Tim loved that car. I enjoyed working on it. It was very rewarding to work on it since Tim was such a good driver that he knew instantly if we had made an improvement or not. But yeah, it was a 99% effort type of car. Very unpleasant to ride in. Tim liked driving it though. He drove it to work and ran errands in it. I lived about 20 miles from his place and he drove it over my place all the time. He had one girlfriend that liked the car but the average wife wouldn't want to ride in it. They would get out hot, smelling like gas and with their ears ringing.That's attributed to the tradeoffs of making an older car measurably and competitively handle better.
Wanting a car that can keep up with Corvette Z06 and living with a car that can keep up with Corvette Z06 is two different things.
