A cheap shot; perhaps they did have a flaw in the routing/materials of

handling??? easy. prelude. only cheaper. crx too for that matter.

Both are front wheel drive cars, by definition you lose.

wow, that idiocy is right up there with your trunk organizers.


Nope. He's right.

and i've watched preludes DOMINATE m3's and m5's on the track.


If true, there was "handicapping" going-on to "level the field".

There's not a purpose-built race car on the planet that is FWD. There
are reasons for that.


Well it is nearly fifty years, but IIRC Mini's won the Monte Carlo Rally
many times (and would have come 1, 2, 3 in 1966 if they hadn't fudged the
rules to disqualify the Brits and let a French car win...)


people that talk smack about fwd vehicles don't know how to drive them.
