Man, oh man...any of you see this highly complimentary Car and Track Road Test?! It's been on a nearly constant loop up in here.
Everything about this video is (curse)-ing rad - the music, the lingo* and the footage of tires drifting and smoking between every S-curve...DANG! Extra points for super slo-mo footage in the slalommmmm...
My Avanti snobbishness, with a strong preference for only the lower profile, raked '63-4 nose is officially NO MORE!
Bob Peterson politely defended the Avanti II on another thread and, after seeing this, I must concur.
BONUS: a short montage at the end featuring late 60s NASCAR (when it counted) and Indy clip of the STP LOTUS-TURBINE!
...Please excuse me, I need a cold shower.
* my faves:
"...wallop fed to the rear wheels through a Borg Warner 4-speed!"
"...at 45, we dropped the anchor and stopped in 57 feet!"
