They don't muck around, do they? I thought there were only a few working cars actually around (some of the show cars are static displays only).

I see the handbrake is on the RH side of the gear lever, as for the NC. Designing for the American market again!!!!!!

Looks like part of the side restraint system.

I have seen race cockpit setups with electric's kill switch that looked like that.
If it all turns to custard, pull the lanyard, all electronics are dead.

Probably side restraint mounting point based on the other photos of this car on the internet. The net looks like it attaches there

For the NC and ND, the handbrake is on the right side due to the PPF running down the left side. The PPF is on the left due to the exhaust running down the right.
The NA and NB exhaust is on the left, the PPF is on the right and the Handbrake is on the left.
Not enough room to fit the handbrake on the same side as the PPF.

And yes the net attaches to that tie, I've seen a pic of it.

Really liking the cage design on this. Should be an awesome series to keep an eye on provided decent fields. What regions were they going to release this series in again? Not just North America I hope....

Nah, it's global.
Saw something about it on Stuff or somewhere yesterday - sounds like Asia, Europe and North America. If I recall correctly, there is no word on specific countries within those regions.

I assume it will be North America, Continental Europe and Japan from what they say in that video.
