That was a great video!

Here's the 2005 Ferrari F1 V-10 header I keep in my living room as sculpture:

I was kinda curious because I've seen inconel tubing for exhausts sold for around $100/foot, insainly expensive but worth it for those high heat areas.

Seriously, it's a piece of art. The craftsmanship is remarkable.

I'm sure it went faster than that on the flight over here. :spin1:

It surprising how hot they get with no airflow over them.
