I have never understood the appeal of taking something that is normally slow, and at great expense making it fast. I can understand taking something that is fast and making it faster, or something that hauls a large load, and making it haul an even larger load; but trying to achieve the opposite strength of the vehicle seems weird.
That said, I had quite a few smiles riding and driving in that Ford Lightning. If he'd have paid as much as he did on that truck instead on a fast car, perhaps we'd be dead.
...and autocross I completely understand.
