Designer Marco Sweston has the answer: a track racer built from synthetic bone, muscle, and skin that runs in a pack on a custom-designed race course. The Touch Effect concept uses a carbon fiber frame reminiscent of a skeleton, which is surrounded by synthetic muscles that control the suspension, steering, and insulation of the vehicle. Topping it all off is an acrylic glass skin that is transparent to show off the muscles doing their thing underneath. The steering mechanism is an extension of the muscles, which functions like reins.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631853931121671170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijao2DjW9YFAUXc1_zLD0N_d8TMNxp-7oKQ1ySaryTLuso5_e-5G2z44_RjGYyVBV3m0NRxDGrKev-Z2qN2utBAyYcEECnWSQzjGQ5Xl_TqK0kIYZQoMPdNcAC8ZVFgldw8tCcRPiRNcY/s400/Sport-Car-Racing-in-2030-Project-by-Marco-Sweston-Touch-Effect-Motorsports-Mercedes-Benz-W25-inpired-car-5.jpg" style="display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Designed as a continuation of the <b>Silver Arrows like W25</b>, the project has been to a large extent inspired by this model of <b>Mercedes Benz</b>.

The result is a pure driver-focused package that, in both the coupe and Roadster form, exploits and emphasizes the sporting nature of the iconic Vantage."</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628119364669826930" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWwo5UFGEFnY-lO6gcGlRw_VlOZzV3xasLYEFxKaT_BgtOgkL9Levgv6-hWRQ4epQthT7-lxug_Y0IER9OKHz-MR2mHRHCnjo1YWYCod7-YmK_GZOGN7XdXYJKxtdqmZFk3co6EAm4r1c/s400/2012-Aston-Martin-Sport-Cars-V8-Vantage-S-Roadster-8.jpg" style="display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b>2012 Aston Martin Sport Cars V8 Vantage S Roadster </b></div>Power for the 2012 <b>Aston Martin Sport Cars</b> V8 Vantage S Roadster comes from a 4.7L V8, which has been re-engineered to deliver 430 bhp (436 PS / 321 kW) at 7300 rpm and torque of 490 Nm (361 lb.ft) at 5000 rpm.
