Sin Cars R1 is a street legal GT4-race car.

The prototype In depth for the first time:

Your opinion?

Horrible video (why would anyone make something like that....) but their site provides much more information.

At least its a supercar that has merits in racing.
That's something a lot of current supercars miss dearly.

I presume the engine is from GM's LS lineup?

More like some techno music video than a car vid.....the car looks interesting, I'd like to see it on Top Gear or the Grand Tour or Head 2 Head so you actually learn something about the car.

It's an experimental video. Sorry if you don't like the style.

The car was in prototype stage as I filmed the sequences. It has a full carbon body. Engine is a Corvette 6.2l V8.

I dont like the style but I also dont like the fact that it hardly provides any information.
Even how the car looks as most images are fucked up in some way and there is no undistorted total overview.
The music I can mute. (I'm judging the content on its informative value, not its entertainment value as that is very subjective)

If you're really interested I could additionally post some unedited fotos...

I got some technical information, too as I spoke to the test driver ...

Yes well for instance detailed pictures of the suspension setup and such would be interesting.
On their site they say it has adjustable pushrod suspension.
That is something you dont see everyday. For instance a koenigsegg, or a porsche carrera GT or Spyker C8 has that but a 918 or laferrari hasnt.
And I think competitors in his priceclass (mclaren 720s, ferrari 488 etc) also dont have that tech, so its a pretty special feature to see for someone who is interested in the engineering side of supercars.

Twin plate clutch is also not a 'standard' automotive part.

How the car looks is not that important imho (as all its competitors probably look better, looking at ferrari's and lamborghini's), but the tech could be if its heritage/origins lies in racing.

I also dont know where to place this car. Is it more like a ferrari 488 / mclaren 720s / porsche gt2rs / huracan (performante?) or more hardcore like a radical RXC GT (which are obviously much faster on track, even than the hypercar class like 918/p1 etc)

I attached some pictures. But I didn't pay attention to details like pushrod. They showed me whatever I wanted to see but I had to visit more nice cars this day

The GT4 race version is fairly successful so the base should be ok. But as I said it was a prototype...

I wonder if Yamaha will be talking to them about the model name.

Ask yourself two questions:

- What other vehicles has Bulgaria produced? (Answer: Almost none. The only post-Soviet production I know of was a disastrous partnership with Rover to make an Austin in the 1990s. I don't think it even lasted a year.)
- What manufacturing specialty can you think of from Bulgaria? (I can't think of any. A little research reveals that Bulgaria has substantial mining, heavy hydraulics, machine tool, and electric generation industries. Oh, and military equipment. Nearly all of it is leftover expertise from the Soviet era.)

Ummmm ... no. Not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent ...
