Ha ha, not enough roll bar in the world for me. Looks like he's driving his own coffin. I have visions of meeting a wall at uber-high speed like bug-on-windshield.

Sure is wicked fast though.

I couldn't imagine crashing in that thing. There's no way there's any energy absorption built into it. You crash = you die.

Probably not much worse than any other go-kart, but seems worse because it's enclosed.

Driving it around full-sized cars probably seems like driving an Elise around school busses.

Love it but it is pricey to say the least.

It'll be interesting to see one in person. From some angles, it's tiny. From others, it looks as big as a Miata.

That looks really fun. I agree with other's though, a full roll cage would be a must.
