NASCAR TRD V8 (no caps lock) to be precise, and the purpose is to go sideways.

I suspect that this LFA was a testcar, prototype or has been crashed. Someone suggest a GT86 with the V10.

I guess so, it's NASCAR after all. Insert joke about outdated tech here.

In the mind of an enthusiasts though, " Bentley is sophisticated, leaders of engineering beacuse owned by VW, and innovators of speed and luxury...un like American garbage with pushrod engines and plastic interiors" lol enthusiasts :]

Since when is VW a leader in engineering? They never were. Honestly, they build solid cars, but that's it. They are the Toyota of Germany.

Like seriously, but now that V10 better be swapped in something retarded.
