the first thing i look at re a road race car is total weight and then where the weight is located. i give this car an "A". look where the engine is! and of course look where 1750 degrees of exhaust gas are. no need for a heater. the driver ought to be wearing a heatshield suit. is it my imagination or does the driver look a bit apprehensive? . a pretty neat car. looks like they got the suspension right... double front A arms etc. plenty of rubber too. pretty slick car.
drooling to drive it,

Damn... seeing cars like that makes me wish I could only figure out how to drop 500 pounds off my car...

Right now I have

No A/C system (still have heater and A/C evaporator)
No P/S system
Straight exhaust - no cats
Light flywheel
Single turbo
4 point roll bar (adds about +70 lbs)

I wonder where I can get my car weighed accurately? A drag strip I guess.




Very neat car!

Wow.

I've seen a R100 with that much engine setback but it was converted to LHD.

Yea it wouldve been better if it was lhd with the exhaust and all. And as for the shifter most likely its sequencial and not an h pattern.
