Re: Re: Being Rare is a good thing

The cars are rare enough but when you make a hybrid one like I have it confuses people more. Went to the track yesterday with a few 3si friends as we all had the cars shined up nice and ready to roll. As soon as we pull in me and my friend Jay with a lowered green first gen VR4 get mobbed by people checking the cars out. Questions were flying and I did what I could to answer. I opened the hood to help cooling and walked away for a while. I guess Jay was standing there when some kids were checking the car out and one of them mentioned how nice my MUSTANG looked.

WTF? This is the 3rd or 4th time someone thought my car was a Mustang. Oh well, its kinda flattering getting all kinds of questions about the car and the compliments feel good too.

BTW, I think I managed the slowest time in the history of the 3/s. Got a decent launch, powershifted to second and boom, I loose all power. Car is sputtering down the track, gassing it wont even make it rev. My intake pipe fell apart at the MAS elbow joint. I managed to run a 43.849 @ 14.84mph.
