And the other way to avoid these problems? A way to drive around worry-free in a fun, enjoyable, high-end sports car without attracting too much attention, or spending too much on maintenance, or scraping your bumper on every single driveway? A way you can use your car as more than just a toy, a way you can park it on

I LOVE LOVE LOVE that there is a girl writing for Jalopnik! <3

There is hope for my daughter yet!

(Also... great article on a fun and very unusual little car.)

Flip those headers over and go buy bigger brakes. :)

It would be a quick, painful, and glorious death.

Only if you have a sonic screwdriver.

Seconded. However, it has to be a Westy.

Holy hell...

Go 944 style. Mount the transaxle, clutch, and flywheel in back, engine in front, connect with a CF driveshaft, and move the bits around until you hit 50/50 magic.

Wouldn't be half bad in an Audi R8 either... :)

Gotta do it 944 style and move the gearbox to the back. Connect the two with a carbon fiber driveshaft and you're (really) off to the races.

That's a very good answer.

(although a bit too normal.)

Turn the headers around and put it in the back of a '89 VW Westfalia. :)

That would surprise a few people.

I'm completely aware... it just didn't support my point so I omitted it. ;)

As a Naval Aviator, I am simultaneously insulted and amused.

The mighty P-3 was a lot of fun. Before that I got to fly the King Air 90 - also a lot of fun, but the PT-6s had spool up time that the Allison T-56s didn't.

But to get back to the important stuff - I'm really glad nobody got hurt. A little bit of 3 wheeling can be pretty scary, but it's great news that nobody was

One more just for fun... The Hunter fears no ice. ;)

Real shame for the the pilot that they didn't have 4 big props with beta. :)

P-3 can taxi, takeoff and land on solid glaze ice with no problem. The wonders of differential thrust and thrust reversing ability. We also commonly reversed into parking spots.

Why not?

Strange bedfellows...
