I love the personalized plate "60 IN 3"

You're down 40-50 thousand instead of hundreds of thousands , plus you can salvage it and go build another

fixed. I can think of worse ways to go, and as somebody else said, its still better than a crotch rocket. Besides, your speculation is based off conjecture from other typical kit cars rather than actual test results of this particular kit car.

I've been hoping to see it in the parking lot again to get better pics or find out who owns it. The car definitely made me do a triple take when I saw it. Its height is crazy low to the ground and I want to hear that exhaust setup. If it belongs to an employee here I'm sure I'll see it again at the annual employee car show in the summer.
