Nascar press conference

[Perry, Chris]

My parents '75 Fox (26 years ago) had Multi-Port FI (CIS).  If I remember
right didn't the 1964 or 65 'Vette have Multi Port FI? And some other early
'merican iron?  Why didn't it catch on with American cars then?  Cost,
complexity, stupidity?  Of course it could be that conspiracy with OPEC to
make cars that use alot of fuel.  That's why they killed that inventor of
the 100mpg carburetor.... ;^)

Remembering the 200 mi. round trip to get an ice cream cone the day after
getting the 75 Fox.

Yeah, that's 13 years ago. That's the point! (heck, even my '75 Saab was
a Fuelie). The last carbureted US VAG products were the '76
Rabbit/Scirocco and Dasher, and Audi Foxes ('mod 80 for the rest of the
world).
