They probably realize that with the high production values it would make any of their regular car shows look really lame by comparison ....

Thankfully, we get the BBC in Canada ....

It's got to be good! Only 240 or so hp to get the car to 150!?!?!

Actually it's adjustable from 0.41 down to 0.36!
Here's a great tech story that I just found on the car. Enjoy the read.

Great find, very interesting. When the brakes are jammed at high speed, the rear wing gets angled up more to increase downforce and reduce braking distance. How in the world does the awd layout in and awd configuration.
