    Might look good if this was 1996, and not 2006, and their names are crap, and they aren't GTs either.

    Very interesting, though, that they appear to be planning a car powered by the RST V8 - 400bhp from 2.0-litres at 10-12,000rpm and it weighs 74 kg.

    Much better idea than a 230kg, 10-litre V12.

    You could fit two RST engines in there instead, get your 800bhp and still save 90kg
    Thanks for all the fish

    i kinda agree, this thing is bound to be another unaffordable behemoth,

    Now this MIGHT be a bit offtopic but why doesn't Drakkie have the Supporting member inscription and his username written in bold yet he does have the 200x90 avatar?

    there's a car called the Ford GT, you may have heard of it.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Please... The Corvette's transverse leafspring has almost nothing in common with the leafsprings found on other applications.

    When have the americans made a car that has both impresive performance and quality? The Corvette is not that great it performs but isn't built to last, and every good car Ford has made has been British.
