Do it! I've been working with Fran for my dad's GT40, and he builds some great cars!

Now that looks like a fun ride. I wonder if that's a better power/weight ratio than Jeff Schwartz's Ultima.

I think the Ultima is 2210 lbs. His twin turbo motor 1003 hp......2.20

That's a wicked little car. 680RWP from 1.8 liters. No wonder he said it breaks a lot and they found metal at the bottom of the engine before their first attempted film session. When it's working though, my goodness I bet it's crazy fun to drive. Great video. Thanks for sharing Greg. :thumbsup:

Oh well, I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

Rear ended by a Porsche? Hmmm......

That much power to weight is crazy insane and it's little wonder it's not crash more!

Wouldn't take me more than 100 feet to turn it into a whirlybird!:woot:
