Just the sound of raw power was enough for me to love it, but when the guy let me sit in the car and then later took me for a ride, I can't really describe how I felt. I said that 1 day I will have one of these. I gave up on that dream 10 years later because of the price. I never considered "Kit Cars" as they were "rattle traps" and all the other BS. Now that I have matured a bit, and have seen the kits/rollers up close, I realized that was not the truth and now here I am, with my dream back alive and desperately trying to get mine.
Don't give up your dream. I damn near did. It's one of those things I believe would have haunted me to my grave everytime I would have seen one of these cars.
