I got this magazine in the mail finally. I thought I was going to have to drop into the local dealership to pick it up.

This is the side of the centerfold that got me all charged ;-) It shows a breakdown of the R8 race car's engine and transmission with most parts labeled.

R8 DV valves

[it is hard to tell, but they are just to the left of the turbochargers in the picture above. ]

Well, if that one gave you goosebumps, this one should really get you excited.

I wonder if with a hammer, a screw driver and hack saw we could do some retro-fitting?
