I guess I benefited from all those Car & Driver and Road & Track magazines I compulsively read as a teenager!

Thumbs up Nissan Skunkworks Creates Juke-R Supercar

My first response to seeing the Juke-R after liking the original Juke so much: a slack-jawed, wide-eyed "sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!"

It makes me wonder if/whether the Nissan skunkworks reinforced the frame and whether the Juke-R is still AWD. Frame torque flex is an enemy of high speed control.

I won't tell my wife. She will need to drive her gutless RX-8 another year.
