I would worry about a car built by a man who can't put his tyres on the right way round.

Looks awesome :grin: Like the way he says he doesn't race people off the lights as he doesn't want to encourage bad driving .. like you would be able to resist!

Nice build of something different, but what is it trying to be?

It doesn't look much like an F1 car in real terms and I bet it's rubbish round a track. Especially with the tyres the wrong way round as Nick said.

Visually it's different and will certainly get you attention, but who are you trying to attract? 10 year old boys? Nowhere for the nice girlies to sit...  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

If you read the article, you'd see it's a 2-seater.

You might have thought he'd give the vehicle a once over prior to having pictures taken of it, but hey.
