Had to use my spy cam. Apologies for the poor quality.

The car is badged with a Ferrari engine but I found out it's actually powered by Mini Cooper. Can someone care to explain the rear wing concept on this car?

He-he... is D.C. doing a road test or have they gave him a winter job?

I've seen that car about a year or two ago... can it be that they've just now taken them to Australia?

So, why the conspiracy that the downwash wing idea came from Ferrari - I DON'T FINK SO......................

it's to aid cornering, to generate side forces. All you do is spin the cylinder in a specific direction... lol

I'm just joking, but acutally, you could make it work.

That car comes to my school once in a while. Red Bull also came to the Mini Baja 2005 competition in Arizona.
