Freestream promises race-car experience

Two former colleagues of ex-McLaren designer and evo contributor Gordon Murray have created this, the mid-engined Freestream T1, an outrageously styled, ultra-lightweight road and track car claimed to handle like a Le Mans sports prototype and accelerate like an F1 car.
