    The pic looks computer generated. Photoshop or whatever it is called.

    Really? I didn't get that impression. Usually my eye is pretty sensitive to those sort of shenanigans. I guess it's possible. I don't know how likely. Typically that web site is reliable.

    At first glance I would have agreed, but click on each image and they look real. I think it is an artifact of the scaling to be put on that page.

    It is the F2004 Modified to accept a Ferrari V8 instead of the original 12 that came in it. Rory Byrne is on this project who was the original Designer of the F2004.

    Saw it on the sports channel here, and it sounded very de-tuned, certainly not like an F1 19.000RPM screamer.

    Tony is correct. it's a V8 engine, up to 600+ hp, and it's based on Ferrari's F2004.
