Yes, there is. We (partly) represent it here on EM. More go, lots of fun, less energy. That's my "performance". I love the hotrods too, but a lot of the hotrodder stuff I see is really stale. Even ratrodding is getting stale. Atleast we are still "reviled."

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
