Me too. I thought it was interesting that they sorta started from scratch in wind tunnel design and that they claimed to have worked with one of the Wright brothers (among other people). It show at once how serious they were and how little they yet knew.

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.
