Been watching it too. I'm a huge fan of endurance car racing. Just love the onboard cam at night.

Talk about passing cars like they were sitting still!

What do you guys think about this car? Too radical? Perhaps I'm too much of a traditionalist (oldfashioned), but I find it difficult to feel any love for this car.

Looks like the Batmobile as it would appear at the end of an old Kung-Fu movie.

The video of the crash reminded me of when Top Gear reviewed the Reliant Robin.

it looks more like the Bat-Missile from the Tim Burton 90's version. the Panoz Esperante GTR-1 is the true alms batmobile.
