Jay showed his true colors. He may collect them but he's just another hamfisted douchebag. Gawd, it was utterly painful to watch the way he treated that thing.

I don't think so, and even if he does, so what?

Why does everyone put so much thought into what Jay Leno thinks?

"We built it to be race inspired....just let me take the splitter off so we can go for a quick spin....and....oh yah.....it over heats a bit while just driving around regularly."

Seriously though I do like the car. I'm just picking on it cuz it is fun. It really was built to be a show car so I can't be too mean.

Eh the the heating issue was do to the thermostat. As for the splitter, it's no splitter it's a lip kit. It didn't extend back more then a few inches. However it is fairly low to be driving with a that lowers it more around town. The street should be fine but driveways would be another story. Even stock height with a lip can make u avoid driver ways...

First shakedown proves it's not built to be a race car but a showcar car that's racecar inspired. But the contest it was built for was never about lap times anyway. If they did do proper shakedown and test it I'm sure it would need better aero but it would be fast in the right hands.

Imo
