    Apparently Engineers /= Good Drivers.

    Luckily the car held together so well...

    Yet another segg in an accident... with so few of them out there... it can't be usual for there to be this many accidents...

    The car lacks down force over the rear wheels. Which is why the stig crashed it and why it twitches under braking at high speeds.

    This one has the rear wing, which should have (to some extent) solved that problem..

    I think you need 3 hands to keep that car under control!

    Yes, but like it says in the article, the venturi tunnel was removed in order to fit the camera. The wing being on it probably only made it "as steady" if not only slightly more than the Koenigseggs that only have the venturi tunnels.
