Toyota MR2 given a beastly avatar with an aircraft radial engine

Recently, pictures of a Toyota MR2, that has been clubbed with an old aircraft radial engine, were seen making rounds on the internet. Seeing these photos many thought that it is a prank and nothing like this exists in real. But let me confirm here that if you have seen any such pictures and laughed thinking the video/photo has been fabricated, then you will be shocked to learn the video is real.

In reality, someone has come up with such a vehicle that will fight head-on in a 24 Hours of LeMons race competition, with all its worth. The engine has been pulled out from 1940s military training plane. The engine is quite powerful and has a 160hp. The designer has prepared the engine with MegaSquirt EFI.

Once the engine starts, it will, without a second though, roar like a lion and will scare everyone around with its power. But the deadly combination of a plane’s engine and Toyota MR2 will be quite a treat for the eyes and will pull a lot of crowd as well.
