Hey, ever thought about fitting a micro‑nuclear reactor into a race car? Imagine insane power with zero emissions—speed meets clean energy, right?

Sounds cool in theory, but the heat sink on a racetrack would be a nightmare, and safety protocols would put a brake on the whole thing. Plus the added weight would kill any lap record you were chasing.

Yeah, but rules are just speed limits for the weak. We’ll shave that heat sink off, slip a couple of kilos into the chassis, and trust the engineering to keep us alive. If they want to put a brake on that, they’ll just be watching me break the record anyway.

Nice idea, but if you shave the heat sink off you’ll just have a hot box that burns the car and everyone inside. Engineering isn’t about shortcuts—heat has to be managed, and a race car doesn’t have the luxury of a huge radiative surface. Maybe focus on the power density first, then worry about packaging.

You're right, the heat's a beast. But power density? That's where we win. We'll crank the engines, keep the core compact, and trust the aerodynamics to slice through the air like a knife. If the race circuit starts to overheat, we just push harder—no time for safety protocols when there's a record to smash.

Sounds like a recipe for a spectacular firecracker, not a record. A compact core needs proper cooling, not a speed‑throttle that turns the whole track into a forge. If you’re going to ignore safety, at least make sure the car can still turn the corner.
