What version Creo is that?
I use Creo 3.0 everyday and my interface doesn't look like that.

Looks like 4.0. I use Creo 4 and it blows 3.0 out of the water in usability.

I use Solidworks everyday at my job. I can tell the parts are being viewed in Solidworks.

Creo 2.0 > Solidworks. Usability is an issue for beginners in parametric CAD design. Creo has to be taught in a classroom setting in order to see the benefits it brings over Solidworks. There is a huge learning curve for Creo and not enough information available online to bridge the gap.

There has never been a moment when I couldn't model or simulate something in Creo. The same cant be said for Solidworks.

Hahaha wow it is in Solidworks. I've only used SW a handful of times but the ribbon at the time looks damn near the same as Creo. Creo is pretty powerful but not many people use it in the auto industry. Most companies use Solidworks, Catia or NX.

Yes they are but it would probably be deleted if I put a link up to the company which is called Omega Design Solutions based in Mirfield, UK. If any mods don't like me mentioning that, I don't work for them, I just drive their car. They only made this engine as a project for their car and haven't even tried to sell a single one to date, but I think it would be great if other people ran these engines too. They even have 2 spares ready but this current one hasn't broken. We are out in it again this weekend. Can't wait.

Is there plans to work an improved cage in there? Seems like you're giving something up by not utilizing the full weld in adventure.

It's happening over the next few weeks. Meanwhile, here's a few more videos of our recent adventures
