Second guessing yourself or are you poking fun of the peasants of the old school automatic transmissions?

Much like being geeky, the dual-clutch units have brought the automatic transmission out of the dark and into acceptable mainstream culture.

Just because I like sleepers, and the SHO badge is a give away.

That's a pretty car. Too bad it's approximately the size of one of these:

I can't come up with a good pic- but the SHO is a better chassis. Don't ask me why- as it doesn't make any sense. But it is... At least in 2010.

Anniversary of Tazio Nuvolari's death.

I can't unsee Brian Posehn in that comic.

From everything I have read everywhere, with the exception of shocks and springs, they are identical chassis.

I know you work for the oval of blue, but all the PNs match.

What am I missing?

From what we were told, there were a couple other chassis changes- I think the SHO was stiffer- for sure, it was a 1.1 version of the chassis. Also, while the brakes are the same now, it took a LOT of effort to make it that way- the SHO came out with better brakes, too.

Which made that mountain race kind of odd- the SHO was a better car than the MKS.

But google search works!

My wife likes old crappy B&W movies, this one showed a car they call the Flying Wombat. I've seen it before, but never so many!
