    Karl,

    I remember watching you (I presume it was you, unless you had already sold it at that point) do an autocross in the parking lot of the Ice Palace at Northwoods Mall in that TR. I was probably in Middle School at that point. I may have a picture or two some where.

    Yes that was me. Over 6' wide and no power steering. Perfect for auto crossing, lol. And yes, I'm old.

    Yeah, if I remember correctly, you hit a cone in a hair pin turn and just decided that it would be more fun to do donuts than finish the course. See the impact you had on an impressionable young person? ;)

    In the spirit of good humor and that wing - I gotta ask are you a racecar driver or a pilot?

    +1, although not a big fan of the non-correct bumper and wing, it was a beauty back then I am sure.

    After an illegal immigrant with NO insurance pulled out in frt. of me and rearranged the frt. end I decided to go for the much prettier 512 look. The Lambo wing I had sitting around and it was a perfect fit for the huge and naked behind.

    I had a guy at a gas station tell me once. "I love your car but I don't like the wing on the back".
    My reply, "when you get yours, leave it off", lol

    I've never been much of an originality freak. I want to make it mine and only mine.
