	The suspension used was double-wishbone in the front and rear with a switchable height control because of the vehicles low ground clearance. The body was a tubular steel frame while the body being carbon-fibre, kevlar, aluminum, and honeycomb. Due to the desire to have a light vehicle, all windows were plastic except the windshield. The cockpit contained no door panels, carpet, or radio. There was no power-steering and to operate the door from the inside, a pull-cord was used. Lots of air scoops, wings, and vents adorned the vehicle. This was used to achieve maximum down force. The vents also aided in keeping the engine and brakes cool and the turbo's fed.
