Porsche Goes Soap Box Racing
Aug 27 2004, 2:21am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr
QuenteCafe reports about Extreme Gravity Racing, which is a downhill race for vehicles with no engines to compete in (fancy name for Soap box racing).
Major manufacturers such as Porsche, Volvo, Mazda, Bentley, Nissan and General Motors are involved in this competition. This is an interesting competition because it allows competitors to fully focus on design rather than their performance engines. My guess is that there is a weight restriction on the vehicles. More details and photos on Gizmo.com.au.
Well I still prefer a Porsche with a motor, like the Porsche Carrera GT.
