Obviously the front is a giveaway that it's packing a punch but that's still amazingly standard looking considering just how hot it is. I love it.

*usual safety/legal speculation on a hot turbo and a silly passer bys fingers* 8))
the grey paint and carbon bits look great together

Looks brutal. Can't weigh much with all that carbon fibroxide bodywork either  |

Is the roof rack to help aid downforce?  |

Blimes, that's a bit special! Love the function over form looks, can't imagine it getting any traction whatsoever but it'd be a lot of fun that's for sure

Cool car!
It could be a little bit undriveable, I imagine.

I like the fact it's got lightweight carbon panels as though it need to shave some weight..! I bet it's in insane ride! It'd be like strapping 1000 fireworks to a wild boar, lighting them, then jumping on it's back and slapping it's ars*!! Probably more dangerous too...

Loads of power is all well and good but the brakes cant be up to much for the size of it and there isnt much weight or tyre width to get traction down, seems abit pointless. Still cool though

What makes you think the brakes can't be up to much?
Agree about getting the power down, I'm worried about it with my mini, and that'll be running 225/235s with the drive to the rear wheels, and only 280bhp.

don't worry about getting the power down its all about learning to control the throttle like these fireblade powered carts you see at the drag strips the power weight will be immense on those things.
