This is a spectacular car...I remember it at Riverside testing for the CanAm and it was the FIRST CAR ever to go from exit of turn 9 through turns 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 flat out with no lift with John Morton driving. Two weeks prior Alan Jones was at Riverside testing his Saudi F1 car and it could not do the same feat, maybe it was faster, but it could not go flat out through those turns!

Wow so it went out of the banked corner full power flat out until the end of the esses? That’s insane I never heard of a car being capable of that on the glorious Riverside track! It’s a shame corrupt greedy local politicians demolished this important part of American cultural history to build something useless as a mall and parking spaces… Property developers are the scum of the earth! The USA are such a huge country, they could’ve saved this legendary circuit and build the mall a few miles away..

Way back in the 80s, I was into 1:12 scale electric RC car racing. We all ran clear Lexan bodies on our chassis, most of them being CanAm bodies because they had the best aerodynamics. My favorite was the Frisbee body. It was the coolest looking!

Okay...neat car, no doubt. But...."what this car did to the other cars at Willow"....come on! It's struggling to pass glorified street sedans. Turning lap times 10 seconds slower than a Club Formula Ford and even slower than a Sport Renault. Neat, yes. Fast, no.
