although pete makes a good point, i have to agree with kuan and carleton, the reporter didnt accurately portray the situation. reporters tend to grab a factoid and spin it a bit to make it sound sensational.

it is clear from looking at that fine little machine that that fellow had some awsome skills and some perserverence.

i would ride in it without fear.

and i bet the suspension can be sorted by a good alignment man and the car will handle great.

i would be interested in owning that little jewell.

the windshield is at least 1/3 too tall though!
