Very, very cool. But admittedly seems like a pretty steep price.

Less than a decent Trans-Am/GT-1 car, and almost as fast.  I think that's a pretty fair price.

I guess I was using an old circle track car as a comparison. Granted this one is supposed to go left and right from thet get-go, but otherwise it seems to me to be more or less fundamentally the same as something like this car:
