Remote-Controlled Car V8 Engine
This small remote-controlled car may look like nothing special at first glance, but upon closer inspection, you’ll realize that it’s actually powered by a functional V8 engine. More specifically, the 28cc TOYAN V8 nitro engine connected to two exhaust pipes that exit behind the wheels, which results in a small growl that can be heard on camera.



Yes, it even has a working clutch, as well as an electric starter on the remote to restart the engine after it stalls. As for why it stalls, theories have ranged from the engine slowing too much in corners to just not enough torque. Want to build your own? The engine itself will run ou about $1,700 USD.

Remote-Controlled Car V8 Engine

It stalls sideways because the wheels have stopped turning ! It’s lost its forward momentum, at low rpm you have practically no torque available from the motor, it’s not a diesel engine & you have a huge flat spot in the power,” said one commenter.
