Default Very Fast New Cars

Elfin Sports Cars never heard of them? well got to this link [url]http://www.elfin.com.au/ms8.htm and youll see some amazing cars the MS8 Streamliner and the crazy MS8 Clubman. Both cars follow the rules of minumum weight, maximum power, I would love to see these cars on a track just to see the lap results, when compared to other cars

Seems like a similar idea to the Rocket and Caterham cars.
Looks promising. Maybe the Australians really have come out
of the stone age finally. The slyling of the Clubman
is interesting and even cool but it could still use some work,
looks a little bit like a Chrysler ME 4 12. The Streamliner looks
to be a contemporary version of the legendary Bugatti Type 35. 8)

perhaps I should translate, I believe that sads meant to say, "No way, they're cool ass!"


I'd say they're interesting and a cool concept even if the styling is a little odd.

Yes Vansquish is right in his translation, I do think these cars are very sweet, I mean just look at those stats 875Kg and a 245Kw of power, as for the styling I think they were trying something new at least they didnt just do a Caterham or Westfield rip off witch you do see alot of.
