Revving beyond the redline: The Carbon Fiber Revolution
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2011/10/carbon-fibre-revolution.html
Revving beyond the redline. Thursday, October 13, 2011. The Carbon Fiber Revolution. Weight reduction is one of the key areas of vehicle development where the car manufacturers never seem to be resting on their laurels. The multifold increase in the strategies adopted to bring down the weight of the car in order to shave few tenths of a second in the sprint times is justifiable from a few recent stellar designs. Let’s a consider a case-study to understand it better. Yup, material improvements are so need...

Revving beyond the redline: Lamborghini Sesto elemento : Redefining supercar madness?
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2011/06/lamborghini-sesto-elemento-redefining.html
Revving beyond the redline. Friday, June 17, 2011. Lamborghini Sesto elemento : Redefining supercar madness? The recent news of the Italian marquee’s much hyped concept Sesto Elemento getting the green signal for production has started sending shivers down the spine of other supercar manufacturers. It is a supercar (read hypercar) that possesses half of Bugatti Veyron’s power, but is equally expensive, quick and most importantly weighs around 1870lbs less than the quad turbo beast! When one hears the nam...

Revving beyond the redline: Let’s welcome the Kizashi
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2011/01/lets-welcome-kizashi.html
Revving beyond the redline. Monday, January 3, 2011. Let’s welcome the Kizashi. When one hears the name “Maruti Suzuki“ the first thing that flashes his mind is the thought of A and B segment hatchbacks. Both the SX4 and Swift Dzire did not contribute significantly in the competitive sedan market and the likes of the Fiesta and Civic outperformed them. But has Maruti got the time for revitalization?

Revving beyond the redline: McLaren F1
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2012/01/mclaren-f1.html
Revving beyond the redline. Friday, January 20, 2012. McLaren has a strong pedigree in Formula one in the name of Vodafone McLaren-Mercedes (also known as McLaren racing). Its automotive division on the other hand, McLaren Automotive, has yet to enjoy prolonged success. The Woking based company shook its leg in the roadcar segment with the launch of F1 in 1992 which happened to rule the roost for a considerable period. The F1’s ability to hit 231mph earned it the name of. The Fastest Production Car.

Revving beyond the redline: F10 M5 - Benchmark sedan?
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2011/10/f10-m5-benchmark-sedan.html
Revving beyond the redline. Friday, October 7, 2011. F10 M5 - Benchmark sedan? Car manufacturers leave no stone unturned when it comes to increasing performance. From adopting massive weight reduction strategies to bolting on tantalizing high revving powerplants, they succeed in getting the dumbfounding performance figures. And cranking them out from a sports sedan is never a no-brainer and poses a host of challenges like the cost, fuel economy and so forth. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Revving my...

Revving beyond the redline: New regulations in F1 – boon or bane?
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-regulations-in-f1-boon-or-bane.html
Revving beyond the redline. Tuesday, December 28, 2010. New regulations in F1 – boon or bane? The pinnacle of motor racing is striving towards creating greener and cleaner technologies and this is vindicated by new engine regulations, the implementation of Kinetic Energy Recovery System [KERS] and so forth. What’s more interesting is that the technologies are being mimicked in road cars to bring them on par with the F1 counterparts. Three cheers to racing! Will the cars’ dependency on the recovery ...

Revving beyond the redline: Are innovations in F1 worthwhile?
http://jharinarayanan.blogspot.com/2011/02/are-innovations-in-f1-worthwhile.html
Revving beyond the redline. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Are innovations in F1 worthwhile? Formula one is the paradigm of groundbreaker in technical lingo. And there is no denial. Every season, there is at least one team pioneering in a technology which not only gives it the upper hand over its rivals but also forces them to adapt to the changes. Because that’s what F1 is all about! 65279;Double decker diffuser - Brawn GP '09. F-duct - McLaren '10. 65279; . L-shaped sidepod - McLaren '11. Not to mentio...
