Is this normal, or am I really that sick?

I believe those are the immortal words of Freiburger and Dulcich when they were autocrossing a beat up duster on power tour a few years ago. my stock slant6/A833OD/3.23 rear duster is almost more satisfying to drive than my 5.7 hemi charger R/T....
Jay Leno says it too. I’ve been saying it since the 80s. So, someone else must’ve said it too. I had a 74 Mustang II with a four-cylinder and a four speed. It was extremely slow, but you could power shift through the gears and when you got into fourth, you were doing 38 mph! My buddy would pull the handbrake briefly to chirp the tires on the gear change. Lots of other stories with that car too. My current street-strip Duster would be dangerous to drive fast on the street, not to mention totally irresponsible.
A lot of lives were probably saved during the malaise car era.
