I'm so pissed that I never got to see it run... that time at Cayuga when you blew one of the rear CV joints (?) I was getting all excited just hearing that turbo spool up and seeing the suspension hunch down as you applied power at the line... then the light turned green and you moved like 2'. Ah well.
