Don't you guys know? That's all the rage in Bangledesh, Vermont, and parts of New Jersey. They have specially trained Trunkmonkeys that hop out and drag their feet to help stop your car. They are much more effective than front calipers. I'll post some numbers in the near future on stopping distances.

Haha, i remember this car...the PR2000 prototype car. They had a bunch of weird pictures with really funky things wrong with them.

The next biggest problem in this picture, besides the lack of front brake calipers, is the steering wheel. If you look, you will notice the small yellow stripe on it. The yellow stripe is supposed to be at 12:00 o-clock, to help the driver orient the wheel, REALLY handy when your in mid drift on gravel, and your steering feed back is very slim.

Now if you will notice its pointing over tword the left, meaning that the wheels should be turned left, and with the close ratio steering of the WR Car the wheel should be noticable cocked sideways, and they are not.

Dont really know what else is technically "wrong" with the picture.

Oh my bad, you're right. Don't know what I was thinking, but when I glanced at the picture the first time I thought they were different for some reason.

Something is way wrong with that pic...either it's totally photochopped or the picture was taken with a fisheye lens or something.



The wheels are whack! Crooked! Yeah and with such nice rotors you'd expect to see some beefy calipers too.

Garface, the crooked toe ont he wheels is becuase of the fact the picture was taken at close up, with a wide angle lens...it give it a sort of warped fish eye look. And the outer edges of the picture sort of "turn up". So it it gives the optical illusion of the toe being all whacked. If you notice the front looks toed in, and the rear toed out.

So now you know.

Besides the fact that it's life sized. The wheels look really crooked. Is that what too much toe would be?

Is it just me, or are there no lug nuts on those wheels? (probably so they could get them off quickly to replace brake calipers)

Hey Supermarkus, dont be jealous of New Jersey. Just because your jealous doesnt mean you have to bang on NJ. Maybe some day you'll be lucky enough to visit the promise land, home of Rallispec. And if you dont like Jersey, careful how you talk about us. You could take a trip to the pinebarrens and see NJ up close. How you do'n?

You live in a pretty cool state thou, do they still hang people for the death sent?
