Funky wheel
The sidewall-less tire thread made me think of this:

I've always found that pretty interesting but I've never seen it implemented in an ultra high performance application. I imagine it could dramatically improve handling since the weight is pivoting so low on each wheel ...sort of like holding those long poles on a high wire to move your center of gravity below the wire, so you almost can't fall off.
