Any figures or dimensions on the car? It looks like its fairly small in comparison, but looks can be decieving. At least theyre going with something special, i was kinda pissed when Matthew Thomas said he wanted a 6.8l OHV V8 in his JOSS

Havn't been able to find any specs sheets yet unfortuneately.

Denny Hulme had his biggest successes with huge OHV V8 engined cars.

why does this small pic look like it has rear wheel steering?

Dino Scuderia 03-23-2005 08:35 AM

It doesn't look like a supercar, more like a highschool design project.
