I tried to find the slowest car possible. I autocrossed it for a year and was 10 seconds slower than the next slowest car.
I spent the next 10 years with various engines, suspensions, tires/wheels etc getting it dialed in. Nobody will ever pull up next to me and say: "I had one of those, but mine was faster" |
