Looks way cool inside but I don't like the front end. The painted grill and yellow headlight/foglight combo don't do it for me.

OK. Why make it a mid engine rwd, why not have the engine up front? Then it could be used in sedan racing? Also from a racers perspective, the pedal arrangment sucks balls. That whould be hella hard to heel-toe shift in that. Otherwise its cool.

first thing i noticed was the pedals, they are WAY apart
I can understand why the left it mid engine, since that is how the gt40 is, and that motor probably wouldnt fit in the front

If you've got the skills, you don't need to push in the clutch to downshift. Left foot brake, right foot throttle to match RPMs

that would be so damn loud to drive, there is no barrier between engine and driver.

Awesome. I'd kill to drive something that crazy. The yellow headlights don't do it for me though.

Quite interesting. But, it'd be even more interesting if they made it awd.
