Formula 1 racing cars are designed for maximum acceleration. To achieve this, their engine power must be high and their weight low. Their power density also achieves outstanding values of over 1.3 hp per kg of vehicle weight.
With over 1.5 hp/kg, the Spike ASM drive unit is built even more efficiently and is therefore unsurpassed as a track vehicle. An average car weighing 2000 kg would need 3000 hp for the same power density. What does this enormous power mean for roller coaster construction?
