I wonder if that hood opening/turbine is rain friendly?

never mind about the rain friendly comment, I am guessing its fine with rain since the turbine is probably out of some aircraft that sucks straight from atmospheric conditionals also...

Man! I'm glad that thing is on the other side of the country. My wife would absolutely kill me if I came home with another car.

Yeah, and it looks like it shifts like a drag car. Probably give you whiplash. But it sounds soooooo cool!! I would so piss my neighbors off more than I do now. I would have to fire it up at least once a day just to hear it whine.

I think it was on ebay a year or so ago, and someone posted a link then. I don't remember what it sold for, but I seem to remember it was a lot cheaper last time. Sure is cool though.
