I think that they may be using a liberal amount of balonium in it to get
the claimed performance.

Just a cursory look at it comes up with lots of drag-producing
intersections and shapes.


Once they add the required hundred pounds or so of DOT required
bumpers and crash worthiness structure I'd be surprised if it could
get off the ground in any category; much less LSA.
