Actually... very true. The most fun car I've ever driven was a '73 914 with a built 2.0 (actually a 2.3 or 2.4 at this point), with a really aggressive cam, nickasil barrels, twin Webers, Weltmeister headers/muffler and a 911S brake conversion (with 5 bolt Fuchs, of course)... it was like a go kart, halfway through a corner you could punch the gas and the thing would just carry you through, sliding, but totally in control.

Put some extra rubber on it, and two sequential turbo, and you've got a regular track beast. Neko.

I rode in a flared out (and very reinforced) 914 with a Nascar (ew) specification 350 "bowtie block", boosted, mated to a built Boxster tranny, with massive brakes from a newer 911

It didn't have a speedometer, but I think that's the fastest I've ever gone in a car. Or at least it felt like that.

Getting really OT here, but

While the above was a 6-cylinder beast, that sounds like a fucken monster! Neko.

The best part was it was owned and built by this dorky little man with big glasses... who was a car insurance broker!!!
