    Hope you never get in a wreck. These cars are dangerous from the get go, now you’ve got a coffin on wheels. I guess it’s safer than a motorcycle. Other than that, very nice work

    It's so refreshing to see thinking like this, where car performance enhancements are concerned. Instead of more horsepower, more mind-power. Excellent! :)

    This guy is the great nephew of the man who developed and manufactured parts for the Rolls Royce Merlin engine. It's in the genes. His great uncle was the owner of The King Aircraft Corporation.

    Would have been nice to hear the before and after weight. The driver too can shed some pounds easily enough by removing: 1 kidney, 1 and a half lungs, 1 arm, one eye, every other tooth, enema before drive, etc...

    I am excited to see this drive. Otherwise there is no point. If it can't perform like a normal Porsche what is the point? Anyone can make one lighter if there is no test at the end.

      You’re drastically missing the point of this car. Just anyone can’t do this, and the fact that you think anyone can just shows how little you understand how much time, effort, and motivation that this required to accomplish something like this. It is absolutely impressive to see this be done. This isn’t top gear, it’s not going to be a mistreated car. It’s fine art on 4 wheels

      @@Disco_Potato_69 Lol. Yep. I can't have an opinion different than yours, otherwise I am wrong. Lol. If it cannot drive like a normal car, you tell me why it matters? Why not just remove the wheels and engine? Boom! Weight savings!

      @@eriklarson9137 I never said that thought process is wrong. Yes it’s very impractical. You are very correct in you opinion. However you’re missing the point of this mans vision. It’s got nothing to do with practicality and everything to do with impracticality. How close can he get to the (as light as possible/ruined car line) 🤙 you’re free to your own opinion. But you’re opinion is stubborn and not of the understanding kind.
