I vote yes to remove so I can punish myself driving my Miata 15+ highway miles one way to work on old Hoosiers just because why not

How Koenigsegg’s 2.0-Liter No-Camshaft Engine Makes 600 Horsepower
https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/car-technology/a31451281/koenigsegg-gemera-engine-specs-analysis/
So cool, it can even run as a two-stroke if it feels like it. I would like to swap this into every vehicle I have.

Take off the turbos, throw the triple in a motorcycle and you have the coolest bike ever that can switch from two stroke to four stroke on the fly

That actually seems like a good application, just a 2cyl 500 that would have normal fuel economy 4 stroke mode and then "off road only" 2 stroke mode complete with red "do not press" button beside the throttle. With so few valves total seems like it wouldn't be so expensive?
RE: Automotive News Discussion - .RJ - 03-16-2020
I dont think you people understand how a 2 stroke works

what am I missing? It can fire every rotation instead of every other, sounds like a two stroke to me. Now, this thing can't run very fast in that mode, but maybe that can be improved?
RE: Automotive News Discussion - .RJ - 03-16-2020
it has valves. its an otto cycle.

They make 2 strokes with exhaust valves. Maybe not in the 100% traditional sense, but they are definitely exhaust valves. I don't think anything that defines a two stroke includes whether or not it has valves.

All of your Mom's make for a good two strokes

Yeah even though it doesn’t use traditional valving it’s still only two strokes to cycle it instead of four

A 2 stroke doesnt have a camshaft. Seriously guys.

Well you got me there.

992 GT3 looks about finished. Aero looks way more aggressive than before, but that makes sense since that's probably the best way for a car like the GT3 to pick up lap time. Can't imagine they're gonna add more than 20-25 hp.
I wonder how much cars like this are going to be delayed because of coronavirus.

Not feeling the front air dam or hood scoops. I'll never buy one though.
