Also the frame on a McLaren F1 is VERY structurally sound, and will not 'crack like eggshells'
No. Sorry, I meant the body. One of my old neighbors and I were talking one day, he is a corvette conosseiur (sp?). We were talking about wrecks. The body really does shatter, I've seen the pics of his first vette, it got wrecked.
