That is some straight up SICKNESS! Although I'm still on the fence about the front end design. However, it does look very aerodynamic and functional, so that's what it's all about.
Since the motor is offset, what is going to occupy the free space?

I dont think so. I mean they have already made 800whp on the current setup. Maybe though.
I got a sneak peak of the drivetrain
....thats what I was referring to.

We engineered that nose to be very functional and efficient for our 5 laps on track. But since we are a SCION Racing team we have opted to tame the nose back just a little to keep the scion look there. It still is on the very wild side but we do compete in the unlimited class where rules are open. The Time Attack Rules are so great because they are so open on aerodynamics and the sport is in its infancy so you can expand your mind on lots of ideas. I went out to spectate at the redline event this weekend at Buttonwillow and from being apart of the time attack scene since early 06. The sport is growing bigger and bigger every year. The turnout was great and we all see a big future in the time attack arena. We are very excited to get this tC out on track and mixing it up with all the RWD & AWD cars.
