Here Chris Harris drives the stabbed-rat quick, all electric Volkswagen I.D. R. A prototype that breaks almost every rule in every motorsport book - but that doesn’t matter. This creation isn’t designed to go head-to-head with other cars. No, this car is designed to go head-to-head with physics and the clock.
