Great car and extremely fast on the track...thanks for posting the vid. Hated the music also...why do people mix such crappy music onto these vids? Only thing worse would have been the" Yo- Yo shoot my bitch" variety you hear on a lot of car vids....rant over..

The owner of Vortex Superchargers purchased this car. The asking price and the price it exchanged hands for are miles apart. From what I understand, the new owner is a good guy that enjoys his Porsches water cooled or air cooled.

I think the idea is to evauate air under the nose to create some from down force like louvers do on prototype cars.
They may work. I don't know.
Overall I hate the look of the car. Just not my tastes. However I do respect that it was created for the purpose of being fast not for being "pretty". So I will refrain from ripping it apart since it is quite fast.

The only thing not to my tastes are the cut-outs behind the front tires. Otherwise, rock on.
+eleventy bajillion on the comments about the music. The engine alone is music enough thank you very much. Let us hear it for chrissakes.

Music is a matter of taste, nothing more. Why whine about it so much? It's the creation of the video editor and I think he's not going to make the video one more time just to please all those that didn't like the soundtrack.
I'm not too keen about this kind of music either but it really can't be worse than country-music is it?
