I like the color, it just needs some clear coat.

Anybody know what's in it?

Functionally it looks good, but damn... I can't believe someone brought a car looking that bad to SEMA.

I would guess a twin turbo EZ30R. The car is obviously not done yet either.

Quote:
We worked with Sculptor CFD/aero dynamic optimization (which is the same aerodynamics software that companies used to work on the Honda F1 team and the Austin Martin team of the ALMS series). The entire vehicle was designed to demonstrate our engineering capabilities. The entire vehicle exterior was scanned and optimized for aerodynamic performance. We were able to create several hundred additional pounds of additional down force while only creating a few dozen more pounds of drag, and the entire aerodynamics package is tunable for more or less down force/drag. If you were to do something rather than sit on your duff and type you would be able to see the full PUBLIC presentation we have set up to demonstrate this and to give credit where credit is due. The vehicle has gone through several painstaking revisions over the last few months, and will continue to as we ENGINEER the vehicle, in order to continually optimize the performance of the vehicle. Over 85 test runs were performed in this process...I will be sure to include an image of some of the test results in an effort to educate you. We openly invite you to see the engineering that has gone into this vehicle thus far.

Take care,
Christian.

Is "additional additional down force" better than regular "additional downforce"?

Of course? That's what the extra 4 feet of splitter over a normal one is for.

It sounds like someone struck a nerve when they questioned their "enginerring" abilities.

Umm, yeah... unprofessional much? As much as it's tempting to talk to internet assclowns like that in public, it's really not a good idea. When you're running a business you have to be above firing off insults, in order to project a professional image.
