At VTR in Lake City Florida this past Oct. the Ro-Spit was there for the
auto crossing, it ran 5 times with 4 different drivers, the fastest Spit I
have ever seen, it spun out on 4 of the 5 runs, and this was with some
extremely well known drivers, it was just so fast and the horsepower vs. the
weight it seems not to match up. Now I am not a racer or have I ever been
involved in it, so I do not have any idea how these things are matched-up, I
remember back in the 50's & 60's they were putting jet engines in racers,
they had problems keeping them on the road to, neat car, neat set-up.  "FT"
