I got some 1200 parts from this Silvia's owner who is from South Africa. He also has a 1200 ute with a SR20DET that he describes as brutal, acceleration like being shot out of a cannon. The Silvia is slightly more docile but has a RB26 Skyline engine.

A show car class '57 Chevy trailered northbound on I 35 North of Denton TX. I see lots of awesome classic cars on this stretch of road due to the proximity of Texas Motor Speedway (15 miles), and North Star Drag way (5 miles). Unfortunately, they are usually going in the opposite direction. The rules of Ratsun are: No pic, didn't happen. Got lucky on this one.

Original condition 1964 Studebaker Cruiser driving down US 287 to the Childress TX Walmart. In the Rain. Guess he was working on the patina. Owner was irritated about being stalked and asked questions. If you don't want to attract attention, then don't drive a Studebaker to Walmart. Childress has so many antiques driving around, I guess he thought it was no big deal. I haven't seen a Studebaker on the road in at least 20 years. It was a big deal to me because my Dad was into Studebakers before he was into Datsuns.

This is a nearly 400HP Atom. Twincharged GM EcoTec. Too much craziness to list.
