as far as i know, freddie hunt who is only 19 has only ever owned the matiz.
he does race a lot though.
The point is, he hasn't done a single thing to that car but i'm pretty sure there aren't many people who can drive one like he does.
You mention modifiying a car to get the best out of it.
My point is, how about taking any car, be it a shopping car or a super car and getting the best out of it unmolested?
Extreme example time:
guy 1 who buys an integra type-r but can't drive for shit. Buys a shitload of mods that make it potentially super race car and because it has more power he wins most races by out powering them
guy 2 has a bog standard IT-R but races it regularly and knows it like the back of his hand.
Who is the enthusiast or whatever you want to label them?
