I just watched the newest /Drive video about the company’s camless engine development. The new technology they are developing is astonishing. The first time I even heard of the company was either PGR2 or Midtown Madness 3.

Haha, I love them too. They innovate at a level that only Tesla even comes close to. (Gotta love back to back posts)

Yeah, I completely agree, plus Christian just seems like such a cool guy. I love the early CC style designs the most.

Didn’t even notice yours, but I’m glad we agreed. This stuff is crazy cool.

I’ve heard of camless tech and even variable displacement tech like 12 years before Koenigsegg ever mentioned it. Odd how everyone thinks it’s “new”

I’d love to hear him do a Ted Talk. It really seems like his only motivation is innovation.

I just always assume it was tried in F1 first

Midtown Madness 3! Fun Fact: I was ranked number 1 in the world in MM3 on Xbox Live. Then I discovered girls. But damn did I love that game.

I saw stuff on Ford testing camless designs in 1996 and recall GM test mules over 10 years ago. Seems to me the accounting departments at the Big 3 have put design advancement and cutting edge production car developments behind once again. It makes me scratch my head when I know somebody has the technology to do something remarkable but can’t seem to make that leap into actually introducing it to the world. Is it because the stock holders might not get enough extra money that year?
