Ah good, the bus is winning. Builds like that are SO awesome, I have watched and rewatched his videos for years.
Holy shit, the wheels on that purple 964 look SO BAD. The purple's pretty rad, though.
Could you guys make more FD recap posts, including any videos available from the event? I bore of these continual POV posts, I want more car action and less people action.
It's a good thing those sausage kerbs are there. In Forza they aren't, and you can easily cut the corners to carry twice the speed.
Way better looking than the other cars. Still, I hope RMR finally lives up to their potential.
Fuchs on a bug? That's turning it around I guess.
It's not a lip spoiler, it's a lip. It does not affect the path of air or disturb the air but rather supplies cleanly split air for the underside and radiator.
Triple-exit exhaust. Bugatti blows the diffuser for some efficient downforce. It's visible in this picture:

If by new you mean it has a new shell, yes.
Anything built for practical performance. Could be one of the Japanese AWD saloons, a 911, a 'vette, whatever.
My first love, of course, was Italian exotics.
I have a hard time believing this will beat the RMR machine or that one NSX.
Not that Pike's Peak matters nearly as much any more. Pity. I'm just glad I caught it on its last real year.
Wow, people really like the C2 that much?
Those carbon disks look filthy (in a good way).
Related to that Rally DS, here's one that was recently for sale on BaT.

Wait... is it really surprising that the new Boxster S is faster than a GT-R around corners? Mid-engined and much lighter, the only advantage the AWD has is in corner exit.
Assuming that both are optimized, I would probably go for a modern turbo setup, simply because of weight and the flatter torque curve.
Those ducts are NACA shaped just for show. They will function in no way like NACA ducts were originally intended. Not to say that they won't work, they just won't be true to the original NACA design intentions.
