I have heard claims in the past that the old UA doesn't have traction control or power steering. Is this true?

I have to ask this.... I realize the driver who broke the record in UA1 has passed on (R.I.P.) but have you given any thought to who the driver might be when you go for the Bug SS record?

Jerod and Junus one quick question I had....

Being a bit old school fan of the manual transmission (even though I completely appreciate and understand the need for modern f1 shifting technology), have you guys chosen a transmission setup for the new generation cars yet?

Building one of the world's fastest super cars is a formidable task. Are there any specific car designs that stand out in your past as a major influence?
