Supercar Style Frame

I don't know much here...just what I got from the builder. I do know that I've heard some folks talk about how beefy the frame is. Officially, it is a "Stress panned monocoupe structural o95 square tube chassis".

Update: The builder just added this:

The frame is one by three and two by four square structural steel tube. It has floor pans that are dropped to increase driver comfort. Safety is further increased by having steel under you instead of fiberglass. The frame is protected from side impact by a three by three quarter inch steel beam that extends from the rear of the door post, side-to-side. The front of the frame has a built in crumple zone so in the event of a frontal impact, the engine will ride under the frame and not in your lap. The rear of the frame was beefed up to prevent the fuel cell from taking a rear impact.
