The screaming V10 Toyota so fast it broke the ribs of two test drivers!
I'm sure everyone that watches this video will instantly think two things "Holy hell that sounds amazing" and "That corners ridiculously fast", and that's both true, but it's madder than that- It corners that fast that it broke the ribs of two of the drivers during the test you see in this video!
The car is the Toyota TS010, a 3.5ltr 50 valve V10 race car that revved to 12000rpm and made over 750bhp in top spec, and this video is the car being tested at Eastern Creek (Now Sydney Motorsports Park) in Australia.
During these test days, the car was doing the first corner flat out at over 310kmh, ie almost 200mph. There's a bump in the middle of this corner, which is no real issue on 99.9% of cars, but at these insane speeds and incredible downforce that bump is more serious, and on this test main driver Andy Wallace (Who's now the official Bugatti test driver btw) broke two ribs going over that bump, and then later the second test driver Hitoshi Ogawa did the same!
While the drivers were in a lot of pain, the team was quite happy as the car was even stronger than the drivers lol.
This car truly was ridiculously fast too, with test lap times on par with an F1 car of that era with a full fuel load.
While the car was amazing, it didn't get used more than in about a dozen races as after one year of racing the two championships it was built for both ended, and the car was retired.
