Very nice. I like how it's fast, has a supercharger, and has all the things a race car would have (easy to access suspension tuning). The one thing they need to do is lighten up the steering effort. From the looks of it (and the sound) the steering ratio is lock to lock in just over 1.5 turns. Our FSAE car had that last year and the drivers arms were jello after only 23 minutes. If they wanted to go crazy on the car (like they already have been) they should put a gear box inline with the steering shaft. This would allow for the bruit strength road feel to be turned into a daily driven ratio for those nice road trips.

I have to say it isn't as nice looking as the saleen s7 but it's definatly more attractive than the ferrari and lambo mid engine variety.
