Doubtful...there's a formula that involves lift/thrust/weight/drag, and the top one flunks!

Hey, what are the funky red things coming out of the hood on the #23? mixture controls/hand throttle from the roof?

Mel, I was trying to figure that out as well ... if you look at more of the photos on the link and see what other people are doing with their cars, I am 90% sure that is the exhaust.

Yes, I said I think that is the exhaust

What are you laughing at Tim, I seem to remember a "Delta Foil" concept you had going for the Mustang. Your car would fit right in between those 2. LMAO!!!!

I'd like to see the #23 try and take turn 3 at Weatherly....

I'd like to see him even make it to weatherly. There is no way that would fit on a trailer or survive most of the roads in PA.
