I caught the last hour of the ROLEX' 24-Hours of Daytona,Sunday.The DPi-Class was won by the Taylor Racing', Cadillac-powered prototype,with driver Kamui Kobayashi bringing the car across the finish line for it's 3rd-in -a-row victory. It set a new,number of lapse per race record.
At the core of the car,lies a driver compartment which suspiciously resembles the 2013,Cambridge University Eco Racer (CUER) solar racer,sans flattened-tail PV array, tadpole.
The irony is that,Mark Reuss,President of General Motors was beaming after the win,for a car of which its bulbous nose,and teardrop-tapered body driver compartment embodies the exact kind of technology General Motors has suppressed since 1926;with its Paris dressmakers.A laugh out loud moment.
