Brm is known for its V16 engine, compared to formula one engines of today the that V16 sounded as it was on steroids, you can view and hear on youtube the sound of the machine I suggest that you guys check it out

Yeah that 1.5-liter supercharged V16 sounds absolutely amazing! And it produced 600bhp @ 12 000rpm. Woah. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZMPDCNyQxE

erm... is the motors in wheel or on the chassis. Its on the chassis not in wheel looking at the drive shafts. To have a 175hp motor in a wheel is not really possible unless you have a very big or wide wheel. For a race car an in wheel motor would be detrimental to the unsprung weight.

The pictures suggest the four individual motors are mounted to the chassis and connected to the wheels via drive shafts.
