    Perhaps I'm getting old, but I don't understand this car. Can a 3 ton car be competitive on the track? Is there a class for vehicles this heavy?

    Next -- 30 gauges? Are there actually that many things to monitor? Is the car slow enough that you have time to look at all of them in 1/4 mile?

    Or is this whole car made just to look impressive?

    I just noticed it has no roll cage/bar. I don't think they'd let it on a track.

    As I said, I don't understand it.
