We can do some things here you wouldn't believe.

Meanwhile here in "Straya" I can technically be given a fine of a few hundred dollars because I have a pod filter on my car....

Or can you actually drive something like this on the road there?
Think of it as an alternative to an Exocet. It should be a fun "street" car. I don't know if it happens to fit into any racing sanctions other than HDPE's, but I know it'll fit somewhere in mod classes of autocross which is my primary racing outlet.

I like a lot what I see! The only thing I may change is the main hoop bracing; would make much more sense to move the node of the V-shaped brace at the bottom of the side tubes where it meets the rails. I may also move the main tubes outwards towards the middle of the hoop bends.

Trying to make space in the shop this weekend so I combined the rollerskate to the chassis. I should have done this a long time ago.
