Adam, The Sprint has no problem keeping up with modern traffic in all conditions, it truly was a car way ahead of its time. Obviously up against a corvette at the traffic light GP its going to get spanked. Driving in New England is pretty crap really there are just no open roads to let rip, there are houses lining every road you come across, the zoning laws allow houses everywhere and everyone wants there couple of acres! There's no getting to the edge of town and finding good clear roads
ordinary Yank cars I've had the misfortune to drive, even though they have good sized engines are pretty gutless when all is said and done, but most of them have been autos. I'm sure the sporty ones are better, but not had an oportunity to drive any. Jap cars or giant pick-em-up trucks seem to be the order of the day for ordinary folk, neither of which appeal to me.
I really look forward to getting back home and going out for a blast down some country lanes.
Cheers
Mark
