I said something about that car once and someone pointed out the 80:1 spectator/driver death ratio. I think air brakes should be perforated, as on the Dauntless dive bomber.

But at least the Anadol was wedge-shaped, which may not harm the aerodynamics that much.

I picked un-aero because the edges are too sharp and it's all undercariage.

Low production numbers and they get raced. Not a good combination.
It reminds me of Gurgel:

Better yet, the Gurgel Itaipu:

I think the lawn edging is just covering up the bottom edge of a huge radiator for the engine swap they did. In any case it's not going to do much for aerodynamics.

Cool truck though.
I like those mini wedge cars/buggies being posted, takes me back to a simpler era.
