Because it's a 458 Challenge. To save weight and easier access, the bonnet lifts completely off & is held in place by 4 pins.

Oh to be the guy who can afford to own a 458 Challenge...not just a "run of the mill" 458 for tooling around town; no, a 458 Challenge that is meant for use in only one place - a race track. I'm seriously starting to think I need to start playing the lottery....

If I was a bazillionaire, I would immediately learn to drive from the world's best...and then, build/buy my own track and basically take one of my megacars out per day and go to town around it.

I mean, how is that NOT happiness?

This. Heck, I already have a convenient candidate - one of GM's old proving grounds is currently sitting unused and in disrepair not too far from my house. Now, about that money thing....

the Mustang has gone 7.14 @ 203 with a single turbo 430ish cubic inch small block. It also runs a true 10.5" tire, stupid power for like 2000HP

the Regal is his twin brothers car. It had a 540" twin turbo easily 3000HP he runs outlaw 10.5 races, they call it a 10.5W tire, but theyre waaaay wider than 10.5" in limited tuning this fall before yanking it to go bigger it went 4.37@182 in the 1/8 it'll easily run 6.50-6.40's at well over 230mph in the 1/4
