$16k could get you into a slightly rough around the edges C5Z that would blow this things doors off this thing all day long but, to be fair, a halfway clean all-trac is a rare freaking car.

Fun fact: I sold a Mustang with 215k miles in 2016.  Hooray for me contributing to the 0.3% !!

Alright, simmer down there gramps... The question at hand is can you kickstart a 38 year old 500cc 2-stroke, cold?

Honestly, I’m nothing special but... maybe? What/where do you race?

From the thread on obscure car terms, I learned the 1912 Hispano Suiza Alfonso XIII only had rear brakes.

I’d be impressed if a 75 year old could even start a KTM 495.

Actually, you gave me an idea and I think I cracked it... Enter a C6 Z06 or some other ridiculously cheaty car and strap a big generator to it... or get creative and fabricate a way to run a generator off the engine. Run a cord from the Z06 to the EV, and have the EV draft the Z06 the entire race.

Pedant: A pendant is a piece of jewelry.

Even with a full Tesla powertrain I think you’d have a hard time beating dinosaur juice cars in a 24 hour race.

Or, in other words, If you’re willing to put down a big enough deposit you can have a free Tesla rental car for a week?

Yeesh, .08 is the legal limit for driving in just about every state.

Am I the only one that thinks it looks like a Scrappy-Doo version of a ZL1?

There were more than a few occasions of a black kid beating up a white kid back in the day, police were never called... I don’t remember any of the fights being a racial thing though.

I think you’re pretty lonely in that opinion, but given the choice between this and a 720S, I’d have a 2006 Ford GT.

In a perfect world, they’d have a “purist” version with 3 pedals and a naturally aspirated motor with around 500-550 hp... since, to me, that’s about the right amount of power for a row-your-own car.

The trip from Indianapolis to Salt Lake City is about 1550 miles and, according to google maps, takes 23 hours by car.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been in high school... when did criminal charges for nonsense during school hours start being a thing?

Why would the Citroen owner even complain? I mean, c’mon... free pick axe!
