Back in February we brought you initial news of the supercar being developed by Formula 3 racing team GTA. The exotic was tipped to be powered by a mid-mounted 700hp V10, however reports circulating around the internet now suggest that the ten-cylinder powerplant for this vaporware supercar will produce closer to 800hp and be sourced from -- wait for it -- Pontiac.
We'll take that one with an overloaded container ship's worth of salt. Last we checked, GM didn't have a V10 in its parts bin, and the mere idea of the General developing a bespoke engine just for this Spanish racing outfit's nonexistent car is ridiculous on its face. The idea that this mythical powerplant would then wear the Pontiac arrowhead logo -- well, that's straitjacket-type stuff, people. We know the General is eager to put the excitement back into the Excitement Division, but com on. Let's be rational.
