Where would we be without Brit sports cars to kick around? I mean, the Lucas jokes alone.
I have many fond memories. My buddy David's '60 Bugeye Sprite. 948CC's, a whopping 48 horsepower, top speed of maybe 80...might be able to outdrag a stock Beetle of the same era.
Yet there we were...he 18, me 17, enjoying many fun road trips in it. We and the country still young, the world was our oyster.
