    And we digress over the look of the F56.....the rear of this looks like a Venus Flytrap

    Yeah, I thought the same, but when someone is trying to test in private I guess you take whatever you can get.

    I wonder whether the spy video shook this one loose.

    MSR should have a great package this year for TUDOR. They are going this route so that they can run LeMans.

    Can't wait to see that on track. The design is interesting, but to my aged eyes it's too busy. There seems to be no purity of design. I know aero dynamics causes this. Guess I'm from a simpler time. Once they add an M7 wing it will be much cooler. :wink:

    Yes it does & sometimes it ends up being beautiful & sometimes it ends up a mess that works very well. I'm certain it will look better on the track with numbers & sponsors logos on it.

    I was confused at first by how thick those doors look but I suppose it has to do with the shape of the car with the center/cabin section narrowing toward the back. Moving that much material out of the way should make ingress/egress easier than it is in a lot of supercars.
