It really matters what the body and the frame are made of, as far as weight is concerned.

Trans-Am would draw more simply as a name. evoking the concept of US Production based racing on a big stage, and remember Trans-Am was on the Big stage along side NASCAR before the Frances out spent Trans-Am to push them off the stage. American Racing and Automotive identity has suffered for it as a result. It doesn’t…
I meant the real Trans-Am, the production based road course racing series as in the 1960s and 70s, with some pretty open racing specs.
Just bring back Trans-Am as a proper road course racing series. You can use the in-field road courses and a lot fo ovals on top of eixsting road course tracks around the US as venues.
Cost analyses like that are just straight dollar for dollar inflation conversions but do not take into account what it would cost to build THAT car today. a 2000 Cobra R would not fetch nearly $81K today. The car would fetch today about the same $55K it did in 2000.
They just kept getting bigger, more powerful, and worst of all more expensive.
I dig the Corvette C7R the Panoz Esperante GTR, and I’m up in the air about and the Ferrari 488 GT3 (Sorry if the name is off. I’m not a big Ferrari fan.. “Shock and awe”.). Modern LMPs are just a visual mess and I really don’t like looking at them. I know they are awesome, but that lack that beauty of function over…
Someone who and afford a $2.1M car can afford to drive it as his “daily” although it more than likely his weekend toy or one of them. Yes, I know the tires are at least $10,000 a set every 2500 miles. and a Powerboat gets better gas mileage.
That is what you can literally call “rubbernecking”.
Just add the sounds of bones breaking and “Flawless Victory”.
I can see the Rotary being used as the on-board generator while the RX Vision is propelled by electric motors. Use a relatively small battery pack for “Zero lag” power, to cover the span of time the Generator needs to spool up. and there you go.
Then they pull the wraps and...
Its a major deflation moment for me.
I really want to say something Inflammatory here. But I really have no desire to deal with the fallout. Not fear. Just general exhaustion for that sort of thing.
The one that was promised, never was, should have been, would have saved the Dart. Just another show that Chrysler, now FCA, has no strong leadership.
But when you OD on drugs you are really killing only yourself. Fully automatic weapons, machine guns or modded semi-auto rifles, really exist to do as much damge as possible. Point them at some people and... you really don’t need to have that explained to you.
Try looking up”Lifetime environmental impact of electric vehicle (or car)“. You can expand it to include “Internal Combustion Vehcile”. I find “ICE” does not get that many relevant hits.
Their is “like” and “sold my soul to them”. I like them but I have not “sold my soul to them or the cause of them”. There are more effective ways to positively aid the environment that attacking ICE-Vs. Ways such as actually directly engaging Power producers, and their power plants, to make powering our home,…
Let me guess because Putin says it it must be false, wrong, or otherwise some form of Russo-communist propaganda.
OMG... Someone actually gave a relevant citation. No. Seriously, Thank you for NOT being some [dolt] whose only retort is essentially “Nuh-uh”.
