This gentleman in Portland, OR is finishing up an amazing piece of engineering – the DP1 racecar. Specifications are nothing short of astounding: 2.8L Hayabusa-derived V8 producing 375hp @10,000 RPM, structural downforce-producing carbon-fiber chassis, 170+mph top speed, 850lb total weight, and Quaife AWD with inboard brakes. Needless to say, this thing is wild. Projected cost is $125,000. Check out his videos or (for you engineering-types) the design/build [b]logs while I pick my jaw up off the floor.
