its not the 1st wooden car.and of course ya all know it doesnt mean the whole things made of wood..lol
It's possible. We met a man who built a wooden hot rod, and it had a pretty nice Cobra engine in it.

If it goes 240mph, and its made of wood.... that's basically the textbook definition of 'death on wheels'. Granted, you're dead in a 240mph crash in just about anything, but this whole car would turn into shrapnel on impact... On the bright side... if it catches on fire, you won't have to pay the tow truck driver.
