that little bugger is cool. not mine (wish it was), yada yada.

The ad is funny. Those are cool little cars.

Unless plans have changed since it left my garage there may be one at the challenge this year.

Indeed there might be.......or might delay and try to make it a top 20 car for next year. But I think I need to bring it just to see how it does.

My HS car was a 73 civic with the 1000cc motor and 4-speed. This is the hot rod 1200cc version. I could pick up the rear myself back then. It was so light in the back that every time I lifted the throttle I got major oversteer...great training for the later days of AutoX.

I did a ram air tube from the cowl and picked up 13mph top speed.

Are there any current pictures you can post or do we have to wait until October?
