Yea those little things are sweet. They did a piece about them on Top Gear a while back. The guy that did the piece said that they accelerated and cornered unlike anything else he'd ever felt, bar none. That's pretty impressive coming from a guy who's driven probably every exotic sports car on earth.

456 kilos is like 1000 pounds. I can't imagine how cool it would be to rip it up with four wheels and only 1000 lbs.
I want one of these when I grow up.________________

The race car version would be sick to have. It kinda looks like a indy car. But it would probly be way to hard to get one over here.

I meant to say it was second fastest on the track to the enzo. by less than 1 second.
Not too shabby for a car at less than 1/10th the price.Tony Langlois

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?
