Franco of Gumball Rally came to mind today. Hit about 100 miles of driving in, most of it third gear, twisty road stuff, from 3-5000 rpm. After a good hour of running like this, I could feel her starting to smile. I'm not there yet, but I'm really starting to see the potential of this beastie.

I don't know about her, but I'm still smiling!

Heck! I saw Gumball rally in a theater. I think that was the summer of 76.

I'd love to see it on the big screen. Unfortunately, I would have been 9 when it was released.

Best line in the entire movie!

Loved the gals in the Porsche too: "Well, they were kinda cute. Weren't they?"

I would have chosen the ladies over the 911 they drove back then. 44 years later, hmmm, not so sure. Have you seen prices of those air cooled Porches lately?
