    Is it me, or does the 166 driver stray left often and come WAY too close to oncoming traffic several times?

    Not just you, I commented on the same thing in the 3X8 section. Still, nice footage and great sounds!

    I am impressed with how quick the 166 MM is. While the 328 is no rocket, a much older car was making the 328 work to keep up!

    Bill,

    Remember, the early racers were very light and only slightly larger than go-carts. Thus power to weight was quite good.

    To me the neat thing is listening for the shifts on the crash box transmission.

    Regards,

    Art S.
