They call that a street car? Yeah... I can just see a movie star pulling up to a chic club in that thing and trying to pry his 18 and a half year old arm candy out of the cockpit after him. If you're going to make a Formula race car, make a Formula race car. Why bother with the taillights? No one's going to take that thing on a highway anyway.

there's been a suspension revision to this car since the top gear vid so it will clear speed bumps, they are trying to get it on the new series in Spring to take the official track record

its had a hard birth, 5th gear tested it out a couple of months ago and the car caught fire with the presenter driving (Jason Plato)! just a few days before the final round of the British Touring cars which he was leading

That car also nearly killed another tester when the front suspension blew apart.

But it is the sickest looking thing ever made.

Cool looking and i'd love to give one a go...Don't think we'll ever see a US legal version...maybe with big ass chrome bumpers and airbags?

I'm so over Top Gear. I watched them do some stupid ass skit last week where they drove a caddy/camaro and a pickup through the South where they just basically insulted Americans. Besides that there isn't an American car that can't dislike enough.
