Reader Alex tipped us off to this fully awesome carbon-fiber monocoque Formula SAE car that a friend of his worked on while at Western Washington University. While the chassis is impressive, the best part of it to us is the engine: .554L, Kawasaki 250 heads, custom machined-from-billet block and crank, and oh, eight freaking cylinders. We can't wait to see what they'll come up with for an encore. a quad-turbo W-16 125, maybe?
