I've mentioned before the 2275, in my '67 square was the first big motor i've ever had.
Today, I was moving it out of the driveway so my wife could go somewhere, and I just followed her out of the neighborhood for the fun of it, she stopped and asked how far I was going to follow her, but before I could answer she challenged me to a race.
She and I have always thought our VR6 Jetta was pretty fast even though it's an automatic.
Needless to say, I beat her in a short dash or I wouldn't be telling this story.
She pulled up with her Jaw dropped, I'm pretty sure she thought she was going to beat me.
I asked her if she even tried, she said she had it floored.
heh. fun. fastest air cooled car I've ever been in. I guess the darkside is winning points with me.
[ but don't worry Jim, I still have my '72 FI square, which I also love. ]
