It’s not that the cars aren’t great–they are–but if you’re …
Damn, any more pics? This is hilariously awesome. I really hope a GRM version shows up at the challenge in the near future.

I've seen it in action. Quite possibly the most smile inducing car at the event (which is saying something), once you've gotten a taste of the exhaust note.
This makes me happy.
I wonder if they could sell it on CL as a running 99 Porsche before anyone knew the difference.
This is up there with the radial powered MR2 for making the Lemons judges look the other way on budget because the idea is so insane.
