Cheers, it is a crack-up. I especially like the way they decide to remove the front spoiler by running it into the kerb. lol

It looks like they had heaps of fun doing it.

11 second F6 for $0 sounds like a bargain and a half.

Could have saved more weight by removing the steering gear, after all you are going in a straight line.

Hah! That's my old hack! The hard thing is holding the dash down when it launches ;)

I just use a 19mm ring spanner as the steering wheel. Saves a few extra grams.
