  • The History of Virgilio Conrero – the Father to the Conrero GT
    The history of Virgilio Conrero – the father to the Conrero GT Translated via Google translate from http://www.memorialconrero.it/Gallery/Virgilio%20Conrero/Virgilio%20Conrero.html The brief summary of the adventurous life of Virgilio Conrero was taken from the book "CONRERO IL MAGO - Story of a man in love with engines", written by Roberto Sgarzi and Emanuele Daniele. This volume has now become very rare and is the only one that tells the story of Virgilio Conrero, with a wealth of details and many beautiful photos. Virgilio Conrero was born in Turin on January 1, 1918, his father Francesco, originally from Saluzzo, is a pioneer of the mechanical industry, his mother Caterina, originally from Biella, is a housewife. The family, as well as Virgilio, is composed of Anita and Dante, a whimsical mathematician who will become a manager at Olivetti di Ivrea as well as a good composer of light music. The father, very charismatic, instilled in Virgilio the passion for mechanics. Life in the Conrero family runs quiet, but the tragedy is around the corner. To take the quality step and enlarge the company, Francesco has installed a gas turbine at the company, a cutting-edge equipment for the time, which can make the difference. The turbine explodes, destroying the company and causing 13 deaths and injuries. Among these also Francesco Conrero who can not do it and dies the day after the tragedy. Virgil's career may change right now ... .. surely he would have become an engineer, a company manager, important, but a little anonymous, but the future will reserve him many sacrifices, but also fame and notoriety as a masterful and imaginative technician.

  • Note 104 Relation of Season-Average Lap Speed To
    Note 104 Relation of Season-average Lap Speed to Power and Weight, 1993 – 1994 Power relation During 1993 informed opinion* was that the Renault RS3/4 engines in the Williams FW15C had an average of 50 HP more than the Ford-Cosworth HB5/6 units in the main rivals, the McLaren MP4/8 and the Benetton B193. All these cars had active suspension and various electronic “driver aids”. This provided an opportunity to compare Lap Speed differences with Power difference. Over the 1993 season the Lap Speed differences at each race in Qualification were as follows, the Williams best speed being compared with the best Ford-powered figure:- *Of the late Brian Lovell, former Managing Director of Weslake Developments. Lap Speed %age lower than Williams Race No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 McLaren [0.1] 2.3 2.4 2.4 Benetton 2.1 2.2 2.2 0.8 2.3 Race No. 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 McLaren 1.8 1.4 [0.1] [-0.6] Benetton 1.8 0.8 0.8 1.4 The [bracketed] entries were discarded: Race 1 at Kyalami by Senna being “too good to be true” and the Benetton figure used; Races 15 and 16 because by then Prost driving the Williams had clinched his 4th Championship at the 14th race and announced his retirement would come at the end of the season. He simply did not need to try as hard as before. The No.2 Williams driver, Damon Hill, had not raced at either of the last 2 circuits (Suzuka and Adelaide) and spun in Qualification at both of them.

  • Porsche 919 Hybrid English.Indd
    Porsche 919 Hybrid Return to top-level sport Porsche is making its comeback to the top-level motorsport arena: with the new 919 Hybrid the sports car brand is sending a platform for pioneering technology to the top category of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) with the undisputed seasonal highlight of the 24-hour Le Mans race. Porsche's reputation precedes it at this venue: with 16 overall victories under its belt, the brand holds the record for this, the most famous endurance race in the world. In 2014 Porsche is returning to the top-level class endurance race after a 16-year absence - namely Le Mans Prototypes (LMP1). Matthias Müller, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG explains: "The new and revolutionary efficiency regulations for this class were what prompted us to take this step. In 2014 it is not going to be the fastest contender who is going to win the sports car world championship and Le Mans, but the car that gets furthest with the defined amount of energy. And it is precisely this challenge that the automotive industry has to face. The 919 Hybrid is like a high speed research laboratory and the most complex racing car Porsche has ever built." The new WEC regulations for the LMP1 racing car gives engineers an unusual amount of leeway and demands pioneering technology, such as hybridisation, downsizing engines and consistent lightweight construction. This is all particularly relevant for the development of future generations of factory-spec sports cars. Maximum sporting performance and highest efficiency are at the heart of "Porsche Intelligent Performance".

  • Founded in the Year Nineteen Twenty-Four March 1980
    March 1980 MOTOR SPORT Founded in the year nineteen twenty-four offices would be possible is something to be discussed. The point is that two-tier control of motoring sport is vital and should take place quickly. Note that there is no suggestion whatsoever that the RAC, which controls British motoring sport with the approval of the Government, should be overthrown; only that it must be restrained from exploiting, knowingly or inadvertently, those Clubs and their hundreds of members which can less-well than the Big Battalions afford to pay ever- increasing permit and licensing fees. That the situation, in a world of galloping inflation and rising petrol costs, has become desperate, is evident when you realise that the Motor Cycling Club, the oldest sporting Motor Club in this country, which continues to organise its classic long-distance trials dating back to 1908, had to pay more in Ministry-of-Transport Authorisation-Fees to run last year’s Land’s End Trial than the RAC did to hold the sponsored International RAC Rally — something to do with the MCC having more entrants who cover a bigger mileage. It is understandable that the Forestry Commission has to charge for the alleged wear-and-tear that the MATTERS OF MOMENT passage of fast-moving rally cars cause to its forest tracks and for spectator protection (ropes and whistles), ■ EXPLOITATION IS A DIRTY WORD! but it is not clear to us why a Government Department should charge the MCC for competitions which use “Man’s rich with little, were his judgement true; public roads, with every competitor paying his or her Nature is frugal, and her wants are few; These few normal road-licence duty.
