Default Kit Car: ATTACK ( not bad!)

I bet this has killer race car potential.....


I'm not a big fan of kit cars, but this look interesting.

T, did you see the kit car on Top Gear with the motorbike engine? I think the XTR or something like that... I would love to have a car rev to 14,000

XTR... that is the Westfield... probably the main competion to the Radical... but it has lost every comparison test I have seen (evo, car, etc.)

On the Radical front there was one out at Mosport in October at a DE event I was at.... it is really impressive in person.

Here are a couple that I wouldn't mind owning:

Diasio 962 and 962R (at least it looks like a Porsche)

and the one that is supposed to be better than a Radical

Hmmm...140-150hp...~800-1000lbs...

Anybody wanna sponsor me????

The XTR had the fastest lap on the TOP GEAR tests though didnt it? and was pretty cheap...

Might as well toss in the T-rex:

http://www.go-t-rex.com/

Uses a bulletproof Kawasaki 1100cc motor (I had one in the ZRX1100 bike) ~ with MILD performance mods it put out 132rwhp. I've seen this same exact engine turboed putting down more than 300HP at the rear wheel.

The big question is...

I wonder if a Buick GNX V6 or a V8 would fit into it?
