He says the steering is heavy at low speed, and its for entry rally racers...do they know rallys use pavement sometimes? And I dont think my size could fit in it lol.

meh.. it's the principal of the thing and not about aesthetics. It's just cool to see automakers understanding. small, light, tossable vehicles with huge power/weight ratios are the future if our hobby hopes to continue.

On top of that, they're super fun.

i'm just excited about the possibilities.

Im not saying that I like the direction of things to come, but i will say that this statement is borderline prophesy.

Uh... the curb weight on them is like 2k.. there's lots of track and road race cars that weigh in around that.
