Don't wana sound like a hater or doubter here for the sake of it but thats either BS or I haven't looked I to exactly what this kit does....

Teams spend crazy money shaving seconds off lap times on cars that are already purposely designed to race.
Turning a hot hatch into a race car is different, which is why massive improvements can be made.
I use the term race car loosely!
I remember first seeing pictures of this car under a tent made of ladders getting painted. It's come a long way since then but as others have said it was still epic back then!
Awesome car.
