I never really understood the Red Barchetta story.

I think Geddy Lee had one, but wrote this song that doesn’t make any sense about driving one. I mean “Turbos spinning” and something about the brakes failing or something. Which might happen - I know my old Italians lost their brakes after about 100 feet of braking due to fade and glazing.

My god, to think we survived that era of driving. The last one I had was my 77 Cosworth Vega which tricked a lot of people, including me into believing that because it accelerated like a modern sport car that would stop like one.

It does not.
