[Vintage-race] FW: Vintage Racing Gremlin

[Dave Mapes]

A freimd of mine in high school had a hot rodded 6 Cyl Gremlin that was 
pretty quick and handled and stopped well enough that he didn't kill 
himself or anyone else with it.  It was fairly light and ran low 14s at
75&80 Drag-A-Way.  Good use of space in that car too; it regularly used to 
take 4 of us from suberban DC to PA to go skiing.
