As I was watching the Discovery Channel (The Future Now), they had a piece on the new Vanwall road car. Pretty damn sweet! You can even get a 6.0 liter V12 Jag engine, 390 bhp on a 1,000 kg car! :) Check it out: http://www.vanwallcars.com/html/historic_motorsport_internatio.htm

If I'm not mistaken that was featured in Top Gear some time ago.
I personally don't like it.

Pretty cool, but I think I'd prefer a Brooke.

Indeed it was. The feature is on Youtube, but sadly pretty crappy quality - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ecUbQzKHBeA

That looks like a good way to die.

Kinda looks like the F1s of the 50's... which should be a good thing, but personally I don't like it.

Nice, but I'd prefer a Radical SR3 or SR8

That's because it's based in a 50's F1 racer. ;)
