Very Cool. Thanks for sharing. Any buzz down there about the Paris to Dakar replacement rally "Dakar"?

That rear wing is way the bleep up there and really angled down. I wonder how the car turns-in with all that force on the rear end?...

Yeah, I'm sure it's balanced. The Cup S front end is a lot more serious than a regular Cup. I believe the press release stated that the front downforce is even adjustable. I'd love to see aerodynamic technical specifications.
