People still need their own time to do the things they enjoy.

Good point, think about those of us that do track days, we just spend our time riding around in circles consuming petrol and polluting the atmosphere!

I think its mega cool, utter respect to the guy.

Id never have the ability or patients to build one myself, very talented.

Almost as cool as that scaled V12 ferrari featured on one of clarksons programs, that ran and had a working gearbox etc.
