Speaking of 'chops, anything new on your screen?
Even in my late teens/early 20s I was interested in more than 1320 performance. That was one of the main reasons I opted for a new Z/28 in '69 instead of an SS, I wanted great handling with my performance on all types of roads. And as I've gotten older that has never changed, I could care less about having 550-700HP with awesome straight line performance, I'm more interested in a good high performance engine with a suspension that will straighten out those curves on any road!
