Race version of the famous Tatra 603, only 1 piece is in existence now.

This car came on its own to all races it entered.

170 Hp V8 air cooled engine comes from Tatra 607 formula monopost.

4 speed manual transmission

195 Km/h top speed

Almost every part of this car is directly from road version.

THE Sound!

The big exhaust pipes are there to help cooling the engine by low pressure suction, then more fresh air will enter the engine. (ejectoric cooling)

...Voted purely because of that pair of trumpets at the posterior. Holy wowsers. "Ejectoric" cooling, eh? Sure sounds dirty.
 
Thats why it has so big exhausts it helps to cool the engine by creating low pressure suction. (sorry for bad explanation)
 
It's a shame the Czechs don't get enough recognition for motoring in popular culture. Cars like this are an example of why they should.
 
Karelpipa -> You have two exact pics in one post. Please replace the 2nd rear 1/4 shot into an interior shot. Thanks!
