2.5 bar, and the total fuel on the car reduced by 45 liters to 150 liters, this is supposed to be a very difficult season for the turbochargers. But in the end, the McLaren Honda MP4/4 completely dominated the season with 15 wins out of 16 races. Of course, the chassis has been very well developed, but the Honda engine that balances fuel consumption and power efficiency extremely well is arguably the main factor in their victory. The 12 MP4/4 is a car driven by Ayrton Senna. Senna has had an incredible performance this year with 13 pole positions and 8 wins and a rider’s championship.
Pontiac GTO ‘The Judge’ 69
This extreme sports package was introduced for later GTO models, the original muscle car.
The original Pontiac GTO launched in 1964 was a huge hit and was said to be the original touring muscle car. However, the 1968 second-generation model changed to a more style-oriented fastback, and while it was not lacking in performance, it could not stand up to the more powerful rivals that had come onto the market. . In an attempt to make a comeback, General Motors released ‘The Judge’ in 1969. Costing just $332, this sports package included a surprising amount of standard equipment. It includes unique racing decals and stripes, a Hurst shifter, heavy-duty suspension, wider tires and a rear spoiler. The engine has been upgraded to the 6.6L ‘Ram Air III’ V8, which is listed at 360 BHP but is expected to produce more. As a result ‘The Judge’ was able to lead the competition in both presence and performance, garnering widespread attention. However, just a year later, strict emissions regulations went into effect in the United States, and muscle cars like the GTO began to decline.
Porsche Cayman GT4 ’16”
Cayman focuses on motorsport with the power of 911.
As the 911 has always been a mainstay of Porsche’s motorsport efforts, racing-focused 911 models have always been part of their portfolio and are ready to go on public display. However, 2015, saw the appearance of an exception. A sports car version of the less powerful midsize Cayman coupe was introduced as the Cayman GT4. Its most notable feature is the powertrain. Based on the 911 Carrera S platform, it combines a 3.8L 6-cylinder engine with a 6-speed manual transmission. Furthermore, it produces 379 BHP, more than the base model 911 Carrera. The brakes and suspension also use parts from the 991 GT3, and the seat height has been lowered by 30 mm from the standard position. The exterior has also been changed to match the car’s new image with a unique front spoiler and a fixed rear spoiler. A quick glance at the options list will also show you where this model is focused, featuring a roll cage, fire extinguisher and 6-point harness for the driver’s seat.
