How do you not love a car with no doors and is so low that you can
touch the pavement from the driver's seat (through the hole where the
door would be, if there was one)?
There's a place near me that builds replicas (Chaterham maybe?) with
Suzuki Hayabusa (stupidly fast motorcycle) engines in them. They strip
anything not needed for the track (like windscreens) and drag race
them. I think they make over 180hp in a car that weighs all of 1300 lbs
(maybe). That's a serious power to weight ratio. Thing's got to be evil
to drive.
