hehe

They are 100 cu. in. engines running at 15,000 rpms. And the amount of fuel they can use is limited too.

This I will say: Audi have been running diesels in Le Mans for several years with great, great success.

I went to Laguna Seca in 2008 to watch the diesel in P1 and it was strange that the big car made such a low throated (low rpm) sound. It was a V8 that year. It also won the race.
