I am convinced he will get there. Just have to get all the new technology way of thinking out of his head.
Yeah the Viper. While you guys are working out the ignition timing I have to tell my Viper story.
I had a friend a few years back that was into buying and selling used high-$$ performance cars. It was great fun for me because I got to drive cars that people dream about. Mostly European exotics, but he also liked Shelby's and had a 67 Cobra GT500 (just like Elanor) for a while. But the baddest car he ever bought was a Viper that was re-worked by the Shelby shop. Carroll even signed the dash. The torque and power were insane, actually very scary for a street car. And it had the most incredible sounding racing lope. The European cars were fun, but in my mind the Viper was the real deal. I really wanted that car but no way I could justify the cost, especially for a car that was barely street-worthy. Since then I've always wondered what a normal (not race-prepped) Viper is like but never have had the opportunity to drive one.
Wish you were bit closer Darth
