I wish I could share some of my renderings but that would get me in a little trouble right now.
I will share this though.

On the left side, click the black carbon LM race car looking thing.
Not too bad for a little home project, just building and designing a complete race car from the ground up. TONS of 3d renderings, it's basically engineer porn

haha nice, why cant you show some of the renderings? I see your using solid works on this stuff. Where did you learn solid works? and what do you do for work that involves it now?
by the way... killer car... Id love to do something like this when i find the time to actually use on it. just finishing school and starting my career isnt the best time probably... hopefully in the future ill have some more free time.
But thats really cool, I like the backbone type frame, and the engine offset to the one side. AWD, Chain drive... very cool.

first off is that M5 yours? Did you get to drive the Atom or was that someone else? And if you or your company gets to do all this cool stuff. Where do I sign up?

My main job is commercial engineering, but I also do contract work for some local aftermarket automotive companies. It sounds fun but 85% of what I work on is rather dull, then again everyonce in a while I do get a cool project to work on.
Yeah that car is going to be off the hook, especially when he gets the V8 in there and it's making 600hp all motor. In an awd car that weighs nothing, it will flat haul the mail.

What you don't see is the $80k he has sunk into that car thus far.
