[s-cars] musings

[David Kase]

Why not do some research and get something competitive?  Competitive 
does not necessarily mean fast.  If you pick the right car in the right 
class you can have an advantage.  Its more fun to at least be near the 
top of the timing charts.
For example, many autocrossers bought the 4 door Neon with the SOHC 
engine instead of the faster 2-door DOHC.  The 4 door was "faster" in 
its class.
