Great job, as usual.

There was a guy who raced one of those in the Southwest Division of the Sports Car Club of America back in the day.

Ah, I get it, went right over my head.

As I recall, it handled similar to other top heavy micro-sedans, like the Cortinas.

I was always amazed at the brand allegiance some drivers had, regardless of whether the car they were racing was competitive in their class.
