I think you have it in for Jap econo rockets, more than you do for other econo rockets. The Shelby Cobra was a 4 banger British car originially wasn't it? If we had the budget for something like that, we'd do it. But what's on the table is a 3500lb Mustang or a 2500lb RX7. And although the Mustang has that cool muscle factor, I'd rather have the extra second in the quarter.
My first NEW car was a Ford Courier(Mazda). Couldn't kill it. Japs okay, just not my thing. I grew up with Muscle cars, when Jap was joke. That's all.

Want fast? Get me a rocket nozzle and some silver screen. I'll get you down the QUARTER in under 4 seconds.

Brutal. Remember the rocket car at OCIR? Ran on H2O2?
