Shit like this is what causes accidents. 78% of the time it's not the idiot breaking the sound barrier on the freeway, but the person in the econo-box who overreacts to it.

it looks like more than just a body slapped over a chassis - I mean look at the rear with the taillights and all - it looks formed specifically for this purpose..

Considering it's a GT300 class car, it's heavily regulated & I don't believe the car is allowed to basically be a Prius shell over a chassis.

It's not a whine like in a positive displacement. The 'Vette in the video is a dynamic supercharger.
