Chassis looks great even without a body, boxer rumble sounds great and I think will really set the car apart!

Great press indeed. Their website was flooded yesterday it wouldn't load.

I was disappointed in the video...
because I wanted more previews of the 818!

Sort of like a teaser trailer at the movies.

That would be interesting to hit a bump.

I noticed that as well. Seems like there's a built in rake to the static chassis orientation which makes the clearance towards the rear pretty low.

That's not the frame. That's a quick and dirty pipe mounted outside of the frame to carry coolant to the radiator. I'm 90% certain that it's not even the way the kit will do it, as FFR stuff usually looks more engineered then that.
Frame look pretty level to me.

Hahaha. I am guessing that Dave Smiths new black ops mantra has been enforced! Oh well shame on those that pushed him to far with outragious critisism and rude thoughtless comments.

tease, but it looks nice...
Can't wait to hoon an 818 on a dirt, or gravel logging road. :D

Part of it could be the angle of the shot. When you see it drive around the corner it doesn't look nearly as low.

Nah, I just figured I'd leave it to Dave to tell you what's coming...l
