Apparently the transmissions on these things were like glass. If you launched off-the-line and let the wheels spin at all you'd destroy the transmission. I believe it was Top Gear (or some automotive show) that did a segment on this.
Cool looking cars but in no way worth it. There's a guy here in town who has a red one.
Me personally, I prefer the Diablo!
These are go fast top speed cars , not pull the front wheels as you boil the hides cars . I'm amazed how I love just about every car built , and they are totally different !
