In this case the qu estion is “how do I get rid of all these tires?”

I had this autoplay while watching mightycarmods the other day. I enjoyed how the car was overheating like mad from doing some donuts. I think they need to rethink their cooling solution of "I figure it will get some air through there". You could definitely hear from the engine note how the overheating was killing some power. Not that it needed the power, it was obviously too much to be useful to begin with lol. I still enjoy that this is a thing, I'd just like the build to be even remotely usable. But that's probably another $20k to get in that ballpark.

That’s stupid.
I love it

They would need to re-engineer the whole front end, and maybe the rear end. Like, Im thinking remote radiator in the trunk. Or maybe even take the hood and fenders off, and replace them with raradiators. Engines at that power level need LOTS of cooling to run consistently and reliably.
I saw a Ford display at PVGP about the new Mustang GT500. Apparently at full tilt the radiators are dissipating 230 KW of waste heat. Thats the equivalent of 300 HP.

It’s a good representation of how more power isn’t always a good thing. That car would be more fun with 400 less horse power

Sh it looks like what would happen if a Miata was on the wrong end of a Facehugger from Alien.

Depends on your idea of fun...
But you're absolutely right. Its totally unusable as a car.
