Default for the street?

That'd be a bumpy ride. I liked the spelling mistake claiming the springs and shocks are "steetable"

Chris:

Any chance this is a new LMP-1 prototype under the ACOs new-for-2009 rules?

Regards to all.

I haven't read the article yet but it looks really cool. I saw a program on HDNet the other day about Lamborghini's concept car. It was a behind the scenes look at how it came about from a design point of view and was very interesting. Looks like Mazda my have gone a step further in incorporating drivetrain and suspension as well.

Anyway, Chris, you should be proud to have worked on that car.
