"Honda&amp;#039;s offering a new turbocharged V6 to World Endurance Championship (WEC) teams. Based on the turbo 2.2-liter V6 Honda offers Izod IndyCar teams, and following on the heels of its return to F1, engineers have optimized the powerplant to play nice with energy-recuperation systems. Current WEC regulations allow private teams a certain amount of leeway in terms of the amount of energy-recuperation assist they use, and the new Honda V6 will allow engineers to customize their drivelines to fit the team&amp;#039;s needs. There&amp;#039;s no word on specifications just yet, but in IndyCar guise, the powerplant yields between 550\u2013700 hp and wraps to 12,000 rpm. We&amp;#039;re just tickled at the notion of hearing a screaming Honda mill around Circuit de la Sarthe for 24 hours. Brilliant. Via World Car Fans. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
