I love to see the car open like this, but only a mechanic can work on the engine like this. The rear clam-shell is bolted down and has several air intake elements attached.
Victor told me that there are two reasons for this. First is that it if the car has trouble on the road, the tail lights/reflectors are not visible for upcoming traffic and, Second is that if the clam-shell is not closed correctly, it can function like a suicide door and catch the wind while driving (which apparently has happened to the prototype, with disastrous results).
