Yup, I remember in the summer of 69 (isn't there a song like that?), I was
driving a '64 TR4 and my buddy had a new road runner. He tried to keep up
with me late one night through some twisties and ended up on his roof in the
ditch. Only pride was injured, fortunately, but he never tried to keep up
when the road got curvy. Course we had to start out that way or I'd never
keep up.:-)
BTW, that was my first and last tr***ph. Not a bad car though, if memory
serves me.
Safety Fast!
