    Great video, i can see the body somewhat already in the roof lines and rear hips. It'll be stunning. So interesting to see the safety welding in the steering column and in the floor panels. Thanks again for posting

    indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine..  I happen to like both :)

    Yes and we will meet the minimum with ballast.

    Best way to do it.

    Make the car as light as possible, then place the Tungsten ballast all over the chassis to bring it up to weight requirements but where it has the most beneficial effect on balance and handling.

    F1 teams do this all the time. After a car crashes, when it's hoisted on a crane you get an opportunity to see where the bias in the car. Surprisingly, you'll notice that many of the cars are very much nose down  which is counterintuitive given the lump of a engine and transmission in the back.

    amazing shape - specially the front - must be quite a job to manufacture only the front window glass - what a frame-shape !

    The Center section, doors, and windshield are the same as P 4/5 so the glass already exists,

    My only question: why are they testing it on a go-cart track?
