I hear that. I once drove a 3200# Hays pressure plate on the street. The car was a legal B MP machine. Even a strong kid like me had a twitching leg at a long light. The neutral gate was always inviting. I have become a fan of the dual disc clutch setup. Especially for a dual purpose machine. I drive what I build. Haven't had the money to do otherwise. You know you can transplant SBCs and LS motors into the Z cars pretty easily. Properly setup it is a very Cobraesq ride from accounts I have read. Having once been lucky enough to have had a chance to drive a Cobra SC Roadster (a real one with the owner riding along), I can tell you that would be a hoot.

They make kits to put the LS engines into Mazda Miatas as well. Also, there is a place that does all the work for you in NE Dallas.

driverless cars could eliminate traffic on the freeways by seemlessly merging entering and exiting traffic at high speeds.

I'll keep the original engine and the air and fuel eating carbs that are in it.

I once raced my 2nd ex wife in her 'stang. The way home had a twisty, windy road. I had lunch almost complete by the time she showed up in her muscle car. ;)
