What would be really neat is to make a 1/3 scale Merlin and put it in the
Sprite.
Let's see, the original made around 1200 hp. A third of that would be about
400hp. I could live with that. Heck even 1/4 scale would be fine.
Also, I seem to remember a Road and Track issue from the 70's where they put
a real Merlin in a Jag XJ.
