They're alright. To me, just an open wheel race car. Same concept as a Caterham or the open wheel Lambo go cart thingy. Guys show up w/ 'em on road courses acting like it's their driving skill & not the open wheel go kart that's making 'em go around the track quiclkly. Fun to drive, but, different class of vehicle all together.

That car with traction would give 1000hp cars the business.

But then again its literally a go kart with 650hp so its a death trap.

That looks incredibly scary under boost. No point in having a car that's uncontrollable.

I still want a ride in it though.
