The Corbin sparrow was well-funded, well-built, and well and truly throttled to death in the market. I call vaporware.

This is a no-brainer: Consulier. The first incarnation of Mosler Automotive pushed out a world-beating monocoque racer that was effectively regulated away, and won races against Porsches, Mazdas, Corvettes, and more despite literally hundreds of pounds of bogus, IMSA-mandated ballast.

Amen.

The article said you tested an IndyCar. Do you think it's still possible to go from Indy to F1? Who was the last guy to successfully do it - Montoya, I think? I don't think anyone would call Bourdais' F1 time a "success", so maybe the Indycar route is best avoided? Thoughts??

There are a lot of controversies over the prominence of "paid drivers", do you think your dad's position in the press box will help convince sponsors that you'll be more talked-abot, and (therefor) that they'll get more coverage by sponsoring you over, say, Kamui?

I call bullshit x 1000. How the f*** did this guy get into the Crown Vic taxis? Granted, wheelchair access should be more prevalent, but it's not like the city of NY is losing something it once had ... this is a GAIN, since the vans COULD be modded, amirite?

Seriously.

YES!!

Right!

Not me - I'm not 38!

This.

I just want to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you.

And the bank.

My school bus used to go by the CMC building in Miami, and I watched those cars spin around at the top of their silo often. I was determined to build a CMC 959 speedster when I was like, 14. Then I got a Lancia Beta Coupe from a frustrated owner who said something along the lines of "get rid of it, here's $100". …

The problem is that BMW won't sell it to you.

Hartley "Hayabusa" V8. 2.8 Liter, 400 hp, 13000 rpm redline. Makes VTEC seem like a diesel.

YEAH!! COTD.

AnyGivenUser for President.

Quite right!

I've owned and driven several, and written about and photographed more. The first car I remember was my family's Beta Montecarlo, and my first car was also a Lancia. When I heard the news I cried like a little b****.
