Bay looks like **** IMO, and does remind me of something from a high school child with daddy's bank load. Expected more from Hybrid Racing not some trendy hard-parker.

Love the contrast of the bland colored exterior and absolutely nutty engine bay.

Love the hater comment, someone always has to be first to say it. Thats my opinion, and by posting pictures on a forum it was asked for, and because I prefer not to swing from anyone's nuts I will give my actual opinion. And, yes if you remove the wheels and repaint the bay it would be a beautiful car.

P.S. Pictures Cute!

I really like the contrast between the simple outside and the crazy bay. Especially, when you open the hood no one's going to expect to see that. Nice work!

Love this car!

I saw it at IA last year. These pics represent it well in my opinion, It was definitely a very well put together car.

Do you guys still have the hood or whatever it was that everyone was signing their names on it?

Car looks good.

Car looks good.

We had to respray the hood and the top for the shoot. They did not want that in the magazine.

The bay is not going to get re-sprayed. Marc put a good amount of time and effort behind it.

We may change out the wheels, but that's about it.

Thanks for the comments guys! They car was built for fun!
