Its special compared to almost every vehicle currently sold in the world.

Even if you add up every model of car that is faster in a straight line or on a track (regardless of price) they account for less than 0.001% of total world vehicle sales. To an enthusiast or benchracer, sure, I can name 2 cars that are faster…

Younger folks may not believe this, but there was a point in America’s history where cost was no object, where beating the Russians to everything demanded limitless allocation of resources to one-time-use projects. Today things are far more frugal, or at least I should say all our money is dedicated to sending old…

Think it would end differently?

That is such a naive statement.

I just lost my shit completely. It’s like the Larry the Cable Guy of planes.
