It's a small niche for a reason (and that reason is not soley because of price). I'm generally a fan of performance vehicles, but this thing goes beyond normal reasoning for one of several reasons. The biggest of these is that this contraption is not designed to be used at WOT. One would seemingly have to bolt on a wheely bar AT LEAST to keep it from flipping stright over. I challenge you to name another "commercially marketed" vehicle that is not designed to be used at WOT. It's handling is not mentioned here in the context of performance but from a safety standpoint.
At what point does this whole process become absurd? On a brighter note, it's likely to get better gas mileage than the viper it was pilfered from.
