They are not purpose built race cars, and each is individually owned by the owner that provided the chassis, so there's no reason to trash a new $400k car in wheel to wheel racing.

And Magnus has been a licensed Cup racer with the POC for probably about 15 years. He does know how to drive and race, but occasionally does have his bad moments. But who of us hasn't?
Yes on both accounts. I been out a couple of times out on drives with Magnus. He an ex-racer so he's been there done that in building race cars. He super nice humble fellow, sad to hear all this bashing

Hell my old college roommate works at singer and meet up with he and rob at his facility for a visit last year Yes their cars have been tracked extensively. If people don't know this before nitpicking and spewing criticism than that's their ignorance.

I'm not sure why all this matters? They aren't race cars. I have a full blown race car with a sequential straight cut box... I can tell you it's the last thing I would want to drive on the streets.
