MILLION DOLLAR BABY

but how much weight can it safe?
100 kgs will be very very much..... in my eyes

Perhaps there can be a weight comparison done, i.e.

hood old 14 kgs - carbon hood. 6 kgs
fender old 2 kgs - carbon fender 0,2 kgs


Lookin really forward to all the updates!!!!

kevmk2 he had boost issues at brands but still managed the quickest lap time

The weight comparrison on the rear spoiler alone is amazing
Plus holding one of the quarter panels you barley know its in your
hand so when you add all the panels inc roof skin & doors tailgate
bonnet plus all metal work is going to be fabricated pipe ect.
Shold be a good bit lighter with near 700 bhp

Thats interesting as i personally would have thought that Time Attack would be a real test for the car and driver, of which i am sure he would do well in, and l am sure that the other championships are a good test, but Time Attack seems to get alot of publicity and coverage

The current car is soooo fast, it kinda makes it hard to imagine how quick this one will be

What kind of weight saving you expecting andy? 200kgs? more?

Will be CRAZY
