The Nissan Delta Wing
 

I didn't know they were developing it with Nissan! I happen to know Ben Bowlby - his son races karts at the same track as I do. I've always said hi & chatted with him for years, never realizing he was a car designer. Didn't know it until the release of the DW.

maybe I can get a ride in it now since...y'know..I have a Nissan, too!

And here's a pic of the first Delta Wing that I took at the Ganassi race shop in Indy a few weeks ago.

I saw the videos and it looks cool, but I don't understand how it gets "substantial weight savings" just from the shape (compared to regular single seaters).

GUILT Free, that last line cracked me up. Who has guilt? aaaanyway is that the juke engine they are running in it?

Yup, Juke engine.

This is really interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing how it performs during LeMans.

I'm interested to see how this turns out, especially with such a narrow front track.

Good videos! Thanks :tiphat:

reminds me of the batmobile
