Heh-heh. My mom had an R15 for a while as I was growing up. Probably in the range of '73 or '74. It was bright yellow, and pretty cool for a mom-mobile, I thought.

The Gordini was the R17, at least here in the US. I honestly don't know if the Gordini was a special package R17, or if they just called them all R17 Gordini's. I had Momo 'web' style wheels on it, similar to BMW wheels.

My girlfriend at the time had a Renault LeCar. We, ummm, managed to pass the time in that car a few times. I couldn't do that now, of course, although I'd be willing to try! I just recently got in contact with her via e-mail after about 18 years. She said every time she sees a LeCar (which couldn't be much) she thinks of me. Isn't that sweet?

Rich, good to see you around "The Network" again. Don't stay away so long.

My "acrobatics" were performed in my Mom's red VW fastback. I never knew just how "unbendable" those seatbelt buckles poking up from between those front buckets were, until . . . .

Oh, never mind. It's too late to flash back.
