I especially like this designs shape :
But then you have stuff like this that makes you scratch your head and think " What did they do
that for ?" ( the car is driving backwards aerodynamically :
So do they run
REAL cars at this event ? Here is an example of a "car" for this race - which i seem to remember runs at less than 40 mph. This isn't much more than a tissue paper covered motorized skateboard ( when compared to an everyday car - not knocking the genius designers.I really admire these guys ):
I see this as nothing more than Shell trying to gain P.R. as being eco-friendly.
They are after all an oil company.
I recognize the car as the PACII car. The above design is the most streamlined "car" in the world . I just have to wonder how a human fits inside of this thing .... and how do they breathe ?.
