So Charlie, Of all of these great cars could you rate them in order which you liked, best to least and why? Just wondering, not that any one of the cars was/is poor.

Not really. They all did things differently. Red Witch was my first Pro-Touring car and it is what prompted me to sign up for Power Tour the first time back in 2001. That was a great trip from Pontiac Michigan to San Bernardino Ca along Route 66 parts of the way. Thrasher was a awsome smooth fast car that was easy to drive on the track. 427" small block that I never even had to adjust the valves on. Mule was just flat cool and stupid fast once I got the turbos on but is like driving a truck compared to jackass. Mali2ude is now a stupid fast luxury car.... All great cars.

Thanks for the reply, it sounds like Jackass is maybe your favorite right now? Yet who could argue with that cars drivetrain. All wonderful cars, but what about camaro X, just curious?

I think Jody drove Camaro X more than I did. It was probably smooth like the Thrasher but not as much hp. Very easy to go fast on a track.

yep, great car. You could get comfortable in it in just a few minutes, which is rare for me. Gives you an idea how well sorted Mark had it.
