I was looking at DrScramJet's photo of the Boss 302 Mustang. That was one of my major dream cars when I was in Hight School, that and the Hemi 'Cuda or the 440 six pack Charger.
If you are as young as you feel, then I'm not so young. I used to ride my bike up Trail Ridge Road, in RMNP, every year. I might still be able to do it, but the roads gotten a lot steeper and longer since I was in my twenties and thirties.
One of the Datsuns, can't remember if it's the 510 or what, was very successful at racing because the sheet metal was very thin. A real rust bucket, but it was fast. I remember an Opel sedan being a very successful racer too. I doubt if many young people know the Opel either.
