Wow. It looks like CGI.. That is just cool. The VW that broke the Pikes Peak record didn't look amazing like that little feller did.

(But I assume this thing has just about enough juice and no more to beat the Goodwood record.)

This car needs to work on the rear wing some more. Obviously it’s made to swivel, but it didn’t work right.

Why do you say it didn’t work right?

OK, maybe I should have said, I don’t think it worked right. As he was driving, the back end was fish tailing all over the track. It didn’t look like it had much down force.

The car (Czinger 21c) was fresh from Hockenheim track. The trans broke there on a hot lap and had to be cobbled together to get in a decent couple of runs at Goodwood. (That is not my son driving)
