Keniss F154

8,007 FlyingBathtub  1.5 years ago

The F154 was Keniss's first endeavor in Formula One. Like Ferrari, Keniss had a car that was effective with the regulations. The car was equipped with a 1.5 Liter 4 cylinder engine (hence the name 154). The engine made 150 horsepower, compared to the 200 that the Ferrari Tipo had. The car was strikingly fast compared even to the Tipo, but was very unreliable. The engine had issues with stress cracking in the engine block, and as a result Keniss only had a double-finish in one race, with a single car finishing in 4 other races that year. When the car wasn't parked on the side of the track, it was famous for being fast, loud, and aerodynamic (for the time). Keniss would fix the engine problems the following year, and would score a 3rd place finish at Monza. The engine itself was used in F1 until 1963, with numerous small teams using it. It also was used in road-cars (with significantly less power) until 1993. The 154 I4 also gave birth to the famous 308 V8 used by Keniss from 1970-1979.

Features:
Detailed engine and engine bay, including a coolant tank, spark plugs, a battery, and 2 radiators

    Oh my, this thing has blown up XD. When I was building this high-detail protoype, I didn't expect it to smash the 72 hour download count of the T1 by almost double lol.
