I'll volunteer my car for the part of "Millenium Falcon" - she's fast, at least when the cycling valve in the warp core isn't on the fritz. And she's cantankerous and usually torn apart. Hell, for...

Overkill,

OK - so I'm sort of in between the youth and the elders, but at 34 I've learned a few things. Scott, do you really think a less powerful car will slow you down? Let 'em complain! I certainly don't...

Connecting rods

Tom,
