That looks completely rediculous and a flying death trap. So would you need a pilot license to drive this thing? Oh and the need to refuel every 75 miles by air, or 150 miles by land just spells failure in my book. Enzo is crying in his grave right now.

I don't believe it.

What's the method of propulsion on that thing? I see no propeller, which wouldn't be too feasible anyway due to how low the car sits. I don't imagine it using a jet engine and carrying two different fuels, AND being a hybrid.

BS.
