I was a little conflicted as a youth, I alternately had subscriptions to Hot Rod, then Car and Driver, then back to HR. When I was about 8 my dad took me to British Motors and I sat in a Lotus Europa, it became my favorite car for a couple of decades. My first car was a 1968 Chevelle SS 396 in 1975, I later owned a 1969 Camaro RS and 1970 SS.
A couple of years ago I was looking for an old Camaro as a project car, to build and drive some. My best friend, a Corvette and Porsche owner for 25 years, told me that I am a Formula 1 fan not Nascar, get a Porsche you will be happier. I found my 84 Carrera Targa in September '04 and have been absolutely satisfied and usually thrilled. I do most of my own work and have an absolute blast driving. The "point and squirt" method of driving is a cheap thrill compared to taking a difficult turn with balance and skill in a machine that begs to be pushed harder. I can't wait to get into DE and get more out of my car..
