The part I like is that the fit and finish are superior to, for instance, Aerocivic.

It's now powered by a specially modified 2.5 litre, 5-cylinder engine capable of 992bhp.
It achieved 7 land-speed records at Elvington Racetrack in June 2021, and is prepped for the June 17th 200mph record attempt..

Built in 1982, this is an example of excellent fit and finish.
Yes it's an open wheel car but [half] the radius arms, the shock absorbers and the steering drag link are all buried inside the bodywork.

They don't provide any specific aero information, when they are clearly in possession of it, requiring us all to do all the reverse-engineering in order to parse out what it is that they actually accomplished.
