    Is a sweet ride. Our 63 mini with 1275 weighs between 650-700Kgs.
    Not sure how much you'd save with the fibreglass but very sweet all the same.

    Think the hayabusa would rev harder and be more tractable, so probably quicker.

    Must have been great to see in the flesh/metal.
    More tractable then a FI engine boasting more power though. There is a limit to the power you need in such a light weight car.

    it was weird watching it drifting out the corners for sure but bang for bucks a good kr swap car was on average only a second a lap of it and the panels on the busa golf alone could pay for that lol.Theres plenty vids off it on you-tube though and as a fun pointless car its pretty impressive engineering and performance wise,pretty sure its best quarter to date its in the 12's but its very twitchy on a circuit
