I'd love to try one of those.
Just like that Griip G1 car with the Aprilia engine (allthough that's not road legal).

Would love to have one, price just a bit out of line...

BAC Mono is soo cool. Watched it closely at Goodwood. So beautiful.

I don't want to drive one: After that there is probably no way back...


Is it possible to put on the harness by yourself or must you hav help for that?

The tranny is possibly more involving than manual.. you have a clutch pedal for moving out of first gear (and also for trying to balance your take-out pizza on the hood or if you want to be very smooth). Also requires pressing both right paddle AND a button on the wheel to engage first gear from neutral. It Makes a satisfying high pressure WHAP sound with each shift as each gear engages. This ain't your grandmother's PDK.

That's how I feel this morning.. sitting in my hotel and even the hardcore redtube.com stuff isn't doing it for me.. my dopamine receptors are totally fcuked after that car.

Is it possible to put on the harness by yourself or must you hav help for that?
You have to lay it carefully to the sides, and you can do it yourself. I can't say enough though how horizontal you are in the seat.. that surprised me a lot.. very committed.

First we need to get CJ himself over to Smokies... maybe with his 911R.. Ceej?

Fantastic, congrats! Ahh I see its a test drive. Do it! Much more refined than the Radical. Very very nice. It should annihilate most anything on track once your use to the aero...
