If someone wants to do the leg work I would buy one of those shirts (assuming they aren't a ton of money). I'm an XL, btw.

Cafepress is easy. Someone designs it and anyone can order one for themselves.

Oh wait, is Marc's DD faster than his track car these days?
Nothing wrong with having a faster DD than a track car. Us gentlemen being car enthusiasts, it would seem that we would want a fun to drive car to drive to work everyday. The track car would then be faster (on track) but not by a HP basis per say.

for a DD car, i want something thats safe, reliable, comfortable, good gas mileage. i dont care if it's fast as long as it handles decent enough that i can do evasive maneuver without flipping the car. if i only had one car for DD and track, then the criteria will be different.

Agreed. Having the option or ability to own two cars changes everything. I didn't have that advantage, which is why I think so many of us chose the Evo. It's a perfect blend of DD fun, practicality (debatable in terms of comfort, not function), and racing. It truly is one of the best all around cars ever made.

WRONG!!

driving at the limit is a 105hp miata is more fun than driving 6-7ths in an EVO. sayin.
WRONGChu only drive 3ths in ur evo!
