[s-cars] Polish Torsen - FC (Fiat Content)

[Rich Assarabowski]

It's hilarious, especially those burnouts (not the stock engine
though!!).  My wife and I were bursting at the seams watching the clip
(she's from Poland, I've been there many times).  The Fiat 126p is made
in Poland under license from Fiat, air cooled rear engine, 600cc, 4800
rpm max, max speed of 105 km/hr, I think something like 25 HP.  Imagine
this scene -- a Polish family of 4 going on vacation with a trailer
hitch and roof rack on this car, used to be a common sight in the old
days.  The "maluch" (Polish for "mini") is gradually disappearing in
modern Poland in favor of more civilized cars.

displacement of a 126p!)

4 wheel steering and the decision to run
>the drive train the other way around. Got to give those Poles credit.
