    My father about 30-35 years ago bought one and used it for racing at Mansfield Motorsports Park when it was still dirt (and long before NASCAR ever came there). He converted it to use fuel injection and it won every race it entered. It was also finished in blue motorcycle engine paint that took over 3 weeks to dry.
    Power to me is having the ability to make a change in a positive way. Don't dream it, be it.

    Have you got any shots of that car?

    No Audis raced back then--the were about as rare as Peugeots were back then (this being the 1970's), and I don't think that photos exhist of the car. It was bought, and was considered probably to be sold for scrap until my father and uncle decided to bolt a rollcage in it and race it.

    The times when Peugeot made decent looking cars...
    However, can anybody tell me how big this car is? Looks like it's the size of a 70's Audi 100.
