Jesse James built the USGP ride-along car?
 Will it have a flathead V-8, whitewalls, and moon hubcaps?  Tonight on Discovery - 10 PM Eastern Jesse James: Outlaw Garage Episode: Formula 1 Racer - NEW Jesse eagerly accepts an opportunity to build a ride-a-long racer for the new Austin F1 track; delivery is jeopardized when the carbon fiber company goes off the rails.

Back to the OP. First why would anyone look that direction to have the three seater built? Then knowing that was the source who would want to go fast in it?
I guess I should go back and check out the link. Cheers Richard |

It was a 2-seater, front engine car made from a NASCAR racer that they cut up. Nothing purty to look at, but it Jesse drove it like he stole it for a few laps on the Austin track.

Too big to fail

Looks like an Ariel Atom without all the burdensome design, engineering and build quality.
