How cool would this be to see it come to true life (I think it is all computer generated):

Definitely a cool looking car. But, the first thing that I noticed that I didn't like was that grill. It looks way out of place on that car. Then I read this:
The regulations also encourage a specified front-end design that features both the manufacturers’ street car brand design and badge.
That seems like a strange rule to me. Nothing else about the car resembles anything you can drive on the street, but it needs to have a grill? I can understand the company badge, but a grill on one of those cars looks way out of place.

Sweet that's the new diesel car. They had a couple diesel cars that were based off the gas chassis until they had a new chassis for the diesel cars. They were fast as heck and got a lot better mileage at the 24hrs so they could go almost twice as far between pit stops.

vw, the car pictured is just a computer rendering, it's not an actual car that will compete.

Oh yeah my bad. What the heck was I thinking of then. Well a full cockpit car would be cool. It would only make sense for them to do so with the bentley having one.

There was actually one made, by Carisma and nicely done I might add. You might have ask one of our European members to track one down if you can find one. I've got one and they are nice!

I've got one new in the package. That doesn't mean I am going to reproduce it or sell it. Sorry. I am getting ready to move this weekend, so most of my junk is packed away and won't be accessible until we get settled. Sorry again.
