I found the final redline a couple of times. Once with an automatic.

Luckily it was not the built engine but one we were experimenting with. Although I doubt the built one would have popped anyway.

Times have changed ....
I am an old fart so can remember 'cruising' along at freeway speed limits with the stick shift in the fourth and final gear. Was impressed the first time I saw a car with a 5th gear. My internal 18 year old is amazed he has a car with a 6th gear.

When I picked up my 86 I told the sales guy that was the last stick shift I'd driven, he had no idea what I was talking about... I'm 33 and already yelling at clouds. Doing great here, folks. |
