again allow you to miss an apex".
Has anyone heard of these little beasties or am I having my chain yanked 
(won't be

Sport Quattro's, an homolagation special, about 200 made, usually driven by 
little girls with names like Michele and Fabrizia on their way to play with 
boys. Embarrassed and humiliated everyone who played against them.  500+ hp 
depending on how far one turned the boost control in the Group B cars.
Michele's car is brought out every so often to "terrorize the current crop of 
F1 drivers" according to Motor Sport (UK) magazine.
The cars have a Turbo the size of a 5 gallon can of paint and more Kevlar and 
other unobtainium than the less high tech Space Shuttle.
