Ok, I'll concede the Mustangs, well the classic ones at least because there were some dogs over the years, but the good ones were superb. And of course the UK's Mark One & Two Escort rally cars. Dave

Although I did have a very exciting through Manhatten in a Crown Victoria driven by a gentleman who couldn't speak English and who's name I couldn't pronounce. But I knew I was in the hands of a truly exceptional driver. He had to be to drive that shed as fast as he did ! Dave

Dave, I think I had the same driver as you. He must have moved, back in February 1990 he was in Madison, Wisconsin. Bill

Bill the thing I found most exciting was the huge rear bench seat covered in thick shiny plastic that made every corner an excercise in finding something to hang on as I slid from door to door. 20$ was cheap for those kind of thrills Dave

Ok Mike, you forgot a couple... Fastest On Race Day...or First On Race Day!  My "guys" have spent several drool filled days at the World Ford Challenge in St. Louis! The street legal Mustangs there...that they drove to the track... only went 170 mph. in 8.7 seconds. (Yeah, he's here telling me this stuff!) Oh, and yes, there were Granadas there! :p
