Yamaha ox99-11.

Video of the engine being started and revved:


I remember the OX99 being unveiled. Always thought it a slightly odd thing to look at but also rather interesting. Would love to know how effective the aero was - it had an exhaust blown diffuser of sorts ((although it's very steep so I wonder how much use it would have been) and the front wing over the nose reminds one of the XJR-14 although as it has bodywork below it that appears to follow the shape of the wing, I'd be surprised if it was very effective.

Cheesy music doesn't last too long in this video:

Definitely reminiscent of the F1 from the rear

I reckon it could've become a 3 seater in the same vein as the F1. Quick read suggests Yamaha wanted a passenger seat beside the driver... Shame it didn't make it to the numbers they planned.

Wasted far too much of my life waiting for the driver to give it the beans.
