^ Almost correct. The MC12 Corsa is a "track day special" of the MC12 GT1 racer. It's kind of comparable to the Ferrari FXX.
And how EDO managed to get the car road legal is a question for me as well...

Looks like this car has no handbrake, designed to drive fast

StMoritzer, do you have more information on what EDO did to the car? For example, did they do anything to the engine? I did notice they changed the exhaust from two to four pipes...

what I know is, that he has Capristo exhaust and they must have done something on the engine, since 800hp is the number this car has

sorry, no details :bah:

^ The MC12 Corsa has 755hp, so a bit less than the FXX.

I think that 800hp was the power the original MC12 Corsa had - same as the FXX. Without the technical regulations of the FIA, which cuts down the power to 600hp... these engines are well over 700hp as far as I know.
A crew member told me, that this EDO Corsa does have 800hp, and the streetversion MC12XX has ~750hp (on the EDO homepgae, the state ~800hp for the street-version however ).

LOL.. all that money and you still need a rock to keep it from rolling away when parked.

I'm guessing you can't just keep it in gear when you park?
