Why would you make a car faster/better handling than your Halo car?

Yeah, then you'd have to explain to everybody why you've been perfecting a bad idea for 80 years

Probably got his valve cover painted and was like "well now I don't want to do it all again so... 1.6 it is!"

Judging by the components on the car, you're probably pretty close...

The only thing that "3 point rollcage" is doing on that honda is blocking road head. Then again, that entire car is a massive ****-block.

This Exocet looks kinda nice but the Miata parts look really crusty. On a similar note to the other Exocet why go thru all the trouble and expense and use rusty-rotten parts?
