I'm just glad that Caterham has made a car that looks good, not geeky and awkward.

Does it really matter when all theyre seeing is your taillights in the distance?

Nateb123 12-30-2008 07:41 PM

It does when they look as bad as the old Caterhams. Besides, wouldn't some consideration to aerodynamics help the car's performance?

The light weight and top-rate componentry of the Seven resulted in a racetrack agility very little else could come close to - to the point where it was designated "too fast to race" as early as the 1970s and has since been blacklisted by the FIA, the Nurburgring 24-hour, and most other international production sportscar race series.

Anything more than a bubble around the driver would be too much weight lol

My uncle built a Lotus Super7 just like back in the day. I believe it was 1200 #s, but with 450rwhp. Blow through 4 cyl..
