Reply to "Lane's Beck Super Coupe #3"

Lane,

This car will be astounding. I had forgotten about the roll bar, but I'm sure you will appreciate the added measure of safety.

What really impresses me is the "lay-back" room Carey and Chuck were able to achieve. Every other mid-engine car I've ever seen feels crowded. Looking at the frame members in relation to the door opening, I can see guys with really long legs and torsos fitting in this thing. It's all going to depend on how the engine cover is built, but I'm really liking what I'm seeing so far.

I'm still an air-cooled, rear-engined guy-- but I can really see the appeal of the whole thing, especially given your extremely hot/humid summers. An enclosed car with decent heat/air, and a modern computer controlled engine could easily be a second car, able to be used year-round in the SE.

Good for you!
