That's cool all right, but if we're talking fantasy cars I want to go really old school: http://allardj2x.com/

Hoohoo, a beast by any other name! We had one in the club; there seemed to be only one way to drive it: sideways...

[CtrlAltDefeat]

wow... nice. I wish we had some roads like that around here... altho, the long drop down you would get with one bad misapplication of throttle would give me pause. :eek:

I never realized that a Lotus was THAT amazing, even given the fact that he has modified it extensively.

I know that road very well and I could not possibly imagine how on earth he took some of those curves that fast. I have driven on it with a Miata a few times and I wouldn't dare pass the 40mph mark in the bends. He was easily doing 55....just, wow.

[why?]

Lotus' are in another league when compared to miata's, or almost anything else.

700hp, that is truly nuts. Hypercar is definitely the word for it.

Wow, I love the Lotus, if I had the money there would be a Lotus in my garage
for sure.
That one is insane....they are so light and this one with 700 hp? It would take
a month of driving it every day to get used to the power-to-weight combination.
If I didn't crash it first!!
