Nope. There's already a variety of track cars in this weight class, including road legal ones. Check out Palatov motorsports for example. This compact but high performance format is indeed very practical and in fact in very high demand, at least for race car crap. If you can spend the same amount of money as you would on a track built 911 for something considerably higher performance, a lot of people will.
- semi-extrinsic 4y agoSure you can get very lightweight two seater road legal track cars. You can even slap an Exocet kit on an MX-5 and get that for very cheap. But you said "Nissan Leaf". A five-seater car that can fit a full baby stroller plus a bit of luggage in the trunk. That is fully incompatible with being a lightweight track car.
- jasonwatkinspdx 4y agoCan you not understand I was being figurative vs so literal? This behavior is so common and so very tiresome here. Read charitably.
- semi-extrinsic 4y agoI'm sorry, but then I don't understand the point of the original comment. As we agree, you can already buy a lightweight two-seater track car with very good performance for quite cheap. I understood the point of your original comment to be that with active aero devices we could now have something far more practical, like a Nissan Leaf, but still having very good track performance. If that was not the point, then what is the new thing you think is going to be enabled by active aero?
