Watch Jim Glickenhaus' new supercar tear up a racetrack

Jim Glickenhaus, director of movies such as "The Protector" staring Jackie Chan, loves cars. He's been an avid collector for years, owning beauties like a 1949 Ferrari 159 Syder Corsa. His main project now, however, is the development of his modular race car, the $2.59 million Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus SCG 003 -- a machine said to be capable of driving on public roads to the track as a twin-turbo V-12, then racing as a twin-turbo V-6.

This idea is groundbreaking for a GT race car, something Glickenhaus believes should make him eligible for a spot in Garage 56 and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Before any of that, the car will compete in the Nurburgring 24, and prior to that, it will be released in the flesh at the Geneva motor show in March.
