Good luck getting this car in production and meeting FMVSS and CARB regulations, especially in 2012 when they finally produce a real car. It is one thing to build a one-off prototype but a whole different thing to build real customer cars that are not sold as a kit or rolling chassis.

As the car sits in its photos it does not meet FMVSS for lighting, 2.5 mph bumper crash protection, occupant safety (air bags, seat sensors, side crash, and probably not rollover), does not have ABS or roll stability control. As for CARB how are they getting 800 hp through side pipes with cat converters and meeting emission standards.

One of the biggest things that killed the Ford GT program was the need for occupant sensors in the seats for the air bags, which would have been multi millions to develop, along with the radical changes needed to the bumpers to pass 2.5 mph crash (would have killed the look of the car). If Ford couldn't make this work in 2006 with virtually unlimited resources what makes these guys think they can do it on a shoe-string budget with limited resources??

And all of this above doesn't even factor in the "Carroll Factor"......when he files a cease and desist order and ties them up in court for 24 months at the minimum, whether he could win or not.

I give them 9-12 months of taking a few orders, never delivering a car, and quietly slipping away.
