i would LOVE to just be taken out in one of these, supercharged type r engine will be sooo good power come in really smooth! have to for a car that light with 300 hp! must be bonkers!
i think going out in something like thats puts f1 cars into perspective! we would all think atom is totally bonkers, just imagine wot f1 car is like to drive on the edge all the time also!

Been out in a charged ctr and thought that was fast. Something with half the weight and exposed to the elements must be insane 
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

karl was having some problems at the hillclimb today, hes just geting used to it but he says because there is so much power its hard to get a nice clean line then commit without it throwing the back end out.
this was on slicks aswell, not the Yokos.
