I still get a boner every time I see a 917.

Perhaps you mean lower rather than smaller? If you where to move the camera to the center of the two cars, and raise it up it would look very different. Definitely smaller than most roads cars that a 12cyl behind the driver. The 917 pushed the cockpit so far forwards they could do this. In a road car it would make people very uncomfortable(safety)
