Hulme F1 Supercar

An interesting design from NZ, it's named after Denny Hulme who is (so far, I have dreams of Scott Dixon making it one day) New Zealand's only F1 World Champ.

The car is too be powered buy the previous model BMW M5 V8, it's also been designed to fit the new V10. BMW are giving some assistance to the project. It should be interesting if it ever gets built.

Front-end is slightly reminiscent of the Enzo. Should be a corker if they put the V10 in it.

Some nice shots of an interesting looking car. It's good to see that it's in "Mclaren Orange" after Denny's long association with that other great Kiwi driver, Bruce Mclaren, in both F1 and CanAm racing.

hehe Rob. I was looking at these shots, thinking someone had stolen them. Then realised again, who you are. I'm stupid sometimes.

I still wouldn't mind seeing that car. Or the other Lamborghini's for that matter. :D

Very nice ride!
Reminds me of an aborted C1 Sportscar that Spice were designing in '91 as an all composite customer racer with the exposed front wheels with tight fitting mudguards to overcome the then Sportscar regulations and a F1 style front wing. I think Peugeot ran a front end like it in Le Mans practice in '92 on one of their usual C1 cars.

nice photos, shame about the car tho. I think it looks butt ugly. It just looks it was designed for thunderbirds :)
