" This is a pretty good way to announce that your company has made an already absurd car even better: driving it up Lord March&amp;#039;s driveway very quickly. That&amp;#039;s the method BAC has employed with the revised 2016 Mono, which gains 25 brake horsepower over the previous model courtesy of an approximately 200-cc displacement bump. That&amp;#039;s because the 2.3-liter Cossie lump is out, and a 2.5-liter Mountune engine derived from a Duratec unit (seemingly the Mazda L5 as seen in some Ford products) takes its place. In full-race spec, as it is in the Mono, it employs a dry-sump system and upgraded internals. In the Mono, it&amp;#039;ll also be throttle-by-wire.  Remember, the 2.3-liter car weighed 1278 lbs. dry. I can&amp;#039;t imagine the Mountune lump adds a significant amount of weight. That&amp;#039;s an admirable power-to-weight ratio by any standard.  BAC&amp;#039;s claiming it sent the 2016 Mono up the hill in (unofficial) record time, but the run below isn&amp;#039;t a record. It&amp;#039;s a practice by test driver Oliver Webb. Enjoy.      via Evo UK "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
