I love the pics, but I hate myself for being so **** and creating questions when I spot things that are different. Like why the bumper on the second pic is made of more sections than any others?

Honestly, if you were to make that driveable, it would be one of the quickest cars in history. 430hp and 900 lbs...

Actually it isn't, the metal is the same, it just has the side piece installed that makes it look that way because it is ribbed

Yup! It would need some rears at least this wide! Ha ha. I'd drive it!

I've honestly been considering taking on a project like that. Just a tube structure like the Ariel Atom. If my new business picks up I will consider making an LS3 or ls7 based go-kart that's road legal.

Thanks for the PICS. Always great seeing the assembly line pics!

Was there in 2008. Need to get back there again sometime soon.

Tours are always fun, and there is enough other stuff to do in the general area to help keep my wife happy as well. She gladly puts up with my "day at the theme park" as we usually spend 2 -3 days in the area doing that and other things when we can get there.
