Yes indeedy! But a 2-litre engine using today's tech and only pushing out 175BHP? Guess it's for reliability but I reckon there's more in it than that!!  :evil:

Do pay attention, children, check the options:

OPTIONAL EXTRAS

    Power upgrade
    Race tuning

They already do two race series with the car in different tunes.
