That's what most people say when they see the cockpit.Actually these cars are a dream to drive for a 200 mph car,you just have to get used to not being able to see in front of you and drive the wall or the centerline and hope nobody crosses into your lane in front of you.

This is my current race car,it's a 76 vega funny car.This took me over 3 years to build due to our crappy economy and is parked tis year untill I can find a Marketing partner to take some of the expenses off me.
