Hi,

FWIW, some minivans will probably out accelerate a stock TR6. But try this
for size: there's no way a minivan can corner like a TR6. So let 'em blow
you off at the line - you'll "get 'em" on the curves.

Now, build your TR6 to respectable performance levels, and you'll be
AMAZED at the acceleration that it is capable of.

On the other hand GRM had a minivan at their $1500 challenge a few years
back, and the owners souped it up with a Turbo GLX motor or something.
They got the thing into the 11's on the drags. WOW.

regards,
rml
TR6's
