World's First Wooden Supercar
I would hate to get in an accident in this thing, but it sounds pretty cool.
The world's first wooden supercar has been unveiled - and it's faster than a Porsche or a Lamborghini.
The 'Splinter' car can turn out a whopping 700bhp from its twin supercharged, 4.6litre V8 engine - almost 300bhp more than a Porsche 911.
And with a top speed of a staggering 240mph, it will leave the Porsche or even the brand new Lamborghini Revanton trailing in its wake.

RE: World's First Wooden Supercar
it has to be reinforced with steel. and the wood most defiently has to have some kinda of poxy on it for high temperature.. other wise i really dont think this would be a good idea haha. the name even freaks me out. just imagine getting into a accident and it just splinters away.

i typed whale penis on ebay and nothing showed up..
