If you want to know just how crazy I am: So being a more than a little nuts I decided to build a secondary dream car to the GT40, and set out to build a kind of hybrid between the 1965 Indy winning Lotus 38, a formula 5000, and well a lot of F1 cars from the era that have one or another engineering solutions that I like.
