Introducing a NEW series on /DRIVE, aimed at educating you to build a faster, better, more reliable car:  /ENGINEERED. We want to empower our fellow enthusiasts to know more, and do more, by learning from some of the best engineers in the game. 

Heat management is the most overlooked problem in modified cars. Adding power or braking is easy, it's keeping those systems working that's hard. Betim Berisha, founder of BBI Autosport and one of the primary engineers on Jeff Zwart's Pikes Peak car, explains why few people think about it, and why they have to.

 I'm a endurance race car technician and a crew guy. I've worked on a lot of endurance race cars. What are some of the biggest challenges when it comes to building endurance race cars?

 The heat is the limit of everything. Every time we design something or take on a challenge, it is literally identifying the limits which start at heat and then we work our way backwards.

 Make a radiator tilt forward, make the hood look nice and airflow is better, less drag, more frontal down force, so it's all of it's trying to get rid of heat.

 increase surface area by two times by Nano sized aluminum particles on heat exchangers, increasing thermal efficiency by pulling heat out of the ambient environment.

 cooling systems are still not as efficient as endurance race cars because our peak power output is so high. How can we improve the cooling system efficiency of our endurance race cars?
