"...the racing version of the C12, which will be powered by a six-litre BTD-tuned Mercedes V12."
What/who is BTD? I thought AMG was developing this motor. |

I thought they were going to support it, because I thought that was one of Zondas big selling points, was that you could get the engine serviced at Mercadees Dealers......guess not.

Well, originally Mercedes didn't want AMG to tune the race motors. Then when they made the program public a month or so back, they said AMG *would* be tuning the motors. Now apparently they are not?
And who is BTD? I've never heard of that tuning company before. |

Maybe Mercedes wants to keep the promise to stay away from LeMans after the CLR flipped '99. The return as an engine supplier might be against the opinion of a CLR-brandmarked Motorsport-Boss...
If this was the case, it would be a shame! |

Somehow, it didn't stop them from entering in '00-'01 with Oreca, when they were running the MOPAR 6.0L V8 in both the Reynard 2KQ and Dallara chassis.
It always seems that most German manufacturers never want to supply any engines to independent opperators, unless they can be in-charge of the development process. Territorial, maybe, but that's the way I see it... |

Let's be curious about a Zonda-V12 (will the exhaust configuration remain?) instead of moarning about Mercedes/Chrysler's absence...
